Bemused would sum up my reaction to Ringo Starr's Garboesque wish to be left alone & not sign any more autographs (http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2008/oct/13/ringo-too-busy-autographs ). I suppose the voice of Thomas the Tank Engine, & recipient of a £90,000 stay in his hometown, courtesy of Phil Redmond, would feel a bit miffed at the number of times his scribblings have cropped up on Ebay. However, the question I asked myself was, "What sort of saddo would still insist on getting Ringo's autograph in the first place?"
Ringo's relevance to music was, to use his own delightful term, "tossed" back in the early 70s.
