Ringo's 1987 Memphis Sessions

[Fluxus]

I just got a great Ringo bootleg from Ebay (via Russia) called Go Cat Go, which features tracks from the '87 sessions that Ringo sued to prevent the release of. The disc has serveral tracks (including one with Dylan on it) and some studio talk but also Ringo in a Atlanta courtroom testifying about the deal. Very interesting! It also has some Sun Country Classic ads as well as the 1976 Izitso sessions with Cat Stevens that were never released.

Has anyone else heard these sessions?

Yes, I have this material on the Voxx bootleg entitled Lost and Found--The Memphis Album, which also includes a second vol. of George's Cloud 9 Rough Mixes. "Wish I Knew Now (What I Knew Then)" with Dylan is an excellent track--should have been officially released! I have the Sun Country ads, along with various television appearances on the Ghost bootleg TV & Radio Ringo.

From this I only have the sun country classic wine coolers add,from the Orange bootleg, John, Paul, George and Ringo.

I don't have many Ringo bootlegs, since I am not really into collecting unofficial Ringo releases. The Dylan track is one I would like to hear however, and the session with Cat Stevens.

Wow! I've only heard "I Can Help" from these sessions and I've always thought that the voice in there is so not Ringo... but I guess I am wrong, seeing it released in so many bootlegs. I'll have to listen again.

Thanks for posting that CD cover. Mine has the same tracks plus the Cat Stevens sessions. Sound quality is weak, though.

I believe I have seen the bootleg album on a fair or in a store a few times, quite some moons ago. Best way to find out if it is 'in the market' is I believe via Google, Ebay, BaltCD or the official Ringo site which as I recall has a massage board...

Funnily I have that pic of Ringo framed on my wall. I was supposed to get it signed by him but he only signed his album. Oh well. Anywayy off topic I know,sorry.
