Album Details:
Live at the Rosemont Theatre, Chicago, August 2001. Featuring: - Ian Hunter, Greg Lake, Roger Hodgson, Sheila E.and Howard Jones. King Biscuit Flower Hour Presents Ringo Starr and his all Starr Band. 'it's the Same Dream I've Had Since I was Young, I Wanted to Be a Musician and Play with Great Players, and That's What I've Done. Drumming is My Madness, Music is My Passion'. ...and With that Ringo Starr Announced his Seventh all Starr Band. The 2001 All-starrs were Certainly the Most Eclectic and Possibly the Most Accomplished of Ringo's Post-beatles Touring Groups. Vcomprised of 1970s Rock Heroes Greg Lake (King Crimson, ELP) and Roger Hodgson (Supertramp), the Inimitable Ian Hunter (Mott the Hoople), Former Prince Percussionist Sheila E., 1980s Synth-popster Howard Jones and Multi Instrumentalist and Long-time Ringo Accomplice Mark Rivera (Billy Joel), the All-starrs Toured America to Packed Houses Throughout the Summer.

First - it is hard to listen to Ringo's songs, many of which are ratcheted down several steps so that he can reach the higher notes. And - the background vocalists are hard to take on the Beatles songs. Sometimes they are Americans that you can tell are trying to sound like Liverpudlians John and Paul.
The highlights on this are the non-Ringo songs. Yes - Felix Cavaliere pretty much carries the entire set. Raining in my Heart is another pinnacle. Timothy B. Schmit sounds great. Peter Frampton is pretty good. Iko Iko rocks.
But I agree with other reviewers. Good golly, Joe Walsh - what the heck are you doing singing Henley songs? Please . . . no, no, nooo!
And Todd Rundgren - no, it is never time to get "stupid". Give it a break!
But you can hear the band having a blast throughout, and you really want to be there live, hearing these legends playing on stage together.
When you listen to this entire 3 CD set, and place the very first CD in, you're thinking, "Oh brother, here we go - for the subsequent two and a half hours I gotta listen to this." But as you go through it you find yourself paying attention and . . . enjoying it. By the time the last track on the 3rd CD plays out, you actually start to miss it a little.
I know - no one's forcing you to listen to the entire thing, but in my case I try to get to this one at least once a year, and I always listen for something different.
All in all - thank you Ringo, for bringing us your music in this novel form. It is not as well-produced and crisp as the VH-1 Storytellers (which is done with more respect and love for the Beatles) - and for Beatles covers, this album always falls short. But the covers of most of your guest artists are a real treat, in most cases.
But there are WAY better live albums out there for Beatles fans: the 5 stars: Concert for George, Tripping the Live Fantastic; and 4 Stars: VH-1 Storytellers, Paul McCartney Unplugged, Wings over America, George Harrison Live in Japan, and Paul is Live - - - that the Ringo Anthology simply does not rise to those other stellar levels.
I will relegate it to a 3-star, with John Lennon's Live in New York City and Live Jam.
I would only recommend this CD set to fans of the Fabs, whose favorite Beatle was Ringo. The rest of you are taking a chance.

With so many different versions of some songs available, and some left off competely (Octopus' Garden, Goodnight, Conquistador, etc.), this is a huge and welcome addition to any Ringo (or classic rock) collection--but even at the risk of repeating several songs, the alternate versions of some of Ringo's classics with different line-ups, plus the extra material not used (partially for that reason) beg for a sequel!

These 3 CDs contain the very best of Ringo Starr And His All-Starr Band from 1989 to 2000. With performers like Joe Walsh, Randy Bachman, John Entwistle, Billy Preston, and so many other rock greats, there is something to please almost every rock music fan. Many rock classics are played, such as "Life in the Fast Lane," "Takin' Care of Business," "Will it Go Round in Circles," "American Woman" and "I Feel Free." Not to mention Ringo's own songs, which include "It Don't Come Easy," "Photograph," "Back Off Boogaloo," and his usual assortment of Beatles songs. This CD is an absolute thrill for any rock music fan.

This neat and convenient 3-CD package contains the best of his All-Starr Band tours from 1989-2000. You get to hear all of Ringo's big songs, including "Photograph," "It Don't Come Easy," "Yellow Submarine," "Back Off Boogaloo" and more. Ringo sounds stronger on this CD than he did on his 2001 or 2003 tours. Maybe age really can hit a Beatle! After all, he is 65 now. The other performers are quite good too. I really liked John Entwistle's "Boris The Spider" (I am a huge fan of the Who also). Other reviewers have complained about sound quality, but I don't think it's that bad. But then again, I spend a lot of my time listening to bootlegs, so maybe I'm just used to it.

I highly recommend you purchase this CD & the accompanying DVD. Great songs, (all of which you will know) played by musicians who obivously checked the own indivdual egos at the door. My only complaint about the CD (and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5) is first, the engineering & mixing of these songs. In some cases the volume level of these songs are so low, you really need to crank your stereo to hear properly. Then the subsequent song will come on, and your speakers just shake your room because of the volume levels being set to high. Secondly, in some cases the vocals are lost behind the instruments. Lastly (and this is just my own personal opinion) the CD was great listening too, until the end of disc 3. I never was a fan of Eric Carmen, and his 2 songs at the end of the CD just ruin a fun filled CD. His songs just bring the CD to a screeching halt. I would have loved to hear Joe Walsh's Rocky Mountain Way, or additional songs from Billy Preston and/or Burton Cummings, who only received 1 song from each. Other than that, I still highly recommend buying this CD. It's not only great listening, but it's historical too!
