Happy Birthday Ringo Starr!

 

Happy 83rd Birthday to Ringo! (Aka: Sir Richard Starkey). 

 

 

 Album: Ringo - Ringo Starr

 

If you get only one Ringo album I’d recommend this one. I believe it’s the last ex-Beatle solo album to have contributions from all 4 ex-Beatles. Also contributing are members of The Band, Harry Nilsson, Martha Reeves, Billy Preston and Klaus Voorman contributing bass and lithographs shown in the pictures(he also did the cover the Beatles Revolver album). Even ex-Beatles Road Manager/Roadie Mal Evans(look for him in the Get Back film) gets a songwriting co-credit.
