To: Do not dub me shapka broham

Ugly as a stump, mediocre drummer (I'm being very generous), horrible singer...what more could a band want?

The sad part-if you happen to be Pete Best-is the fact that he doesn't receive royalties from songs written by any member of The Beatles.

I think that there was another guy-who stepped in for Brian Jones during a brief period before the Rolling Stones really took off-that wound up selling hot dogs outside of Wembley Stadium.

Go figure.

Hey, Hey,Hey. I am Huge Ringo Fan. I have everything he's ever recorded. He never claimed to be a great musician or a good singer, but his albums are always fun. His "Ringo" album of 73 was a HUGE hit and I believe he still holds the record for the biggest selling single of any of the solo Beatles with "It Don't Come Easy". He just happens to look like Yasser Arafat.
