Being compared to McCartney and Lennon is never really fair. Thus, I write today to give some accolades to a Mr. Ringo Starkey (Ringo Starr). In his solo collection there are some real gems I must say. I have posted a couple below and implore you to give a listen. Photograph has a very cerebral sound that juxtaposes the melancholy lyrics perfectly. It Don’t Come Easy has a one of my favorite lines from a song right in it’s chorus. That’s a plus. I also threw in the track by Bob Dylan during the opening credits of Big Lebowski for good measure. Just a classic tune in a classic intro. Okay, now join me below.

Hey there. I would to get my hands on ‘The Man in Me’ but the link isn’t working. Any help possible for a big fan? Forever grateful. Thanks!
I would *love* to. Sorry.
I love the Beatles. It’s a family tradition for us to sing their stuff on the holidays. I love this exciting (and funny) recent Ringo Starr Video too! http://bit.ly/WIuNW
