Following the sell-out success of Postcards From The Boys (2003) and Photograph (2013), Genesis Publications announced on June 6 a new Ringo Starr title, Another Day In The Life, to be published this autumn 2018. This third book will present a previously unpublished collection of his photographs, captioned with his own thoughts and anecdotes.
From today’s announcement: “Reflecting his love of music, travel and nature, Another Day In The Life shows us the world as seen through Ringo’s eyes. From Los Angeles to Tokyo and everywhere in between, many of Ringo’s observational images celebrate the quirkiness of life. Other photographs are taken behind the scenes during historic events, such as Ringo’s acceptance of a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and his return to New York’s Plaza Hotel, 50 years after The Beatles first visited the USA. Joined by Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh and a host of All-Starr friends, Starr shares personal moments from a legendary life in music.”
Starr notes: “I love taking photos of random things, and seeing how they all fit together. Whether it is at home or on the road, certain things catch my eye – and when I see something that interests me, that’s the emotion of it, and I want to capture it. I am a photographer as well as a musician. I love working with Genesis and had so much fun putting this collection of images together, both taken by me + a few collected along the way. I hope you enjoy it too. Peace & love, Ringo.”

Ringo revealed news of the book at a June 6 press conference in Paris, France where he is kicking off his first European tour in seven years at the L’Olympia, with the latest iteration of his All Starr Band that features Steve Lukather, Gregg Rolie, with new member Graham Gouldman and returning All Starr alum, Colin Hay. Also in the band are Warren Ham and Greg Bissonnette.
