4: John Paul George Ringo Tracklist
4: John Paul George Ringo is a digital extended play compilation released on 23 September 2014, as a free download by the iTunes Store. It features one solo song by each former member of the Beatles: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. It is the first official release to bring together their solo material (though two Starr solo albums, Ringo and Ringo’s Rotogravure, and the 1996 Carl Perkins album Go Cat Go! featured contributions from each of the four).
The EP was released to promote the iTunes remastering of several solo albums by each former Beatle.
The cover of 4: John Paul George Ringo echoes that of 1, the Beatles' 2000 compilation. Where 1 features a red cover with a large painted numeral 1 and the credit “The Beatles”, 4: John Paul George Ringo features a blue cover with a large painted numeral 4 and the former bandmates' first names. The cover also includes solo-era portraits of each of the four.
While all of the tracks were well known to fans, only Starr’s “Walk with You” had been released as a single, and none were among the artists' best-known hits.
