Blueprint for a Sunrise is a 2001 concept album of experimental feminist rock by Yoko Ono. It features live tracks, samples and remixes of previous recordings, and a sequel. The recurring theme throughout is the suffering of women. In the liner notes, Ono talks about the continuing relevance of feminism and "waking up in the middle of the night hearing thousands of women screaming". As of September 2009, the album had sold around 3,000 copies in the USA.[4]
The Queen Charlotte's Hospital tape demo of "Mulberry" was previously released in 1997 on the CD Reissue of Life with the Lions
"I Remember Everything" was written for the play "Hiroshima" (1997) after much coaxing from Playwright Ron Destro. In addition, this song was performed live at the Itsukushima Shrine in Japan 1995.
