Ringo gets a lot of flack, but I love him. He is a solid drummer. My take on the Beatles is this: Paul is one of the finest song writers I’ve ever heard. George is a criminally overlooked guitar player. Ringo is a superb drummer, and a truly fine human being. John was an overrated hack who was eclipsed by his wife (who I actually love, she’s such a nut case.)

Ringo admits to beating up his wife, Barbara Bach, so bad in the 1980s, he thought she was dead.

He was drunk at the time. The beating is why he checked into rehab.

It’s not easy for a drummer not to trip over Paul’s melodic bass lines.

Lol really
“ had tongontonsea but the butter wouldn’t so I made a butter pie “

He was a prolific writer, and I love the Beatles, but much of his stuff was pure bubble gum, but the rest pure genius

He knows how to make music and money lol “band in the run…”

Even though i detest the man’s positions I would put Roger waters above him and Gilmore combined with his guitar as well

But hey I am biased, and just my opinion
