Free Music Notes for Old Wave
Free Music Review: Strange and fascinating effort
Hit: 4 Stars
I was able to buy "Old Wave" as an import vinyl back in 1983, and I recall being somewhat disappointed; the mix was bad and the songs odd. Never having been an Eagles fan, the presence of Joe Walsh didn't impress me either. I loved 'In My Car' and 'I Keep Forgettin', otherwise, "Old Wave" was just ok. Years later when it appeared on cd, I found myself a lot more impressed. The production still isn't any good (Ringo's vocals sound good but thin and horribly pinched) and some of the songs are still weird. But age brought a different level of understanding to what was going on here. Ringo wasn't trying to make the charts; he was just relaxing with musicians in the studio and having a really good time. It's true that nearly all of his albums are good-time works, but the 1976-1981 albums also attempted to update his sound for contemporary tastes. And while the bulk of "Bad Boy" and "Stop..." were very successful in doing so (at least artistically), often Starr sounded lost.
Not here. It's just Ringo being Ringo.
If you like Ringo, you'll like "Old Wave". Simple as that.
