This isn’t the first solo Beatles’ song to be listed and it won’t be the last, but it is likely to be the only Ringo Starr song. It feels like this song primarily came from the mind of George Harrison, and Starr admitted that Harrison co-wrote it, but nevertheless it is well performed by Starr.
I will admit that after the breakup of the Beatles, I was ready to move on to other music and there were few songs that were done by individuals that really resonated with me at the time. By the mid 70s I was ready to listen again and particularly enjoyed what George Harrison did after the Beatles.
But this Starr song broke through in the early 1970s for me. Definitely makes this list.
