"If anybody started, I'm with you, brother." -Ringo Starr
Definitely we will defend till next world or any world Ringo Starr Is greatest .. never over shadow songs. Just right tempo and.highllight points.
That's what a great drummer does.
FIRST IN LAST OUT
Ringo saying "I want to play on the roof" is one of my favorite moments in the documentary. Paul is really reluctant, George doesn't want to do it, and John clearly wants to but doesn't bring himself to push Paul directly. But when the question is put to Ringo, he says flat out -- I want to play. That moment changed the dynamic. Without Ringo, that iconic concert probably never happens. Bless him.
Yes, Ringo was a man of very few words while the band was working out their new material. But, it just goes to show how much respect the group had for Ringo. When he said yes, he literally changed Paul and George's mind. They then said , yes, too...
George "Does this mean we have to play on the chimney?" 🤣 Paul, "George doesn't want to play on the roof, do you George?" George, "No, I don't want to play on the roof! Of course I don't want to play on the roof!" Ringo, "I want to play on the roof." George smiles at Ringo.
It was hilarious.
Remember this was in freezing weather - it was January!!!!!
@@clearfield2009 Ringo for president! :)
@@clearfield2009 That's when Paul says, they're 'very diverse people '.
Ringo rules!
Wow I had no idea
Ok hair dye aside, this guy looks phenomenal for 80. His skin, muscle tone, and even his voice appear young. Hard to believe he’s actually older than Keith Richards. Keith Richards is 77 and looks 97, ringo is 80 and looks 50
Keith Richards has been loking 97 for 120 years.
@@Ennuibody He's dry now.
@@Ennuibody He was an alcoholic in the 70s. One of his favorite drinking buddies was Keith Moon, so that should tell you how bad.
@@EnnuibodyI hope you find your way out like Ringo did. Moon was not so lucky.
I hope I look as good at 50 as Ringo does at 80.
Just finished watching "Get Back" and I would have to say the Ringo has the patience of a saint. As the three others where bitching about creative rights, Ringo is just sitting there waiting for the next song.
Exactly what I was going to say. He was so patient with all those different personalities, just ready to play when they needed him. Also hilarious to me that while everyone is laboring over the same song for hours at a time, days on end, Ringo hops over to the piano one day and comes up with "Octopus's Garden" with little to no effort whatsoever.
Loved that too. Especially the soundbite from Linda saying she feels the most relaxed around Ringo. By the end of the doc I decided I need to be more like Ringo, although I loved young Paul's commitment to getting the project done.
@@beccamatic John showed amazing patience with Paul in allowing Paul to try and work out so many details without end. Watching The Beatles' process was educating and inspiring. And, John's insight expressed to Paul when George left the band was powerful. Ringo was the glue that kept them together, it seems...
And he wanted to go to the roof, it looked like no one else wanted to do it besides maybe Paul
@@gable Ringo wanted to go. After Ringo said that he wanted to go, the others then decided to do it...
Towards the end of part 3 when Paul and Linda are holding hands, Ringo slides his hand over theirs - he’s so funny 🤣
"By the way, the EP will come out on cassette! Okay, byyyyeeeeee!" - Perfect exit.
I need to buy a turntable because I still have their original albums.
ruclips.net/video/k1chgHtUO_w/видео.html 0062
The man definately knows how to make an exit!
ENDS.
he just walked away lol
One of my favorite “Ringo moments” from Get Back was when someone asked him if liked going to India. “No, not really”. It was so human and transparent. And it said a lot about how he seemed easy going about the whole thing.
You know a lot of people are like that, if you look at people who didn't grow up watching Friends and typical Hollywood crap.
And I don't mean the Right wingers who are sadly nasty if not neo nazi.
Loved that moment! Also when they were trying to figure out where to do the concert and kept throwing out that amazing structure in Libya (Libya, right?) and George was like "You know, I'd rather do the show here and THEN go on vacation" in his typical sombre George drawl.
He's been on record saying the thing that ruined India for him was the food. He just could not get into any of the food there. And I've been in the same situation. If you go somewhere and the food is bad, it ruins the whole scene for you.
@@flyinpigmusic331 I LOVE Indian food but I have only had it in New York City. I wonder what it would be like in India. I do love India flavors... :)
@@robbrown4621 i live in india
"And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make."
One Ringo to rule them all,
One Ringo to find them,
One Ringo to bring them all and in
Peace and Love bind them.
