Ringo Starr (1978) Who Needs A Heart

With a dirty rock guitar mixed with sweet soul instances of saxophones and horns while Vini Poncia adds gentle baking vocals to this interesting track. The central melody is classic pop with Ringo's limited drawl drily delivering with a suggested regret, while his standard beat and the upbeat arrangement towards the end feel like classic Ringo. The best part is the chorus where the backing vocals ask a question before quickly comes in with the answer reminiscent of 'With a little help from my friends' bridge "Who needs a love like yours, that is bringin me down" Splendid and his best from his late 70 slump.
