Ringo Starr, the sad-eyed former mop-top with the infectious grin and solid beat turned 70 on July 7. He appeared decades younger than that as he delivered a highly entertaining, warmly nostalgic show at Saratoga's Mountain Winery on Tuesday night. Clearly, he still loves performing, and that passion defies age. The 1960s sentiments of peace and love abounded.
This year's edition of his All-Starr Band provided exhilarating, masterful musicianship and flawless vocal harmonies. Almost as important, these lads were obviously having immense fun.
The All-Starrs consisted of Edgar Winter on keys and sax, keyboardist Gary Wright, lead guitarist Rick Derringer, bassist Richard Page (Mr. Mister), rhythm guitarist Wally Palmar (The Romantics) and, on drums, Gregg Bissonette (who has played with Santana, David Lee Roth, Joe Satriani and Toto. He even survived a stint as Spinal Tap's drummer).
Bissonette handled the thunderous beat when Starr took the mic at center stage. On other numbers, they sat side-by-side, each pounding their kits, perfectly in synch. Judging by Starr's frequently flashed smiles, he enjoyed backing his bandmates as much as he did singing lead.
Starr opened with one of his best singles, 1971's "It Don't Come Easy." Other top-notch numbers from his solo albums included "Back Off Boogaloo," "Photograph" and the more recent "Choose Love." He also offered a couple of tunes from his current "Y Not" album
