*First off, I think there are four unqualified masterpiece tracks on John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. Those four tracks are 'Mother', 'Isolation', 'Love', and 'God'... I give them all 5 stars meaning Excellent.....
*
*'Remember' and 'Hold On John' get four stars which translates to Very Good... 'Remember' is closest to 5 star territory for me but 'Hold On John' is a solid charmer..
*
*
*
*'I Found Out' and "Well Well Well' get 3 stars meaning Good...
*
*
*'Look At Me' and 'Working Class Hero' get 2 stars , meaning Okay or fair...
*
*
*No total duds on this album...

"God", "Remember", "Isolation", "Working Class Hero", "Well, Well, Well", and "Look at Me" get 5 stars in my book. I think those are the most intense songs on the album and maybe the most intense Lennon ever wrote. With years of data, I'd say "Remember" is the song I have listened to most from the album.


"Mother", "I Found Out", "Hold On John", "Love" get four stars for me. They're good songs but I don't quite put them at the level of the others.

All in all this was John Lennon's best album as far as I'm concerned.
