On RINGO THE FOURTH, the drummer of the most important rock band of the '60s made a brave attempt to create a sophisticated fusion of soul, R&B and rock. The fact that he failed does not mean that RINGO THE FOURTH will not be of interest to Beatles fans. Starr wrote most of the songs with his producer, Vini Poncia. While the majority of the Starr/Poncia compositions are decent pop-rock, they generally do not measure up to previous Starr/Poncia compositions like Starr's 1974 hit "Oh My My."

Ringo's versions of Gamble & Huff's Philly-soul classic "Drowning In The Sea Of Love" and Allen Toussaint's "Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley" are clearly the best songs on this album and suggest that Ringo may have been better off letting other people write songs for him to sing. Backed by slick LA Session players like drummer Steve Gadd and keyboardist David Foster, Ringo gives respectable vocal performances that stay within his limited range and make the most of his loveable ole Ringo persona.
