Ringo and Paul back together for “Y Not”

Ringo Starr: Y NotRingo Starr recently recorded his latest album, Y Not, and was joined in the studio by his old friend, bassist Paul McCartney.

“I played him this other track and Paul said, ‘Give me the headphones. Give me a pair of cans.’ And he went to the mike and he just invented that part where he follows on my vocal. That was all Paul McCartney, and there could be nothing better,” Starr said. “It makes the song like a conversation between us, and that was Paul’s idea to do his part one beat behind me. That’s why he’s a gen-i-us and an incredible bass player.”

The album will be released on January 12, 2010 and is available for pre-order.
