It is generally considered to be Starr's best & most popular album (it being the
highest-charting and best-selling of his solo career). Ringo is noted for its
numerous guest stars, including fellow ex-bandmates from The Beatles,
something which would become a signature for Starr on many of his future
albums.

As soon as Starr sent word to all his musician friends to help him in his new
venture, they all responded positively. Taking part in the sessions were Marc
Bolan, members of The Band, Billy Preston, Klaus Voormann, Nicky Hopkins,
Harry Nilsson and Jim Keltner. Additionally, all three of his former bandmates
(John Lennon, George Harrison and Paul McCartney) appeared on and
composed material for "Ringo", and Starr, Lennon and Harrison appear
together (with Voormann and Preston) on the Lennon-penned song "I'm The
Greatest". Not surprisingly, when word of the session hit the media, furious
Beatles reunion rumours (the first of several) began spreading. It would be
the closest to a Beatles reunion until The Beatles Anthology project in 1996.

The experience of making "Ringo" was an enjoyable one for Starr and all
involved, with its wide acceptance only furthering his personal feeling of
success. Upon its November release, the critics were very warm in their
appraisal, with "Ringo" reaching #7 in the UK and #2 in the US and going
platinum. Singles "Photograph" and Starr's cover of "You're Sixteen" both
went to #1 in the US, while becoming Top 10 UK hits.
