Stop and Smell the Roses is the eighth studio album by English rock
musician Ringo Starr. Released in October 1981, it followed the twin
commercial failures of Ringo the 4th (1977) and Bad Boy (1978). The
album includes the hit single "Wrack My Brain", written and produced by
George Harrison, but otherwise failed to find commercial success. It
also includes contributions from Paul McCartney, Harry Nilsson, Ronnie
Wood and Stephen Stills.
The album began life in mid 1980 as Can't Fight Lightning, while Starr was signed to Portrait Records. After the label withdrew its support, the project lay dormant until he signed with the RCA subsidiary Boardwalk Records in 1981. John Lennon had been due to participate in the recording, having offered Starr the songs "Life Begins at 40" and "Nobody Told Me", but he was murdered in New York a month before the sessions were to have taken place. Starr was devastated by that news, so he decided not to record either song. Stop and Smell the Roses was reissued in 1994 with six bonus tracks.
