t looks like Ringo Starr may be ushering a new George Harrison composition into the world.
Harrison's widow Olivia tells The Sun in the U.K. that she discovered some lyrics to a song called "Hey, Ringo" -- which includes the line "Hey Ringo, now you I want you to know/That without you my guitar plays too slow" -- in a folder inside the bench of an old piano and has given them to Starr.
"He'd never seen this song before. He was so surprised," Olivia Harrison said. She noted that her husband "would put down a notebook and forget where he left it. A piano bench was the obvious place to stash the night's debris;" She dates the song to about 1970 and plans to "dig a little" to see if Harrison committed it to tape at all.
There's no word yet on what Starr intends to do with the song; He's been working on a new album with help from Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh, Peter Frampton, Van Dyke Parks and others with no title or release date yet announced.
PAUL McCartney is set to rock AAMI Park this summer.
Concert industry sources say The Beatles and Wings icon is close to locking in long-awaited Australian tour dates in November and December with promoter Michael Gudinski.
If the deal is done, McCartney will play at the venue, which has hosted superstars including Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters and Taylor Swift.
Mr Gudinski, and publicists from his companies Frontier Touring and Mushroom Music Group could not be reached for comment today.
McCartney played a week of shows in Tokyo last month, and will return to the US from July to October with his One On One tour.

His proposed visit to Australia comes 15 years after McCartney abruptly cancelled two nights at Docklands Stadium.
McCartney cited the Bali bombing as the reason and the fact he felt Australia was still in need of healing, not hearing “Hey Jude”.
“This is not the appropriate time for a rock show,” McCartney said in a statement.
He gave no date for a rescheduled event, adding: “In time, that show will hopefully come to be — but for now, my sympathies and those of all of us on this tour are with you all in your grief.”
But long-held rumours suggested the 2002 shows were scrapped because McCartney was struggling to fill seats.

However, after rave reviews for his latest outing with a powerhouse band (Paul Wickens, Rusty Anderson, Brian Ray and Abe Laboriel Jr), expectations are high for McCartney’s first Down Under visit since 1993’s New World tour.
Asked why performing is still vital to him, McCartney told Rolling Stone: “This idea of the great little band — it’s quite attractive. A basic unit is at the heart of the music we all love.”
McCartney, 74, hasn’t ruled out touring at 80, either.
“It used to be that doing this at 40 seemed ... unimaginable — and unseemly,” McCartney said.
“Doris Day ... once said to me, “Age is an illusion.” It’s a big number the older you get. But if it doesn’t interfere, I’m not bothered. You can ignore it. That’s what I do.”

