Very poorly written. Still unclear what ailed him.

Hmmmmm ping.

Glad one of my fave drummers is doing better, now.

It can’t get much worse 🎶

Ringo Starr has always been refreshingly non-political. No arrogant lecturing from him. However, he once made this comment: “Everything government touches turns to crap.”

Good call there, Ringo.

Wishing him a speedy recovery.

“And that happens. That’s what saved your life — they were fighting the attacker,” he told the outlet.

Oh, O.K., I got it. (no, not really).

Saw him in ‘95 with Randy Bachman, Mark Farner, and Billy Preston. He is one heck of a showman.

Last time I saw him was 2019 at DPAC in Durham NC.
Love the guy and his all star rotating band members.

Ringo Starr ... The legendary singer ...

Me thinks the writer has never listened to the Beatles.

Wasn’t he the one who recorded the “No No Song”?

“It was a mad thing eating my body, and they found out when they took my blood that the white cells there was 12,000 of ’em,” Starr told Variet.\

Leukemia???

The legendary singer…

I still think of Ringo Starr as a drummer first and a singer second or maybe third.

Ringo had a number of health issues as a child. In 1953, he contracted tuberculosis and was in a sanatorium for two years. He started drumming to help improve his motor skills.

In one of the early episodes of Red Dwarf...a truly great BBC comedy series from long ago...one of the main characters was musing about how things would be in an alternate universe...a universe,he said,"where Ringo was actually a good drummer".
