2019-10: Novo álbum de Ringo com convidados...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-7610757/Ringos-Beatles-reunion-album-sort-ADRIAN-THRILLS-reviews-Whats-Name.html

Citando:
"Ringo, 79, gets by with a little help from his friends: good old boys like Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh and Toto’s Steve Lukather.

There’s even a Beatles reunion of sorts. Grow Old With Me was one of the last songs written by John Lennon, with the original only emerging four years after his death. 


Starr covers it with help from McCartney, who plays bass, and Jack Douglas, whose string arrangement contains a line from George Harrison’s Here Comes The Sun.


You do, admittedly, have to listen hard to hear Harrison’s familiar melodic refrain, but it is in there, giving the album its nostalgic centrepiece.


‘It’s not a publicity stunt,’ Ringo insists. ‘It’s what I wanted. So, in a way, it’s the four of us on there.’ His vocal range is limited, but the song is a tenderly sung highlight."

2019-10: The Bootleg Beatles...

... no Royal Albert Hall (!!!):

Citando:
"And In The End … was billed as a 50th-anniversary celebration of the final Beatles albums, Abbey Road and Let It Be. But the title (a quote from Abbey Road) is a misnomer. There is no end to the Beatles in sight. Earlier this month, Abbey Road itself returned to the top of the British charts, a demonstration of the apparently bottomless appetite for anything to do with the Sixties superstars."

2019-09: Novo álbum e novo livro de Ringo

https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-49991164
Citando:
"The star was speaking ahead of the release of his latest book, Another Day In The Life, which is the third in a series of collections of his own photographs - charting his life from childhood up to recent tours with his current group The All-Starr Band.

The band also play alongside Ringo on his new album, his twentieth, entitled What's My Name?

It sees the drummer working with a huge cast of collaborators including The Eagles' Joe Walsh, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers' keyboardist Benmont Tench and, on the song Grow Old With Me, his former bandmate Sir Paul McCartney.

"It's the best. I love playing with him," Ringo says of teaming up with his old friend. "We played a lot together in 'that band' and he's still in the most melodic player. He's still incredible, for me, I feel the emotion when plays.""

Citando:
"Agora, uma reedição de luxo do álbum foi lançada para marcar seu 50º aniversário, levando "Abbey Road" de volta ao número 1 das tabelas de vendas 49 anos e 252 dias depois, num feito certificado já como um recorde de Guinness.


O álbum dos Beatles desalojou no topo Liam Gallagher, o ex-Oasis influenciado fortemente pela herança do famoso grupo de Liverpool e que lançou recentemente o segundo álbum a solo: "Why me? Why not"."

2019-09: About Sun King

Some interesting comments of Lennon on Sun King. The song has one word of Portuguese (which John Lennon didn't knew of, but Paul McCartney knew - because he was in Algarve in vacations and wrote the words for Yesterday there during the trip from Lisbon):
