Ringo Starr Plans Autobiographical Album

04/28/2011
. (Gibson) Ringo Starr is working on an autobiographical album about his years in Liverpool, the former Beatle has revealed. As reported by NME.com, the legendary drummer recently told Uncut magazine he prefers to write about his life through music, rather than go the hardback route.

"It's like I've decided to do mini-autobiographies," Starr said. "Instead of writing a book, I'm doing it on record. I have been offered [deals for] autobiographies, but all they really wanna know about is those eight years in The Beatles, and there would be three volumes before I even got to that."

Starr went on. "Right now, I'd rather put it quickly in a song, snippets of part of my life," he said. "Everybody talks about the Cavern Club, but in this new track, I actually mention the Iron Door, which was a much better club. It was more of a real rock club." more on this story
