Power To The People is Johns fourth solo single, written after conversations with Tariq Ali and Robin Blackburn, activists and writers for the communist. Released as part of Apple/EMI's extensive 2010 John Lennon remasters series, the single-disc Power to the People: The Hits covers familiar territory, but then again, that's the point of this collection.
