A great band, and I still love their music, but frankly, I would like it if I never hear another detail about their lives ever again or see McCartney or Starr again.
I love going to those All-Starr Band concerts. You get to see different handfuls of old timers do three of their greatest hits each. Where else could you see Jack Bruce (Cream) perform ‘White Room’, and Gary Brooker (Procol Harum) perform ‘Whiter Shade of Pale’, and Paul Carrack (Ace, Squeeze, Mike + the Mechanics) perform ‘How Long’, ‘Tempted’, Living Years’, and Colin Hay (Men at Work) perform ‘Down Under’ and ‘Who Can It Be Now’, and John Waite (The Babys) perform ‘Missing You’ and Todd Rundgren, Edgar Winters, Joe Walsh, Clarence Clemons, Billy Preston and on and on and on...? No way I would have ever seen all those acts without Ringo putting together a new “band” every two years.
I love those Ringo’s All-Starr Band concerts. ...Seen at least four of them. But then, I’m pretty old.
