Congratulations to Ringo Starr, who is celebrating his 80th birthday today with a huge virtual birthday celebration which can be viewed on YouTube television at 8:00 tonight. It will include Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh, Ben Harper Sheryl Crow, Gary Clark, and Sheila E and will benefit Black Lives Matter, the David Lynch Foundation, MusiCares, and WaterAid. Ringo is featured prominently in my collection, with several live recordings taken from his annual All Starr tours and individual shows from the seventies. They are among some of my best live recordings? Check out his biography to learn more.
