About the same, maybe a bit better, more consistent. It has a bit more fire, though of course that's very relative in Ringo's world; it's all still very comfortable, laidback, pop. It is definitely slicker, with a bigger sound, and very heavy on nostalgia, though not in an overly treacly way.

Stewart was brought in and gave it a big ol' glossy paint job. Either way, album's pretty much what you'd expect, perfectly charming Ringo, if you like that kinda thing. Which I kinda do.
