This is a Collector's Edition, CD plus DVD package.
PHOTOGRAPH: THE VERY BEST OF RINGO is a career-spanning best-of compilation album by Ringo Starr and is the first such album since the releases of 1975's Blast From Your Past and 1989's Starr Struck: Best Of Ringo Starr, Vol. 2. The album was released in the UK on 27 August 2007, and in the US on 28 August. The release of the collection coincided with the reissue of Starr's first four solo albums for EMI, in digital format, on 28 August 2007. The tracks from 1970s and 1980s presented on the compilation featured updated mixes of the songs in comparison to Starr's 1990s CD reissues of his earlier albums. PHOTOGRAPH: THE VERY BEST OF RINGO contains all the tracks that appear on the earlier compilation Blast From Your Past. At last – the talented one from that group of Liverpudlian, long-haired louts gets his due recognition. While his fellow remaining band fellow sells his soul to a large multi-national beverage franchise the former Richard Starkey keeps a relatively low profile. Probably now more famous in the UK for being the voice of a small blue train, Ringo’s career has been kept alive in the States by his road jaunts with a crew of stellar mates in his All-Starr band. But why has the man who had the first post-Beatles solo hit fallen off the radar to such a large extent? How could we forget the most lovable mop top? The clue is in the chronology of this fine compilation of hits and choice cuts from the last 35 years. The conspicuous gap between the early 80s and early 90s. Yes, personal demons (now happily defeated) saw to it that Ringo became the unlovable moptop for a while. But before this unfortunate fall from grace our Ringo was in fact a man who made remarkably fine pop records. Of the eight hits contained here, seven are top tenners. Cleverly he always knew his limitations and wasn’t above a little help from his friends. The cast list on everything from “It Don’t Come Easy” in 1971 to “Hey Baby” from Ringo’s Rotogravure is staggering. Still close buddies with George Harrison and John Lennon, Ringo also could call on seemingly every toast-of-Beverly-Hills legend at the time, including Harry Nilsson, Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Martha Reeves, Jim Keltner, Arif Mardin, Marc Bolan, Elton John and Bernie Taupin…the list is mind-boggling. With this much talent on board no amount of carousing could totally obscure the results. Wisely, a large quantity of tracks come from his finest albums, Ringo (including the wonderful “Oh My My”) and its follow-up, Goodnight Vienna. But you also get the title track from his country project, Beaucoup Of Blues, the autobiographical b-side of “It Don’t Come Easy”, “Early 1970”, and even his collaboration with the criminally underrated Jellyfish, “Weight Of The World”. With candidly direct sleevenotes by the big-nosed one himself, PHOTOGRAPH: THE VERY BEST OF RINGO is a heart-warming reminder that Ringo was always more than a drummer. This CD contains 20 stand out Ringo Starr tracks including seven Top 10 pop hits released between 1970 and 2005 including ''Photograph'', ''It Don't Come Easy'', ''Back Off Boogaloo'' and more! 20 tracks in all. The Collector's Edition DVD includes original promotional films for ''It Don't Come Easy'', ''Sentimental Journey'', and the music video for ''Act Naturally'' with Buck Owens.
