As a Philatelist, I'm pleased that the Beatles are giving "props," as the kids like to say, to the wonderful world of postal history.

Beatles 65
Beatles 6
Beatles 1

Obviously, as the Beatles became bigger and bigger and bigger, the Royal Mail had to give them their own postcode, until, as shown, they not only received the prestigious postcode 1 for their very own, but they also received their very own postage stamps complete with the silhouette of HM The Queenll!!!!!

Good to hear another Ringo title is on the way. I wonder how many different packages this one will come in? I, for one, will not purchase on the day of release. I will wait and see if any tricks will be coming in the way of marketing.

Wasn't "Choose Love" released in just the one edition?

You're correct. "Choose Love" only came out one time, in the dreaded Dualdisc format. His previous one however, "Ringorama" came out in a special edition around a year later after it's initial release...

Jeff

Jeff,

There was also a standard CD version of Choose Love, but I believe that it was released simultaneously with the DualDisc.

I got the standard redbook edition of "Choose Love".

I read, I think in RS, that Ringo and Mark H had a major falling-out and MH would not be in the Roundheads or producing him anymore.
--please correct if I am wrong
--also, Chose Love did come out in two editions to back up the already corrected.

Thanks for correcting me guys, on that "Choose Love" came out in a standard edition. I had no idea since every store I went to only had the Dualdisc version. I went out looking for the standard and finally gave up and got the DD when I figured the other didnt exist.

Yes, Ringo and Mark didn't part on good terms. Mark was supposed to tour with the All Starrs, and backed out at the last minute to appear as a judge on some British version of "American Idol" which bombed anyway.
I had tickets to the Chicago show, and he was even in the advertisements for it in the papers. He was replaced by Hamish Stuart at the last minute.
Apparantly you don't cross Ringo. Clarence Clemons was set to appear in the second edition of the All Starrs when he backed out. He was never asked again...

Jeff

The standard edition of Choose Love is harder to find than the regular one. And when I have seen it, the price is the same as the Dual Disc version.

Looks like you're right about that, Rich. I've updated the first post with Amazon's description, and it only mentions Dave Stewart's involvement, not Mark Hudson.

On January 8th in the UK, a one-track CD single (yes, only one track) will be released of the song "Liverpool 8":



Edit ~ this is now a TWO track CD single.

UK CD pressing of the this single from the legendary Ringo Starr, lifted from the album of the same name. 'Liverpool 8' is Ringo's first new release on Capitol/EMI since 1974! Features 'Liverpool 8' plus 'For Love', both co-produced by Dave Stewart, who also plays on the tracks. EMI.

I wonder how long it'll be before the Special Deluxe Edition single comes out with two tracks!!

Should be an 8-track cd single. Or wait, an 8-track tape!

or perhaps eight special edition singles, each with a different unreleased b-side, and each one is $8.88

Ohhhh, the Japanese fans would love that. ("8" is considered lucky in the Asian culture.)

BIG BIG NEWS TODAY, Neal and everyone ~ EMI has announced that it's now going to be a TWO track CD single. (But the second track is on the album too, not unreleased. Oh well.)

Meanwhile, Capitol here in the States has already released the song "Liverpool 8" as an MP3 download ~ you can purchase the whole track or just listen to the sample to get a taste of the album. Ringo is in fine voice:

Wow, Linda!! Does that make the unreleased one-track single an instant collector's item?

Oh, man. This is new, at least to me! A USB wrist band version of the album?? Is this the new hot thing? Music you can wear?
