Richard Starkey, much better known as the Beatles drummer, Ringo Starr, has just released his 17th solo studio album, Ringo 2012! Ringo 2012 is his second album release on Hip-O/Ume (a Universal Music Company). Ringo produced this album, recorded it in LA and mixed in England along with Bruce Sugar.

The tracks on Ringo 2012 include:
- Anthem
- Wings
- Think It Over
- Samba
- Rock Island Line

- Slow Down
I enjoyed Ringo 2012, it was short (less than 30 minutes) and sweet. I definitely had the "Beatles" type undertones that I love. I think Wonderful might me my favorite track on the album, but I enjoyed the other tracks as well! Ringo fans will love this album and so will many others! Give it a listen!
