About YOKO ONO PLASTIC ONO BAND
Around 1968, Ono decided to create a band “that would never exist… that didn’t have a set number of members… that could accommodate anyone who wanted to play with it.” The name derived from a small three-dimensional work—composed almost entirely of transparent plastic objects—that John Lennon made in response to Ono’s initial idea. Although conceptually Plastic Ono Band had no members, in practice it had a flexible lineup.