He's a genius. Recently saw a video about the brilliance of his drumming. Wow.
Ha, ha, fantastic
Good call.
Love this😍😍
Your poem made my day ty kind internet stranger!
What a legend
Absolutely. What a gentleman.
And he was just as cool in person!!! Met him at s Ringorama CD signing,showing his entourage a few things to shake the day up for them.Vipers Skiffle Group's 1st 45 on Parlophone from '56
And an Introducing VJ lp of course,but Ringo ended up remarking as he signed my CD,I had a German picture sleeve of mod '60's French hottie Sylvie Vartan!!He loved that I knew about her.They played on her bill in Paris in'64,before their trip to America-he remarked"Oh,Sylvie Vartan,she was a great singer!!" I said,Yes,she was!!"
Love how Ringo slips straight into Paul's accent when he quotes him. LoL
Interesting, how Ringo has young spirit. Inspiring.
A young look as well, he’s 80 for Christ sakes!😄
@@ciggy_ - Two words: Hair dye
@@AaronStark1993 Yes, definitely, but that quit wit and playfulness is pretty special at any age and at eighty it's impressive.
Ringo Starr the youngest looking 80 year old
Ever! I just don't know how he does it. Thanks for posting.
@@AaronStark1993 You're gonna need more words than two, cuz hair dye has no effect on aging wrinkling skin. ---
I just saw Get Back and it was an eye opener. But for different reasons. For me it was watching some of my favorite Beatles songs being created over time. That process gave me chills. Long and Winding Road was our (73) 8th grade graduation song and for us then it was perfect. I sang Let it Be at my sister’s wedding. So it was thrilling. I’ve been in 50 plays and there’s a similar creative progress and panic as opening night gets closer but we never had to make up the words or music (normally). The level of creative genius was just amazing.
Besides being a very underrated drummer, Ringo's whole unusual look and his wacky sense of humor were absolutely essential to the whole "Beatlemania"
Seeing how much they love eachother has made me cry multiple times.
Yes although it also makes me realise that Ringo wasn't even the best drummer in the Beatles 😂😂😂
@@sarahbarrett1247 Paul's a good drummer, but c'mon, trolling Ringo isn't cool, he's a living legend, and a very cool dude. He's not the greatest technician, but he was rock solid as a drummer, and was a loving and lovely bandmate..
@@jayborcherding153 just for the record I absolutely love Ringo and his drumming. I had just rewatched an old Beatles recording I had made in the '90's about when they were in America. I was referring to the flippant answer they answered when asked if Ringo was the best drummer in the world.
@@sarahbarrett1247 It is clear that you are not a musician, and unable to play drums, one of the most difficult instruments to play. These days 99% of the drummers are technical and only 1% musical. Ringo is in the 1%.
What a sweety this man is. Still can see how much he loved his band mates and how much he still does.
Folks the Beatles were an awesome group of friends, singers, musicians, and songwriters.
Their music shall always live on and be loved and admired.
ruclips.net/video/k1chgHtUO_w/видео.html 0062
They weren't friends actually. The vast majority of them for example sympathised with John Lennons first wife. Lennon himself threatened violence towards McCartney and other band members.
It was a difficult reactionship
@@hannahdyson7129 they were friends..no arguments on that
@@hannahdyson7129 , you don't know what you're talking about.
@@hannahdyson7129 - were you an Insider or are you just guessing? Or do you read a lot of magazines?
Little known fact, in the Beatles era Ringo received more fan mail than the other three bandmembers. This was due to the fact that Ringo was frequently ill, so much so Beatles fans were concerned he would not be able to continue with the band. If Ringo were to leave, fans were convinced the band would break up. The fan mail was to urge him to get well soon.
He was still replying to fan mail up until about ten years ago
He did actually leave the band temporarily during the White Album era. This is why Paul drums on Back in the USSR and Dear Prudence. When Ringo returned, he found flowers on his set, from George, I believe
@@hughjarrse "He was still replying to fan mail up until about ten years ago"
Yeah, those sixties resulted in a hell of a mail backlog
You have the Beatles history a bit mixed up. Ringo did indeed have extremely serious health problems...as a child. By the time he was a Beatle the only health problem he had was a bout of tonsillitis, during which the Beatles used a session drummer to fill in for a week or so on a world tour. Other than that, nobody was worried about Ringo having to leave the band due to his health.
@@rjlchristie "Dear Marge..."
