При всём уважении к Ринго, такой выбор не уважаю, принимаю смиренно.

Старреет, характер портится.

Интервью канадским СМИ:

RAMA, Ont. - Turns out love really is all you need.

A recent interview with Ringo Starr - in a Canadian newspaper exclusive - begins with a “hospital handshake” (elbow to elbow to prevent germs spreading) while he’s on the road with his All Starr Band but ends with a “peace and love” hug.

The 73-year-old Beatles drummer can’t help but promote his mantra that includes him throwing his 74th birthday at Capitol Records in L.A. on July 7 with a “peace and love moment” at noon.

“You can’t demand peace and love,” said Starr, who launched his latest North American All Starr Band tour earlier this month after five days of rehearsals at Casino Rama, about two hours north of Toronto.

“My thing is I do it all the time. I love peace and love. I have the dream that one day, one minute, the whole world will do it and we will all be in love... I was watching the Today show and Pharrell was on and he did the peace sign so I just like to see people doing the peace sign.”

Starr had good reason to be careful when initially greeting interviewers given his Beatles bandmate Paul McCartney was recently hospitalized with a bad virus that caused him to cancel his entire Japan tour.

“I spoke to Paul,” said Ringo. “Actually, it was weird ‘cause I don’t know the time difference in Japan, I didn’t even look, anyways I just thought, ‘I’ll just leave a message.’ And he picked it up. And I said, ‘Oh, how are you doing?’ And he said, ‘I’m fine. You just woke me up.’ And I said, ‘Well, you picked up the phone!’ Ha, ha! So anyway, he’s doing good. And then I talked to him when he got to England. He’s fine. He’s on the mend.” (Since this interview, Macca has cancelled two more weeks of U.S. tour dates to continue his recovery.)

The two surviving Beatles recently performed together on the Grammys earlier this year which was followed by an all-star salute to the 50th anniversary of The Fab Four landing in America the following night.

Starr said he was pleased with both occasions.

“It’s always fun when we play together but the show was great,” he said. “We were just in that audience like watching the show, but we knew all the songs. But no, it’s always a thrill for me to play with Paul. He did his show. I did my show. Then he’s forced to do A Little Help From My Friends with me if we’re together and then he forced me to do Hey Jude.”

Starr says there’s no “new” Beatles material still to come but “there’s many ways of delivering it. It’s coming out in vinyl. It’s coming out in mono. It’s like it’s gone full circle. It started on vinyl it went to cassette, CDs and now it’s back on vinyl. I love vinyl because I’m from the vinyl end. It took me years to listen to CDs because it was too clean. I really had to listen and listen and listen until I could relax behind it. But I have a huge vinyl collection at home.”

Starr, whose only other Canadian date is July 15 at Vancouver’s Hard Rock Casino, currently sees no end in sight for his music career.

He just added a bunch of October shows in the U.S. after playing in New Zealand, Australia, Japan and South America last year.

And he’s got nine songs for a follow up to his last album, Ringo 2012, and says being behind a drum kit is where he belongs, full stop.

“I keep saying B.B. King’s my hero and he’s a lot older than me (88) and he’s still doing it and yeah he may be sitting down but hey so am I,” said Starr.

“I just have this philosophy as long as I am strong enough to lift the sticks I’ll be able to play. And maybe in whenever years from now, I’ll probably end up in a blues band, playing very slow blues. I just decided a long time ago, when I started doing the All Starrs, that I can do this as long as I can do this. That’s how it is.”

Starr has tweeted out pictures of him recording with various artists for the new record - right now he’s favouring Let Love Lead as a title after one of the songs - due in February 2015, from brother-in-law Joe Walsh to Richard Marx to Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics.

“I’ve sang on six of them. I put brass on, I put guitars on. (All Starr member) Steve Lukather (Toto) and I wrote a track. If you’re in town, I do it at home in L.A., and if you ring the bell and you play, you’re on the record. That’s how it works. We do it in the guest house. I’ve just got a pro-tools set up and in the bedroom we have got two kits of drums and the amp and then we have the board and the vocal mics in the living room.”

Наиболее интересный момент про болезнь Пола:
"Я говорил с Полом. Вообще-то, это было глупо, т.к. я не знал о разнице во времени с Японией, даже не подумал о ней, в любом случае, я просто подумал 'я просто оставлю сообщение'. А он поднял трубку. И я сказал: 'Ну ты как?' А он мне: 'Нормально. Ты меня разбудил.' И я сказал: 'Ну, ты же взял трубку!' Вообщем, он идет на поправку. И потом я разговаривал с ним, когда он вернулся в Англию. Он в порядке, он выздоравливает."

С днём рождения, Ринго!

20 главных песен Ринго по версии журнала Rolling Stone. Не знал, куда поместить. Отдельную тему делать смысла нет - мало ли таких списков. Но может быть любопытно. Так пусть будет здесь.

Ничего страшного. Главное, что заговорили о 20 (!) лучших песнях Ринго. Такое читаешь не часто.

Ринго Старр и Барбара Бах продают около 800 вещей из собственной коллекции. Включая ударную установку 1963 Ludwig, которую также использовал Пол для записи альбома "McCartney".

Over 800 items will be offered Dec. 4-5 at Julien's Auctions in Beverly Hills, California. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the couple's Lotus Children Foundation that focuses on social welfare issues around the world.

Самые интересные вещи из списка:
Ringo's first 1963 Ludwig Oyster black pearl three-piece drum kit that he used in over 200 performances and recordings between May 1963 and February 1964. Paul McCartney also used the set on his first solo album, "McCartney." $300,000-$500,000.

John Lennon's 1964 Rose-Morris Rickenbacker with a fire-glo sunburst finish that he played during The Beatles' 1964-1965 Christmas shows. He made a gift of the guitar to Ringo in 1968. $600,000-$800,000.

A 2000 Mercedes Coupe, first owned by George and acquired by Ringo after the guitarist died in 2001. $60,000-$80,000.
A seven-tom drum kit inspired by drummer Hal Blaine and commissioned for Ringo by George in 1968. Only five sets of the custom kits are known to exist. $10,000-$20,000.
Highlights will be on display for a week at The Hard Rock Cafe New York in Times Square starting Nov. 16. They also will be shown at the Museum of Style Icons in Ireland and at Julien's prior to the sale.
