"Since his generally Ho-Hum years of the 80's, Sir Richard has come out with some solid performances: "Vertical Man," "VH1 Story Tellers," "I Wanna Be Santa Claus," and this gem. Honestly, Ringo should have done this a lot earlier in his career. Without a doubt, he would have made a killing. But, then again, better late than never.On this live performance -- one of the most successful in the 1990's -- Ringo is joined by some of the best in the business: Joe Walsh, Burton Cummings, Dave Edmunds, etc. The music on this live performance is electrically solid. This is a good, old-fashioned concert. . . . good music and loads of fun. The "Star(r)s" really enjoyed themselves on-stage. This contributed to the excitement, high energy, and enjoyment of this highly successful tour. I guarantee that your ears will be glued to your system -- from the "Really Serious Introduction" to the "WALHFMF" Grand Finale. Without a single doubt, Ringo and his "All Stars" never sounded better. I only regret that I wasn't there to see this live and in person (of course, being stationed in Korea has its limitations). This CD is well worth owning. It is simply GREAT. Terrific Music. . . . High Energy. . . . . Loads of fun. Where can you go wrong. Buy it today!!!!"

Great CD, docked two stars for...

"...the worst and most insulting liner notes in the history of recorded music. Every member of the All-Starr band from '92 is a great musician, but you'd never know from these wise-guy, unfunny liner notes. These musicians deserve better, Ringo deserved better, and you deserve better."
