Ringo Starr, born Richard Starkey, was the drummer in the Beatles from 1962 to 1970 and thus one of the nigh celebrated musicians of the '60s. Though the least prominent member of the four, he grand himself as an occasional singer of good-natured material and as an histrion. Upon the group's split, Starr went solo with 2 freshness projects: the first base, an album called Hokey Journey, constitute him coating pre-rock standards, and the minute, Beaucoups of Blues, was a country medicine compendium.
Starr so scored Top Ten hits with 2 non-album singles, "It Don't Come Easy" in 1971 and "Back Off Boogaloo" in 1972. In 1973 he paired with producer Richard Perry and, with assist from the troika other ex-Beatles, made Ringo, which featured two issue i hits, "Snap" and "You're Sixteen." "Oh My My," a Top Ten hit, was too included. Almost as successful was the 1974 followup, Goodnight Vienna, which featured the hits "Only You" and "No No Song."
Starkey continued to outlet albums through and through 1981, though with diminishing success. His 1983 album Old Wave did not find a U.S. distributer. Starr was also distress from the excesses of his life-style, just by the former '80s he had cleaned up, and in 1989 he toured with his "All-Starr Band."

Vertical Man, his low gear record album for Mercury, followed in 1998, as did a disk culled from his public presentation on the VH1 Storytellers series. Starr's low gear seasonal endeavour, I Wanna Be Santa Claus, appeared a class later. Two studio records appeared during the early 2000s: Ringorama from 2003 and Choose Love deuce long time later. In 2006 he made a guest appearing on Jerry Lee Lewis' album Last Man Standing and toured with another edition of his All-Starr Band, this time featuring Sheila E. and Edgar Winter.
