Description
10cc's Graham Gouldman releasess 'Modesty Forbids', his first album in eight years and the fifth album of Graham's solo career. With Graham's 10cc tours enjoying ever-increasing success around the world in recent years, in 2018 he was invited by former Beatles' drummer Ringo Starr to join his All Starr Band for tours of Europe and the USA, during which the band played three 10cc songs, elevating Graham's profile yet further.That relationship continues, with Ringo making a very special guest appearance on Modesty Forbids, playing drums on a song called 'Standing Next To Me'.

Graham said, "Playing with Ringo Starr and The All Starr Band was absolutely brilliant, and having Ringo play drums on one of my new album's songs was the icing on the cake. In it, I write about how I came to be asked to join Ringo's band and about my experience of being on the road with him, alongside Steve Lukather, Colin Hay, Gregg Rolie, Warren Ham and Gregg Bissonette, who also plays drums on three of the album's tracks."Ringo Starr added, "It was such a thrill for me to have Graham in my All Starr Band in 2018, with his great songs and great bass playing and his very British personality! And look what happens - he goes home and writes a great song and then asks me to play drums on it! It was my honour because the track is fab and I want to congratulate him on such a good album too.

"Co-produced by Graham Gouldman and Graeme Pleeth, all of the songs on Modesty Forbids were recorded at The Pleeth Station Studios, except for 'Waited All My Life For You', which was recorded at Astral Drive, London. Additional recording also took place at London's Hoxa HQ to complete the track 'That's Love Right There'. The album was then mastered by Miles Showell
