The son of <strong>Ringo Starr<\/strong>, Zak was given drum lessons by \u201cuncle\u201d <strong>Keith Moon<\/strong>, made a great, hard-to-find album with powerpop hero <strong>Will Owsley<\/strong>, drummed with <strong>Oasis<\/strong>, and eventually took Moon&#8217;s seat as drummer for <strong>the Who<\/strong>. But none of those activities hinted at his latest project: a new band, Sssh, with longtime girlfriend <strong>Sssh Liguz<\/strong>. Here, Starkey leaves the drum kit behind; he plays guitar and Sshh sings. Cleverly on this album of 11 covers, the duo enlists (whenever possible) the rhythm sections that recorded the originals. Highlights are many on this idiosyncratic collection, including \u201cProblems\u201d (with <strong>Sex Pistols Paul Cook<\/strong> and <strong>Glen Matlock<\/strong>), \u201cAll the Young Dudes (featuring <strong>Mick Ralphs<\/strong>), and <strong>Primal Scream<\/strong>&#8216;s \u201cShoot Speed Kill Light\u201d (with <strong>Darren Moonie<\/strong> and <strong>Simone Butler<\/strong>).
