Move over, Ms L!

Hi all, wondering why you are looking at this jumbled up page? This is due to the fact that Facebook didn't like our url since it starts with wog, so we have been forced to move the blog. This was some time ago, and we have placed a script which would automatically send you to our new location. Obviously, this hasn't worked for all of you, since we have just finished moderating some of your comments which appeared on this site recently, and not on our new (and improved!) site. So what we're saying is head on over to our new site, and update your bookmarks!

Ringo - What's My Name

Front of the new Ringo album
The pin Ringo is wearing on the front cover is an official John Lennon pin from the U.S. stamp release from 2018.

There are a couple of Lennon connections on the album, Ringo-versions of Lennon's "Grow Old With Me" and a song John used to sing in the Beatles, "Money (That's what I want)".

The album will be released on CD, on LP and on a limited edition blue LP.

"I'm sure he'll stop when there is peace." That's a classic...

Ringo And his old New Song. The same stuff from around 20 Years. What exactly is peace And love in different contexts? Is good? Is bad? I Love Ringo, but god, the same p&l stuff And songs sounds anacronic.

Ringo pushes the peace and love thing as a tribute to John Lennon. He said something at one point like, that since John was not here any more, he would take up the Peace and Love chant.

Boy, what a band. Each guy in The Beatles had a unique style of vocals, and when they came together... whoa!
