From the Album Bad Boy
Ringo was not satisfied with the production of RINGO THE FOURTH, so, while he was recording SCOUSE THE MOUSE Ringo started working on his new material.
Altough Polydor was still in charge of the musical production in the UK, Ahmet Ertegun decided to avoid working for Ringo in Atlantic Records (main distributor of Ringo's music throughout the world.). Ertegun recomended Ringo to work with Portrait Records (a CBS subsidiary)

Starr had more freedom to take his own decisions on the way the album was recorded, so he hired his old friend Vini Poncia to produce it.
The Songs were recorded in Elite Recording Studios (Nassay, Bahamas) and Can-Base Studios (Vancouver, Canada)
During the recording sessions, Ringo recorded two jingles- The Simple Life and I Love My Suit- to promote a new line of clothing for the japanese TV.

  • @szurtospeti Thanks , always happy to meet a Ringo fan !

  • @hairmanjeff

    you are absolutely right! Its a perfect Ringo album!

  • I can't believe it feels so right...

  • I always liked this song ! Bad Boy was underated ! I can always return to Ringo's albums and enjoy listening to them . It's feel good music and it doesn't make heavy demands on the listener . The Lps become like old friends !

  • After hearing Ringo´s Rotogravure and this album I tend to think that Ringo did not fail with his music career because he made bad music, but because he made music which was not appreciated at the time of punk on one side and bands like Led Zeppelin or Queen on the other side, not to mention Abba and so on. In comparison to much of today´s music this is good.

  • bello!!!♥