Listen to the Beatles with your ear attuned to Ringo's drumming and you will hear the skill and creativity and that he brought to the table and I can't imagine any other drummer that could compare.
Well, Danny Carey is probably better. They play for different genres though ;)
I always felt he was as melodic on the kit as Paul was on bass and vocals, George on guitar and John in his raw vocals and rhythm guitar
John Bonham
Shelly Manne, Buddy Rich, and Stewart Copeland for a start
@@dougpredmore3780 Of course those guys are more technical, but nobody could have been more perfect for the Beatles than Ringo. That can't be questioned. He didn't have to be the Star of the show. Just the right element though. Beyond perfect for them.
Every FAN wants to be the drummer, even when the “kit” is a steering wheel or a tabletop.
Or even the air.
And every male movie star really wanted to be a great baseball player. I learned that from the questionnaire on 'Inside The Actors Studio'. Question was, If you weren't an actor, what job would you rather have? Every man I ever remember seeing on the show said 'baseball player'. "Since I was a kid, I wanted to be a baseball player."
Kathleen R I think you're probably right. I just want to add that baseball was extremely popular during their youths. Id be willing to bet it's different with the younger generation.
rat a’ tat tat... 🥁
@@haf816r Very true. Times they are a changing, --- I was reminded of that baseball player thing when Colbert said that multiple guest had said, like Billy Crystal, that the autographs they had asked for were baseball players. Crystal is in that 'right' age bracket. ---- I'm in that right age bracket too, but I'm a GIRL, but more importantly, my dad *didn't* watch baseball. MY dad liked stock car racing. And we lived near Daytona. By the time I was 13 I wanted to be a professional stock car driver, and knew the difference between a 4-stroke combustion engine and a 2-stroke combustion engine. --- Baseball is boring.
Man, I hope I look like Ringo when I am 60...let alone 80, living world-wide legend
Anyone can. All it takes is a little nip and tuck, here and there, make-up and Grecian Formula. And from the sounds of it, dentures.
@@babababuck or good genes, definitely not dentures if you look good at his teeth.
@@Bluesbabesrv He's at the least got a plate. You can hear it.
@Donna Willams Good doctors and you can hear something moving, at times, when he talks. And yes, he is a treasure. My point is that no 80 year old looks like that naturally. Peace and love!
@@babababuck - even with all that, the boy is cool. Don't sound like 80 years old. Yee Gods.
"Every band member wants to be the drummer." Truer words were never said!
The same energy he has always had. Love him so much.
He's 80 years old and looks 40!
And just think how many cigarettes and cocktails have been through that body. Gives the rest of us hope.
DONT OPEN THAT LINK (just a stupid ad)
It’s called black dye, fyi
Wealth
No effen kidding!! He's 80?!
The man has obviously relaxed into a Zen state of peacefulness and all-lovingness. Lack of stress, (physical AND mental) is a huge factor in maintaining one's youthful health.
Ringo is the youngest 80-year-old I've ever seen
It can't be just botox.
Peter Jackson's magic CGI?
He looks younger than his sons!
He looks amazing
Well said.
Freak of nature
Ringo is 80 YEARS OLD???? whattt! ??
how does he look so good at this age?
He's a Scouser,that's how.
The Beatles were a once in an Eternity time happening and I was lucky enough to exist just at the right age when it happened.
Just finished it. Ringo it's brilliant. He came up with just about everything on his parts. He should get writing credits. None of those songs would be the same without him. He's just always ON. What a great drummer.
No he shouldn't, he was chilling while some of the others wrote, arranged and produced.
@@vb8428 exactly, and then he just picked it up. Without Ringo it's not the same
Agree. He wrote the drum parts pretty much by himself. Why wouldn't that be considered writing?
@@halhenderson2972 Huh? Next thing you'll be saying film composers get a writing credit 🤡
This was a very entertaining segment. Ringo was so open and into the interview and talking. I’ve seen him very much more guarded in interviews so this was so enjoyable. 👏🏻👏🏻❤️
So happy you never lost that accent Ringo! 😊
He doesn't have much of an accent!
If you watch a video taken in the 70’s or 80’s he talks like anyone from Liverpool
It faded a bit.
The way he pronounces the word “and” is very Americanized, and that goes back at least as far as the ANTHOLOGY interviews in the first half of the 90s. But hey, he had already lived in the States for a long time by then, so it’s not surprising. 😎
@@emilydavison2053 Hi Emily, I'm from Liverpool, he's still got his accent, honestly! Peace and Love.😀
This man laid the foundation for the greatest rock band that ever was. My life would be very different if he hadn’t existed. Much much love for Ringo.
