    Consistency is a virtue in this case: maybe Starr does little more than deliver what he promises, but he does deliver, and that reliability is a comfort in times of uncertainty.

    Okay, Ringo hasn’t made his masterpiece, but then again, a guilty pleasure can be worth savoring in itself. As most of his Starr-struck admirers generally conclude, it can be rewarding to zoom in albeit momentarily, rather than opting to completely tune out.

    Well-meaning and positive, ‘Zoom In’ is the aural equivalent of wishing somebody a ‘Happy Hump Day!’ over email, while wearing a daft grin. For all its flaws, this is a hard record to hate.

    This is an okay EP from Ringo. Not bad or anything; it's just okay. The best song is "Zoom in Zoom Out," which is a simple boogie-woogie typeThis is an okay EP from Ringo. Not bad or anything; it's just okay. The best song is "Zoom in Zoom Out," which is a simple boogie-woogie type song that has lyrics reflecting the state of the world.
