Does anyone else own this? I picked it up recently because I had none of his solo stuff until then.
I must warn you; if you hate fun, don't buy it. Otherwise, get it. When I first opened it and popped it in the CD player, I kept saying to myself "yeah, I remember this one!" on every song.
My wife came down into the "man cave" and said, "is that Ringo?" Even though John is her favorite singer/songwriter, Ringo is her favorite Beatle. When I showed her the cover, she said, "let me grab a couple of cold ones and I'll join you!" Have I mentioned in the past 5 minutes that she's a keeper? Anyway, I started the disc from the beginning and we sang and laughed and had a great time. I've listened to it at least 4 times since and love every song on it.
But, again, heed my warning. You may not like it if you hate fun.
To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

Didn't Ringo have more Top 10 singles than any other ex-Beatle by 1975 or something? I think I read that somewhere...that's a pretty good collection, but 1973's Ringo is worth owning too!
Someone said 'What were you gonna do when it's all finished,' and I said 'I don't know but it'd be good fun being a DJ.' And since then I've become a DJ, only by word of mouth, you know. SO any minute now you'll read, 'Ringo leaves to become a DJ' but it's not true. - Ringo Starr

I don't actually have the album but I've heard most of the songs on it. I just love Ringo's solo songs, most of them are just so much fun. But Photograph does kind of make me sad when I hear it. (And that's been a lot lately. Thanks Oldies 94.3)

Um. I always thought "Don't Pass Me By" sounded cowboy-ish. Because of the fiddle. 🙂
If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.

Speaking of country music, I checked out Beaucoup of Blues...not great. Unless you like the genre more than I do, maybe.
