Vinyl LP Features Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh, Dave Stewart, Edgar Winter & More!

Ringo Star's 20th studio album was produced in his home studio, Roccabella West. The new album features a guest appearance by Paul McCartney as well as contributions from other friends such as Joe Walsh, Edgar Winter, Dave Stewart, Benmont Tench, Steve Lukather, Nathan East, Colin Hay, Richard Page, Warren Ham, Windy Wagner and Kari Kimmel.

"I don't want to be in an old-fashioned recording studio anymore, really," explains the world-famous drummer, vocalist and songwriter. "I've had enough of the big glass wall and the separation. We are all together in here, whoever I invite over. This is the smallest club in town. And I love it, being at home, being able to say hi to Barb [his wife Barbara Bach], it's just been good for me and the music."

The album's emotional center is found in Starr's heartfelt version of "Grow Old With Me", the moving ballad written by John Lennon -- especially as it features their mutual great friend Paul McCartney. The lyric is made all the more poignant by the fact that Lennon never lived to fulfill its title with Yoko Ono, whereas Ringo has been married to Barbara since 1981. "I'm still living that dream," he says wistfully.

What's My Name features another nod towards Ringo's Beatles past in a new cover of Barrett Strong's early Motown gem "Money (That's What I Want)," which the group recorded, with Lennon's lead vocal, on With The Beatles.
