If there's a tour, do you think that the Stones will be invited as special guests? But only on two songs of course!

Sorry tatters, but Ringo's 70's solo stuff was way better than Wyman's!

Isn't Ringo the most successful of the ex Beatles or Stones in his solo career?

Hard to believe it's the same man who (or so he claims) came up with the JJF riff ;-)

I thought it Don't Come Easy, Photograph and the No No Song were all top 10, and that Ringo has had a hugely successful career on the road.

Yeah, he was doing great in the early to mid 70's, but after Ringo's Rotogravure his career tanked. He never had a top ten hit, nor sold much albums.

Got no reason to believe that he didn't come up with it

Singles wise Ringo was the most successful is the first couple of years post split.
The big difference between Bill and Ringo is the Stones toured without Bill. The Beatles would not have been the Beatles without Ringo.
Ringos solo career was over by 1975.

I don't care enough to research this, but Ringo has had a lot of hits, the most consistent career and made a shitload of money on the road. Sounds like you know, but I would have guessed that Ringo had more no. 1's.

I gave all of Wyman's albums complete spins atleast once, and that was it. I can't handle the cheesy music he produces, but I have great respect for the man as a player! Extraordinarily underrated bassist.

He had a pretty good run. Seven consecutive Top 10 singles from 1971 to 1975, but he hasn't seen the Top 30 since 1976, and many of his later releases failed to make the charts at all. Tellingly, the Apple compilation, Blast From Your Past, released in 1975, contains all of his major hits.
