Ringo Starr- Liverpool 8
There's a brand new studio album from legendary artist Ringo Starr, entitled Liverpool 8 it features 12 new tracks written and produced by Ringo Starr and Dave Stewart.
And if you are a "diehard, less discriminating, I only care a former Beatle wrote and sung this", fan you may be able to wade through the murky lyrics and push your way through a dozen songs that buck against continuity and any sort of musical framework. However, don't place any strong bets on Liverpool 8 just yet.
Granted, Ringo has never been known as a lyrical genius or even a credible vocalist, so potentially to expect anything more than treacle may be the wrong way to go with Starr. As a drummer, he is certainly solid if a bit unimaginative and if only listening for that aspect, Liverpool 8 is a good enough showcase for the legendary drummer. Still, one would hope that after 50+ years Starr could eek out 12 songs that don't stay firmly tethered in mediocrity ..unfortunately Starr phoned this cd in and the result is a disappointing and egocentric trip through a myriad of insipid songs that are not even saved by Stewart's production.

Liverpool 8 Poster
Brand new studio album from legendary artist Ringo Starr. Liverpool 8 features 12 new tracks written and produced by Ringo Starr and Dave Stewart.Who but Ringo Starr could get away with a syrupy lyric like this: "When I look back / It sure was cool / For those four boys from Liverpool?" The wrap-up line is from "Liverpool 8," the title song from the drummer's autobiographical 14th album: of Rory Storm, of Hamburg, and of John, Paul, and George. Like most Ringo efforts, it won't win any songwriting accolades, but it can be just plain fun. Teaming with longtime collaborator Mark Hudson and producer Dave Stewart (Eurythmics), Starr belies his 67 years with still-solid drumming and an adolescence not far removed from "Octopus's Garden." Emphasis here should be placed on the barroom request "Harry's Song," as well as the seductively Spanish "Pasodobles" and a campy, banjo-led "RU Ready." With its infectious chorus--"Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go"--the latter could be a holdover from the Beatles' White Album and confirms that, be it 1968 or 2008, when you ask for Ringo, it's Ringo you get. --Scott Holter
