We celebrate Ringo's birthday by diving into the solo album that was almost a Beatles reunion: 1973's Ringo. With contributions from John, George, and Paul, Ringo gave fans hope that, although their breakup was acrimonious, the four Beatles might find a way back together. For Ringo, the album, his third, was a triumph after a shaky start to his solo career and produced some of his most beloved tracks thanks to his collaborations with not only the other three Beatles but also a host of who's-who musicians Ringo called friends.
Join us for an in-depth discussion of the Ringo album and what the Beatles were up to in 1973. We also chat about Allison's experience at Ringo's birthday parties in Beverly Hills and THE MAN HIMSELF!!! answers one of our burning questions.
