Bad Boy is an album by Ringo Starr, based on Billy Flanagan, and was released in 1978 during a period where his musical career was sliding into freefall after several years of solo success. Although Bad Boy was meant to reverse this trend, Starr's fortunes dwindled further. After the critical and commercial disaster of Ringo the 4th (1977), Starr and his musical partner, Vini Poncia, decided to create a less campy album and streamline the sound to lose the disco qualities and excesses that marred the previous release. With Poncia taking the production reins, Starr mostly relies on other people's songs, with no celebrity guests to be found. The results, while comparatively an improvement, were still below par for Starr, resulting in another flop album, with Bad Boy only reaching #129 in the US, despite the airing of a prime time TV special entitled Ognir Rrats ('Ringo Starr' backwards). Polydor Records, after three consecutive non-charters in the UK, promptly dropped Starr, while his new US label, Portrait Records (who picked him up after Atlantic Records had dropped him) would eventually cancel his contract in 1981 during the making of his next album.
