Liverpool 8 is
the fourteenth studio album by Ringo Starr. It was released
worldwide on January 14, 2008 (January 15, 2008 in the
United States) and marks Starr's return to EMI for the first
time since leaving the label in 1975, following the end of
The Beatles' recording contract with the company.[1]
Although technically Starr did make a brief re-appearance on
EMI in the mid-1990s, as when his 1981 album Stop and Smell
the Roses and his 1983 album Old Wave (both originally
released on Boardwalk Records) were issued on CD, they
appeared on Capitol's The Right Stuff label. Liverpool 8 was
released by EMI Music worldwide, Capitol Records in the
United States, and Parlophone in the United Kingdom. The
album was originally slated for a June 2007 release, and
began as another production by the collaborative team of
Mark Hudson and Starr (the two had previously co-produced
Vertical Man, I Wanna Be Santa Claus, VH1 Storytellers,
Ringo Rama, and Choose Love). However, the release date was
pushed back to the beginning of 2008 when Hudson was
replaced by Dave Stewart after a falling out with Starr. The
album's production credits read, "Produced by Ringo Starr
and Mark Hudson; Re-Produced by Ringo Starr and David
Stewart." All of the songs but one were written with the
Roundheads, although Stewart also has several co-writing
credits. Starr's attorney Bruce Grakal told journalist Peter
Palmiere that the partnership between Hudson and Starr was
over and they would never work together again. This happened
after Hudson dropped out of Starr's 2006 tour as musical
director to do the TV show The One: Making A Music Star.
According to Palmiere, Hudson now claims that the split was
over Starr's insistence on using synthesized sounds, for
which Stewart is known, whereas Hudson wanted real guitars,
pianos, strings etc.[1] However, about the parting with
Hudson, Starr said (in response to Palmiere's report), "The
separation between Mark Hudson and myself was a question of
trust and friendship and had nothing to do with synthesizers." |
