ON THIS DAY IN BEATLES HISTORY: November 14th 1969; Ringo is in further recording sessions for his first solo album Sentimental Journey, released in 1970, as the band was splintering apart. Although Starr was the third member of the group to issue solo work (after George Harrison and John Lennon), Sentimental Journey is notable for being the first non-avant-garde studio album by a member of the band, in light of the experimental, soundtrack or live releases his aforementioned bandmates had already released. Paul McCartneys debut, McCartney, would follow three weeks after Sentimental Journeys release. Recording of the album was completed in early March 1970, with Sentimental Journey being rushed out a few weeks later to avoid clashing in the shops with the Beatles impending final album Let It Be in May. Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?(not the Van Morrison written version) is a popular song written by Scotty Wiseman and published in 1945. It was the greatest hit of Wiseman and his wife and one of the first country music songs to attract major attention in the pop music field. Heres Ringos version of Have I Told You Lately That I Love You from Sentimental Journey..... Enjoy!
