Sunday 18 June 1995 | Live | Osaka-jō Hall, Osaka, Japan
Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band performed at Osaka-jō Hall in Osaka, Japan, on 18 June 1995. It was the fourth show by the third All-Starr Band, on a tour of Japan and North America that ran for 50 dates between June and August 1995. Starr had previously performed at the Osaka-jō Hall on 31 October 1989.
The Third All-Starr Band
- Ringo Starr — vocals, drums, percussion, piano
- Randy Bachman — vocals, guitar
- Mark Farner — vocals, guitar, harmonica
- Billy Preston — vocals, keyboards
- Felix Cavaliere — vocals, organ, keyboard, maracas
- John Entwistle — vocals, bass guitar
- Mark Rivera — vocals, saxophone, percussion, tambourine, cowbell, guitar

The lineup was a remarkable assembly of rock history. Randy Bachman had been a founding member of The Guess Who and Bachman-Turner Overdrive. Mark Farner was the frontman of Grand Funk Railroad. Billy Preston — the only artist ever to receive a co-billing credit on a Beatles single (Get Back, 1969) — had been a close friend and collaborator of both Starr and George Harrison. Felix Cavaliere was the vocalist and organist of The Rascals. John Entwistle was the bassist of The Who. Mark Rivera was a veteran session musician and touring player. And Zak Starkey — Ringo's son — played a second drum kit, a feature of the All-Starr Band format that gave the shows a particular rhythmic power.
