The All-Starr Band Concept
Ringo Starr launched the All-Starr Band concept in 1989 as a touring vehicle that brought together rock legends, each performing their own hits alongside Ringo’s Beatles and solo classics. The format — a rotating cast of stars, each taking a turn at the microphone — proved enormously popular and has continued in various incarnations ever since.
The 1995 edition was particularly notable for the presence of John Entwistle of The Who, whose thunderous bass playing on ‘Boris The Spider’ and ‘My Wife’ brought a distinctive edge to the shows, and Billy Preston, whose keyboard work on ‘Nothing From Nothing’ and ‘Will It Go Round In Circles’ connected the tour directly to the Beatles’ own history.
