First released: 2005
Well, after three great albums, I guess a little slump is ok. I don’t hate this album, it’s just not as good as "Ringo Rama", "Vertical Man", "Time Takes Time" or even "I Wanna Be Santa Claus". It is better than Ringo’s late 70s/early 80s output, but it seems like Ringo rushed this to meet a contract obligation so that he could jump ship and go back to Capitol Records. The standout tune is "Don’t Hang Up" with Chrissie Hynde and everything else is almost dispensable. It’s not a disappointment for Ringo’s career overall, just Ringo’s current career. The followup "Liverpool 8" is much better.
