Tittenhurst Park - Ringo & 'Photograph'



Ringo bought Tittenhurst Park from John Lennon on the 18th September 1973, and moved his family into the twenty-six room mansion. The recording studio that John had installed was duly named Startling Studio and opened for hire. Ringo also started Wobble Music Ltd., a music publishing company. He also contributed some drum work to George's Living in the Material World which was released that year. With George Harrison and John Lennon, he filed suit against manager Alan Klein. Ringo's hit single "Photograph" was released in the fall, followed later in December by "You're Sixteen." Perhaps the most important event of the year was the debut of his most critically acclaimed album Ringo in November. All three of his former Beatle bandmates contributed tracks and performed on the album. John and George were present during the recording of "I Am the Greatest" making Ringo the closest thing to Beatles reunion that the world would have for a long time.
