This July 27, Hip-O/UMe are proud to announce the release of the Ringo Starr's All Starr-Band "Live At The Greek Theatre 2008" on CD and DVD, also available in 5.1 Surround Sound.
More than a memento of a wonderful show, this is a remarkable playlist of music you know and love which is enhanced by the pleasure the musicians had playing it, and the fun the audience had hearing it. Each All-Starr Tour is unique, a collection of individual musicians who have never come together before and played as this particular band. So each version of their hits has a quality that is distinct to this specific group.

Complimentary lineup,
This review is from: Live at the Greek Theatre 2008 (DVD)
I've been to all-Starr concerts before and find them to be loose and somwhat ragtag affairs. Here as usual Ringo's vocals are wavery and often out of pitch as they are here but that matters not, he is as warm and friendly as ever. This band lineup compliments each other very well instead of drawing attention to themselves and it successfully makes them all stand out. Greg Bissonette's fantastic drumming is the rock that gives the ensemble a reliable center, Ringo's added drumming swings with his classic no-frills style. Edgar Winter looks and plays as good as ever, a very versitile and valuable member to have.
I enjoy this concert dvd more than I expected it's just so enjoyable and full of harmony and good vibes all around. The perfomances I love most of all here are Gary Wright doing "Love is Alive", what a treat, he's smiling and the crowd is having a great time with him, and Hamish Stuart doing the Isley Brothers "Work to do" which is upbeat and played with emotion and feels genuine, really great. Ringo sings a couple of his new solo album songs but they don't do much for me, but that's okay it's his gig. I've played this show a couple of times since I got it and will likey play it often. It's a feel good show with old and familiar songs that would serve well for backgroung to a party that will prick people's ears with new takes of old classics. Very satisfying concert and audio/video quality is excelent as well.

We saw Ringo and this band during the 2008 tour in an intimate outdoor venue in Ohio. When I watch this video it is much like being at that concert. The video is very good and the audio is a cut above a lot of DVD concerts.
Ringo surrounds himself with talented performers and he asks them to play some of their own material so they are not just back up players for the "Starr". It was a great treat to see a "Beatle" in little ole' Kettering, Ohio and then relive a very close representation on this DVD. Wonderful concert!
