Cookin’ (in the Kitchen of Love) by Ringo Starr – ***

First released: 1976

John Lennon’s final studio appearance before he hung up the guitar for (almost) five years. He actually hadn’t recorded anything in almost a year, but somehow Ringo convinced Lennon to produce one last piece of work for "Ringo’s Rotogravure". It’s not too bad of a tune with great piano. I think the female singers kind of blow it for me from making this more of a classic to my ears. The song was also included on "Starr Struck: Best of Ringo Starr, Vol. 2" in 1989.
