Ringo and His 10th All-Starr Band performed their last show at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, California, on August 2, 2008. With stars above them and all around them, they played an exuberant set that included highlights spanning Ringo’s entire career, from Beatles classics to solo hits. The show at the Greek was the culmination of a fantastic summer playing music on the road.
This July 27, Hip-O/UMe are proud to announce the release of the Ringo Starr’s All Starr-Band “Live At The Greek Theatre 2008” on CD and DVD, also available in 5.1 Surround Sound.
More than a memento of a wonderful show, this is a remarkable playlist of music you know and love which is enhanced by the pleasure the musicians had playing it, and the fun the audience had hearing it. Each All-Starr Tour is unique, a collection of individual musicians who have never come together before and played as this particular band. So each version of their hits has a quality that is distinct to this specific group. There is a palpable exuberance and joy that comes through every one of these remarkable songs:

Ringo has always aspired to surround himself with great musicians and make great music. Each All-Starr tour offers a new and unique opportunity to realize that dream. As Ringo says,” the dream is still coming true.”
Хух. Я как-то увидал по телику его концерт с его "звёздным бэндом". Это травмировало на всю жизнь и крайне ухудшило отношение к самому Ричи. Ужасен был концерт, с тех пор только пару студийников и слушаю. :-) А кому концерты и хороши крайне, тут уж, как говорится, вкусы разнятся.
А что именно было ужасного? За исклчением,конечно,тысячной перепевки "Act Naturally" и "Yellow Submarine"... Я считаю,если Ринго и нужно выпускать концертный альбом,то только если это будет нормальный сольный концерт (типа "VH1 Storytellers") и он вспомнит песни,которые никогда не пел или пел очень редко и давно-с альбомов "Bad Boy","Time Takes Time","Ringo the 4th" и т.д. То,что он опять выпускает представляет лишь коллекционный интерес.
