Released on October 25, 2019, this album is a testament to Ringos ability to craft engaging songs that resonate with both longtime fans and new listeners alike. Its hard to believe that Ringo has been in the music scene for over six decades, yet he continues to bring a fresh perspective and infectious energy to his work. The album opens with the title track, “Whats My Name,” which sets the tone for the entire record. Its a catchy, upbeat song that features Ringos signature playful lyrics and a driving rhythm that makes it impossible not to tap your feet along. The production is crisp, with a blend of classic rock elements and modern touches that keep it feeling relevant. Ringos voice, while aged, carries a warmth and sincerity that draws you in, reminding us why he remains such a beloved figure in music. One of the standout tracks on the album is “Grow Old With Me,” a poignant ballad that showcases Ringos softer side. Originally written by John Lennon, this song has been given new life through Ringos heartfelt interpretation. The lush instrumentation, featuring strings and gentle guitar work, complements the emotional weight of the lyrics beautifully. Its a song that feels both timeless and deeply personal, reflecting Ringos own journey through love and life. The album also features a collaboration with Paul McCartney on the track “Heres to the Nights,” which is a celebratory anthem that pays homage to friendship and good times. The chemistry between Ringo and Paul is palpable, and their harmonies blend seamlessly, evoking memories of their days in The Beatles. This collaboration is a highlight for fans, as it not only showcases their enduring bond but also serves as a reminder of the magic they created together in the past. Critics have responded positively to “Whats My Name,” with many noting that Ringo has managed to capture the essence of his earlier work while still pushing forward. Rolling Stone praised the album for its joyful spirit and noted that Ringos ability to write catchy hooks remains intact. The album has also been recognized for its production quality, with Ringo working alongside longtime collaborator Bruce Sugar, who has helped to craft a sound that feels both polished and authentic. Another interesting aspect of the album is its inclusion of various guest musicians, including Joe Walsh and Ben Harper, who add their unique flavors to the mix. This collaborative spirit is a hallmark of Ringos career, and its evident that he thrives in a communal musical environment. Each guest brings something special to the table, enhancing the overall experience of the album. Ringos sense of humor and lightheartedness shine through in tracks like “Money (Thats What I Want),” a cover of the classic Barrett Strong song.

This track, along with others, reinforces the idea that Ringo is not just a former Beatle but a vibrant artist in his own right, unafraid to explore different styles and sounds.
