After spending almost 50 years apart musically, the remaining members of The Beatles are reuniting on a new track. We’re On The Road Again will be featured on Ringo’s new album Give More Love which is scheduled for release on September 15th. The last time the two reunited was during the 2014 Grammy tribute honoring The Beatles’ legacy as well as their first performance on The Ed Sullivan Show.
Speculation for the collaboration started when Ringo tweeted back in February, “Thanks for coming over man and playing Great bass. I love you man peace and love.” McCartney has also announced he has been working on a new album although a release date has not been announced.
In an interview with music critic David Wild, Ringo talks about recording the new album, ” “But in a lot of ways, I’ve been playing a long time, I know some really great players, and that really helps. And I do have more energy than I had 25 years ago anyway. Now I make my albums at home. We do it in the guesthouse. I don’t know exactly what I’m going to get each time, but this one seemed to have its own great energy from the start.”
Ringo’s album has a long list of confirmed collaborators, including Joe Walsh, Peter Frampton, Benmont Tench, Edgar Winter, and more.