Paul McCartney’s show in Tokyo last month included:
• A Hard Day’s Night
• Can’t Buy Me Love
• Let Me Roll It
• Maybe I’m Amazed
• We Can Work It Out
• Every Night
• Love Me Do
• And I Love Her
• Blackbird
• Lady Madonna
• Four Five Seconds
• Eleanor Rigby
• Band On The Run
• Back In The USSR
• Let It Be
• Live and Let Die
• Hey Jude
• Yesterday
• Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl discussed breaking his leg in a new Absolute Radio interview, which Alternative Nation transcribed.
“Yeah, it sucked. We had 53 more shows, which I sat down in this crazy throne for. But by the time we were done with that tour, I just thought, ‘You know, we need to take a break. I need to learn how to walk again, 6 or 8 months of physical rehab.”
“Basically, I broke it in Sweden. I fell off the stage, the band kept playing. I took a huge hit of whiskey, and then I said, ‘I want to finish the show. So I went up, and I finished the show. I went to this hospital, they took X-rays, they said, ‘You have to have surgery.’ They said, ‘You don’t have to have it today, but you got to do it in the next 3 days.’
So we thought, okay, well let’s fly down to London. But I don’t know any doctors in London, but I have a couple friends there, so I actually texted McCartney and I said, ‘Hey man, do you know any good doctors?’ He hooked me up with this doctor, he looked at my leg and said, ‘I could fix it like that.’ Paul McCartney is not only the most brilliant rock and roll musician of all time, if you have his number, call him and ask him for a good doctor, because he knows a few.”
Like a lot of music executives, Herb Alpert -- whose cover of the Beatles' Michelle" from his upcoming album Music Vol. 1 is premiering exclusively below -- has some regrets when it comes to the Fab Four.
"When people ask me, 'Do you regret anything,' I was thinking, man, in 1962, after A&M (Records) started, the Beatles were hunting for a record company," Alpert tells Billboard. "They were on VeeJay for a while and I guess nobody really was coming to the party. I was thinking, 'Man, if I had flown over to London just to see if we could do something...' but the timing was off. I didn't get them at that moment. I retrospect you think, 'Man, they were available...'"
Nevertheless Alpert -- whose 1966 concert with the Tijuana Brass in London was promoted by Beatles manager Brian Epstein -- remains a professed Beatles fan who's more than happy to have a jazzy take of "Michelle" on Music Vol. 1, which comes out July 28 (pre-order here). The rendition was spurred by a groove presented by album producer Jochem van der Saag (Destiny's Child, Andrea Bocelli). "We were just kicking around some rhythm ideas, and all of a sudden he came up with this groove that just really touched me, and I started playing 'Michelle' over the groove and that started the process," Alpert recalls. "I like to see if I can do a song that's familiar with people and do it in a way that hasn't been done quite that way before. I guess that's one of my thrills."
Music Vol. 1 includes a variety of other covers, including standards such as "Unforgettable," "Cheek To Cheek" and "C'est Si Bon," a new version of the Tijuana Brass' "Flamingo" and a rendition of Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours." The set includes one original, "Sugarfoot."
"Jochem has this other-world type of concept for music and sounds," Alpert says of his collaborator. "He'd come up with some rhythm ideas and I'd go through my book of songs and maybe play seven or eight different songs on a particular groove until I hit one that would work, and then we'd explore it and it worked out." Alpert says he expects to release at least two more volumes of Music albums, using some songs he and van der Saag worked on but didn't include on this album. "I'm getting up there, man. I've got to get these volumes out while I can," Alpert says with a laugh.
Music Vol. 1 comes on the 55th anniversary year of Alpert's first artist release, The Lonely Bull, and despite getting up there it's also his sixth album of the decade -- more prolific than many artists a fraction of his age.
"Y'know, I'm passionate about the whole thing," Alpert says. "I love the process; I mean, this is what I do. I wake up in the morning excited about either recording or sculpting or painting. My excitement has accelerated over the years. I'm getting more out of the trumpet with less effort. I'm just having a good time doing it, so I'm a lucky guy in that respect."

Sixty-four choirs will pay tribute to The Beatles across Merseyside tomorrow morning (Thursday 8 June) as they sing at the same time.
Performances of the band’s track ‘When I’m Sixty-Four’ will take place at locations including Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, supermarkets, schools and on the streets as the Sgt Pepper at 50 celebrations continue.
With hundreds of people also expected to gather near the statue of the ‘Fab Four’ on Liverpool’s iconic waterfront when the region bursts into song at 10.30am prompt, those unable to attend are also being encouraged to get involved via social media.
The track will be broadcast live on BBC Radio Merseyside, which has organised the event alongside the team behind the citywide Sgt Pepper festivities, and the station is inviting members of the public to post videos of themselves singing along on its Facebook page.
On the same day, a series of poems from writers across the world including Roger McGough, Tracy K. Smith and Yasuhiro Yatsumoto to name a few will be loaded onto the www.sgtpepperat50.com website responding to the track.
The celebration is one of a series of world premiere commissions being held across Liverpool which are inspired by each of the 13 songs from ‘Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ as the album reaches its milestone 50th anniversary.
So far other events have included a pyrotechnic ‘Lucy in the Sky’ themed spectacular by Groupe F at Camp Hill in Woolton, and ‘Mr Kite’s Musicircus’ at Aintree Racecourse.