Oh, the joy of hanging out with Ringo!
Peace & Love
Just finished Get Back. There’s a moment where Paul is sorting out long and winding road while the road manager is talking his and Ringo’s ears off. Ringo finally just walks to the piano and leans on it to be with Paul. Seeing Ringo be so affectionate and supportive brought me to tears. Everybody else in the room was talking shop but Ringo went to Paul to listen.
Do you remember what part that was in?
@@SarahLandry577 Part 1. Around 1hr 43 minute mark.
Paul presented "Long and Winding Road" for the first time, He doesn't have all the lyrics yet. Mal Evans (Beatles Road Manager) come up to him and wrote the lyrics for Paul as well as bouncing some idea, then Ringo join both of them.
@@dalfifran7572 awesome, thank you!
@@dalfifran7572 Mal Evans wrote down most of the lyrics for the guys so they could learn them.
At one point, when they were still trying to flesh out ideas for the live performance, Ringo was standing by the piano and said, (paraphrasing) that he could watch Paul play for an hour.
One thing I noticed was that, while Paul was such a stickler for arranging his songs, he didn't tell Ringo what he wanted. He just knew Ringo would do the right thing for the song.
This man is 80 years old. But he's still look like in his 50's.
Ringo's wall decor is awesome! So Ringo!
Ringo is the best advertisement for living alchohol free.
Amen!
Except he was drinking when he played in the band lmfao
@@thdgcfx Good thing he quit in the 1980s. If he hadn't, given his rate of intake, he more than likely wouldn't be around, not to mention, looking incredibly chipper. Right on, Ringo.
I could definitely watch 56 hours of the greatest, most talented, most influential band that has ever existed.
"Get Back" is brilliant! And it will blow away any of the old myths and show what a great bunch of guys they are/were and how they loved each other.
How is he 80!? Even my grandfather didn't look that good at 80. And he looked GOOD.
Money
Was your grandfather a multi-millionaire for 60 years of his life?
@@NetCerpher no. Just had really really good genes
"In fact, EVERY band member wants to be the drummer..." That is completely true, because each of us think drumming is easy, until we experience how hard it really is. Ringo was and still is not only a 1-derful one but by the way he patterned a diversity of rythms tailored for each Beatle song I consider him a co-composer of all those great gems. My all time favorite Beatle !!!
I’ve just watched the Peter Jackson doc. Oh my god its brilliant. I now LOVE Ringo. He was so cool and chilled out.
What's not to love about Ringo. What a beauty of a human being he is.
"Every guitarist wants to be a drummer."
😄
@Emanuel W. Don't click, anyone. It's spam.
I was a guitarist for 20 years before I started drumming. I can confirm that when you’re drumming and it’s all working there’s no feeling like it!
He's right. I did.
Ringo is as much an artistic innovator as his famous bandmates. Listen to the drumming on In My Life, Come Together, Rain, A Day In the Life, among many others. Such a joy to hear. Give me artistic interpretation over plain chops any day.
Ringo is a gem. And so youthful. Getting old doesn’t mean you have to get stodgy. He’s sharp as a tack.
Damn straight.
Thanks Ringo, thanks for all the memories.
What a gift Peter Jackson left on the memory and legacy of the Beatles.
I bet John and George are smiling from above.
The cassette tapes are for real making a comeback my walkman is so happy
I have speakers and lots of cassettes. I will be looking for an old player after I get out of this pandemic locked in state.
I also just watched Get Back. It was amazing to see these icons so young with the film looking like it was filmed just yesterday. They were at their height and yet the food on offer was a lot of tea and toast! Recording artists today would probably have a chef preparing special meals. All I could think was that the studio must have stunk like an ashtray because they were all chain smoking. What a wonderful feeling of love and friendship they had, even with the crew. I loved that when George left they all went together to see him at his home, twice, to work things out. You could see that there was genuine feeling of family between them. I loved also how great they all were with Paul's daughter Heather, you could see that she was completely comfortable with all of them, shows how much time she must have spent with them outside of work. I was taken with how clinging Yoko was with John, but also caring and fun. It was interesting that the others didn't seem to interact with her much but also didn't seem to mind her there. I did wonder if the studio crew got frustrated with all the clowning around as it seemed to slow things up but what a wonderful illustration of how creative they all were and how they all worked together to develop a song no matter which one wrote it. Fabulous insight
Lovely comment! Couldn't agree more.
