Ringo gives his revolving door All-Starr band another go in 2003. But this edition was the least interesting of the batch (now at Volume Five), predominantly because there was a substantial drop-off in the talents — and hits — of the musicians. Percussionist Sheila E. (returning from the 2001 band), bassist John Waite (the Babys), keyboardist/vocalist Paul Carrack, and ex-Men at Work guitarist Colin Hay are the best Ringo could muster up this time. Hence, with the exception of Carrack's "The Living Years" and "How Long," the non-Beatles tracks are weaker than previous All-Starr configurations. Ringo reprises Fab Four chestnuts "I Wanna Be Your Man," "Boys," "Honey Don't," and of course "Yellow Submarine" and "With a Little Help from My Friends," but he sounds like he's going though the motions. "Memphis in Your Mind," from his 2003 Ringorama album, gets a live workup, but it's not a particularly good song — especially with its pedestrian lyrics — and the leaden band doesn't naturally adapt to the rockin' Chuck Berry beat. The sidemen (and woman) play their hits with a modicum of enthusiasm, but in general this has a rather tired and almost depressing by-the-numbers quality that even the jovial Ringo can't quite squash. It's the weakest in the series and shows that the once vibrant All-Starr concept is diluted and no longer as much fun — at least for the audience — as Ringo thinks it is.
