Continuing on the “solo Beatles on 45” riff … now that we’ve done Ringo, Paul and George, this is the part where I share the John Lennon 45 in my collection.
Only I don’t have one.
Seriously.
Well, look, it’s not my fault he didn’t release any songs when I was old enough to start buying records. And I liked Double Fantasy, but I got the album, so I didn’t need any 45s.
So here’s the other Ringo Starr single I have.
Well, why not? People always put Ringo down as the one who couldn’t sing – or when he did, sang silly songs about octopus gardens and submarines.
But I like a lot of Ringo’s Beatles songs. And I like this song as well. It’s got a message I can relate to (Feeling down? Play some rock music and let go, that’ll cheer you right up) and some great horn-section fills.
Respect.
Wash it down with cool clear soul,
This is dF