At one point, George Martin - I think - reminded them how much it costed for the tape they were wasting. Didn't seem to faze them though.
I love that Ringo dyes his hair and beard. Sorry all you age-gracefully saps, color retains youth, and his vibe is rockin.
Yes, Sharma. I agree so much with you. And Ringo can do it. I mean, it looks so fine on him. Ringo Forever! The Beatles Forever.
It didn't look so good on Paul, so it's a case by case basis.
Only if the rest of your face and body matches. I’ve seen so many old men at the pool who look wrinkled and aged but have cheap coal black hair. Same for women. It works for Ringo because he looks tremendous anyway.
Yeah....tell that to Jimmy Page.
Looks great on him. But gray hair is better on Paul.
Looking fantastic Ringo!!! On the rooftop was great & you could feel the love + the good time you all were having. George was smiling away, Paul was rocking & rolling & happy, John was singing his heart out, Billy Preston was happy & getting down on piano & you Ringo was back there banging the hell out of those drums!!! Loved it, enjoyed it & l STILL watch that video now . Matter of fact watched it yesterday. Keep up the great work, even tho l miss George & John . ☮️ & Love Always.

Ringo was always my favourite. Just a classy guy!
Amazing how at the end, Ringo is the way coolest of the four.
Always has been.
Well, apart from George 😁
@@fredbloggs2206 True. Maybe those two should've started a different bug?
Ringo and Stephen is the collision of my idols i have been waiting for ever since i discovered the both of them
Okay. I already love Ringo, but when he plugs his latest album is on cassette and then just dips… This man is special.
Watched all 3 episodes twice and LOVE THEM! Will watch again. Love Ringo!!!!
Oh my God, he's 10 years older than me and people are always saying I look young for my age he hasn't hardly aged at all.
His hair is really grey.
Ringo is now my favorite Beatle. He was a rock and a saint to put up with all those egos. He just wanted to play and to be in the band, have fun, and just get down to it. All due respect to George, who I also love.
I loved this interview with Sir Ringo Starr! He looks fabulous!
Can’t wait!! Ringo looks so great! ☮️✌️❤️
I'm 64 years old. I was only almost 7 when I first saw the Beatles on Ed Sullivan and my dad bought my big sister Beatles records for her birthday which we listened to over and over. So I grew up with the Beatles, was heartbroken like everybody else when they ended, followed their solo careers, saw Paul and Wings in the Kingdome in Seattle in 1976, loved the anthology series... In other words a huge fan. The movie Let it Be was really cool in its way, but a bit dark, both visually and emotionally. Peter Jackson's Get Back is amazing! If you haven't seen it, do. Okay, so my real point is how come I was a little boy watching Ringo, a grown man all those years ago and somehow he looks about 10 years younger now than I do? Totally unfair! Haha. God bless Ringo! Peace and love! Hope the All Star band comes close enough for me to see sometime while he's still touring. The way he's going, he'll be at it when he's 100!
I often complain to myself how old & grandfatherly most rock stars of Ringo's time now look but I don't have that complaint about Ringo. He makes me feel less fearful about getting old.
The same thought just struck me. Watch the booze, have a positive outlook and have fun.
First time I have ever commented on a You Tube. I am a soon to be 64 year old and loved the Beatles since I was 7 years old. Ringo looks amazing. I saw him live in 1987 and Paul about 4 times. Ringo's voice is so strong. Does anyone why he wear sunglasses all the time. I am a huge fan.
You were right. The documentary is amazing and I love the Beatles even more.
I really like Ringo Star. Great artist and a great guy. His appearance on that TV show where he was popping bubble wrap was priceless! Great sense of humor and positive outlook.
I was very young in the 60s and never really a Beetles fan, but I must say I REALLY enjoyed this interview with Ringo - seems like such a down to earth kind of guy....
Agreed. And Ringo was only 570 at the time
I can’t wait to see this
MASTERPIECE♥️🌟💙🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I’ve stood on that roof in savile row where they did that final performance it was weird I was never a big beetles fan but you can feel the history in that place
I watched all three episodes and I was struck by how good looking Ringo was - he looked especially healthy and ruddy, great skin, hair and everything so I guess he's always had good genes to look as good as he does now
Was just thinking about being born in 1960 and having two older sisters - The Beatles were the first music I even remember hearing. And hearing it ALL THE TIME...for over a decade.
