Choose Love is the 14th studio album by Ringo Starr, released in 2005.

Background and recording

Recorded throughout 2004 into 2005, using the same team that created Vertical Man (1998) and Ringo Rama (2003), Starr produced the set with longtime musical partner Mark Hudson and performed it with their studio team. The title track has a Beatles-like "Day Tripper" guitar riff with a coda similar to "The Word" and mentions the Beatles songs "The Long and Winding Road", "Tomorrow Never Knows" and "What Goes On". As ever, a Starr album would be lacking if it did not include some celebrity guests and Choose Love does not deviate from the formula; it features Billy Preston and Chrissie Hynde as its most notable guests.

Release

Choose Love was released on 7 June 2005 in the US,{{refn|US Koch KOC-CD-550|group="nb"}} and on 25 July in the UK.[1] There was an edition of the album that was a dual disc (CD on side, DVD on the other), with the DVD component featuring bonus features on the making of the album.{{refn|US Koch KOC-CD-9919|group="nb"}}
