Ringo Starr has revealed that he is currently working on an autobiographical album.
Though the former Beatles drummer has had offers from publishers hoping to release a book, he told Uncut magazine he'd rather tell his own story."I have been offered autobiographies but all they only really wanna know about is those eight years in the Beatles and there would be three volumes before I even got to that."
Instead, he explained that he is "making a record about Liverpool. It's about me and Liverpool. It's like I've decided to do mini-autobiographies, instead of writing a book, I'm doing it on record."
He adds, "Right now, I'd rather put it quickly in a song, snippets of part of my life."
Starr and his All Starr Band will be launching a 27-date tour in Kiev, Ukraine in June. They will play shows in Sweden, Norway, Poland, Britain and Italy before wrapping up in Austria in mid July.
