The Highlights
This album contains Ringo's heartfelt tribute to George Harrison, Never Without You, who died a few months before the album was released. George's pal Eric Clapton adds a nice lead guitar section towards the middle of the song. Clapton also adds solos on Imagine Me There.

Other contributors include Willie Nelson, David Gilmour (Pink Floyd), bassist Charlie Haden, Shawn Colvin and Timothy B. Schmit (Eagles). There is also a small sample of Roy Orbison's "growl" and a few "mercy's" on Memphis in your Mind.

Highlights
George's opening number, Any Road was recorded in 1988 while making the video for Got My Mind Set on You from the Cloud 9 album. The timeframe and general sound and feel of the song suggests that this so was an early intro into what would become the Traveling Wilburys. Co-producer Jeff Lynne and Harrison's son Dhani supply additional vocals and instruments while Wilbury's drummer Jim Keltner rounds out the song.

Track 8, Run So Far, is a reprise of Harrison's tune that was done 15 years earlier by Eric Clapton on the Journeyman album which was released in 1989. Absent in this version is Harrison's slide guitar that accompanied Clapton's vocals.
