Feb. 1987:
Ringo records songs for a planned album at Chips Moman's 3 Alarm Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. Moman served as producer.
April 1987:
A second set of sessions for the album took place in Moman's 3 Alarm Studio. Bob Dylan reportedly participated in one recording that took place on April 29th. Songs from that year's sessions reportedly include "Shoo be doo be doo da day," "Some kind of Wonderful," "Beat Patrol," and "Ain't that a Shame." They were also reportedly videotaped as well.
Mid 1989:
Ringo sues Moman to halt a planned release of the album. Ringo claimed that Moman was attempting to capitalize on his All Star concert tour, which by then was underway. Ringo also charged that the album was done under the influence of alcohol, which by then he had given up after undergoing treatment for alcoholism in October and November 1988 with his wife Barbara in Tucson, Arizona.
July 24, 1989:
In Georgia, Ringo obtained a court order from Judge Ralph Hicks in Fulton County Supreme Court, prohibiting Chip Moman and CRS records from releasing the album he recorded with him in 1987. The court ruling barred Moman from releasing the album for 30 days pending the final ruling.
August 22, 1989:
Two recordings from Ringo's sessions with Moman were played in court to support Ringo's charge that recordings were subpar due to the excessive use of alcohol during the sessions. The songs played were "Whiskey and Soda" and "I Can Help."
August 24, 1989:
Ringo was granted another extention prohibiting Moman from releasing the album based on the sessions.
Nov 15, 1989:
In Atlanta, Georgia, Ringo testified in court that he mostly objected to the timing of the album's release scheduled for August 1989, claimed the sessions produced were sub par due to excessive use of alcohol by band members, he wanted more time to overdub his own drum tracks and that Moman was trying to rush-release an album to capitalize on the success of his All Star band concert tour.

He also said he hadn't played the drums during the album's sessions, required help from Moman's wife (Toni) to complete his vocals, and no record label had been interested in releasing the album during its 2 year dormancy (which caused Moman to form his own label called CRS records in order to try to do so). The court issued an injunction blocking the release of the album for the time being.
Jan 5, 1990:
A court ruling granted Ringo's request to stop Chips Moman from releasing an album he had produced for him in 1987. Ringo was ordered to pay Moman $74,354, which was less than half of the $162,600 in production costs that Moman had asked for.
Jun 4, 1992:
Chips Moman renewed his suit against Ringo in Georgia's Supreme Court, seeking the full production costs he initially asked for.
The album he produced for Ringo remains unreleased."
A nakonec přidám i odkaz na skladbu Some Kind Of Wonderful z tohoto alba:
http://www.imeem.com/people/fFXigzI/mus ... nderful_m/
jedná se o koncertní provedení a byla vydána na americké verzi alba The Anthology ... So Far
Myslím, že je úžasné, že Ringo takhle oficiálně vydal tuhle skladbu pocházející z nevydaného alba Memphis.
