Ringo at his best. This album is also so good or better than Time Takes Time, Ringo Rama and Ringo, is much better than Vertical Man and others 70' and 80' Ringo's albums. Now I think both Liverpool 8 and Choose Love are the TOP Ringo Starr albums.

This album has a wonderful collection of songs on it,this is Ringo Starr at his best. Liverpool 8 and R U Ready are already favorites.Keep going Ringo,you Rock!!!!!!

This is certainly as great as any of his comeback works: "Time Takes Time", "Vertical Man", "Ringo Rama", & "Choose Love". Those albums signaled an incredible comeback story for Starr. If Ringo wasn't involved they be great eclectic pop albums. They were, for the most part, the work of the Mark Hudson led collective known as the Roundheads. The new album was started with Hudson, and it has the same great signature feel...like a cross between The Traveling Wilburys, and The Rutles (and that is meant as the highest compliment). Starr has matured and matured as a writer, and his heartfelt and deepeningly Spiritual messages are delivered in clever and enticing ways. Only his 1973 album "Ringo" is outright better than this one. While I may have a personal preference for "Time Takes Time", it'd be hard to choose a "best" album from anything of the quintet of albums he's released during this wonderful Autumnal renaissance.

Well done Ringo hope its no 1 you deserve it.
Brandon S. gave it a7:
Dave Stewart lives out his Beatles fantasy - and good for him! The new single, which Stewart wrote, along with Ringo's lyrics, is a perfect pop song: catchy, full of hooks, and FUN, something pop music has been missing for a long time.
John S. gave it a10:
Ringo has made an excellent album with Eurythmics Dave Stewart. Love the songs, the production and the pure joy of the whole project.
Guy H gave it a1:
Luckiest man in pop. Rubbish drummer, rubbish song writer, rubbish actor, ugly mug, tragic sense of humour, over inflated opinion of himself... and he still has a career in the entertainment industry. Fair play.