At one point, they even had a Saturday morning cartoon that would have at least two songs per episode (Ringo seems like the main character on that). What an enormous deal the Ed Sullivan appearance was. A.M. radio...
It's hard for people today to imagine how ubiquitous they were.
There has really never been anything like it since.
The Beatles were music.
ruclips.net/video/k1chgHtUO_w/видео.html 0062
The Beatles were the '60's!!Period!!They say if you remember the '60s,you really weren't there,well,The Beatles certainly helped with us being there,that's for sure!!And with remembering being there!!Whoever said that quote was dead wrong!!Probably that idiot,Timothy Leary,Tune in,tune out,drop out...Ying-yang,he was...
Tune in,turn on,drop out,I meant,as Leary's quote.
Saw Ringo and his All Starr Band in Nashville about three years ago and his energy on stage was amazing. Wonderful, fun show.
Ringo looks amazing. He’s such a sweetheart.
I’m so thrilled to hear him talk of the other lads as just brothers who sometimes have a row here and there. Pure brotherhood, these legends. ❤️
There's gotta be a "Lord of the Ringo's" joke in here somewhere...
one ringo to find them...
one ringo to bring them all
Since Peter Jackson is involved, it'll turn out they DIDN'T break up...
The Beatles did plan on making a LotR movie in their last few years.
@@frankirons9337 Is this true? Cause I love it
Ah Ringo, he has always been my favorite Beatle, the funny one, the most friendly! Love him!
The quality of the footage is absolutely Incredible! It’s like you can reach out and touch their skin. This fan is very Grateful to Peter Jackson!
Ringo is one of the greats. We should love and cherish him.
Watched a good chunk of Jackson's documentary last night and although large stretches of it were tedious and definitely for hardcore Beatles fans only - at times it was fascinating to watching the songwriting process. The rooftop concert was amazing - and I laughed at the cops efforts to shut it down. It was bittersweet seeing them in their youth jamming out - and then thinking half of them aren't with us any longer. Some of the comments from pedestrians on the street were amusing - one lady commenting, "It's all just noise" - so funny considering what a historical and epic event the rooftop appearance was at the time.
Well said. Part 1 definitely required the most patience and was watched in the most "chunks". There were some amusing moments, but some parts were a bit tedious. But I loved seeing the dynamic between them and their different personalities. And it hit me again and again that John and George are no longer alive, and how that made it even more special to see these guys making music together, and still so young!
@@beccamatic What really struck me was the relatively short span of time between the song concept - like Get Back - and the completely finished version just days later. In one part we see Paul just startin' to put the simple melody together on his bass while humming much of it before the lyrics were added. And then not too much later they were performing the fully fleshed-out version on the roof with all the ingredients added. A rare peak behind the curtain of history.
He and his wife gave up drinking years and years ago. That’s why he looks so well.
I've got a feeling that this man has got a really amazing lovely beautiful pure heart.
We just finished watching all 3 parts. I'm 70, so I was in it so to speak, and Stephen's take-away is mine. An absolute about face on how I felt about them, after they broke up. I assumed it was all John's fault, etc. and not to give anything away, but they really were having fun. Loving each other. Getting their work done. Stay to the 3rd episode, as the first two are good build up to it... but the sugar is in the 3rd.
56 hours of unused material? Finally a reason Beyond Death to sit at home and watch the TV
He looks awesome!! Love the Beatles!!
Now THAT’S a True Legend! Incredible energy and spirit at 80! Hope he spreads the Peace & Love for many many more and beyond!
There's an old Paul McCartney quote that says something like "I was lead guitar, then I was demoted to rhythm guitar and finally to the bass. There was always this frightful fear that I'd end up as the drummer." I can't recall which interview now but I think it was sometime in the 90s, but it always makes me giggle to think about it :)
There are many types of intelligence, and Ringo's is the gift of 'instinct'--he has musical intuition, which is really his brilliance.
These were great interviews--thanks Stephen!!
Great go at things ringo does. I grew up listening to these blokes
I’m a nrmalnsm. P
I’m not alowed
Dang, SO youthful looking AND sounding... Good energy ☀️🌠☯️🦋🌴
Its amazing that Ringo Starr has been in show business for almost 60 years. He is now in his 80's but looks better that some people in their 40's.
I love that Ringo’s newest album is on reel to reel.
It's amazing Ringo looks like he's in his forties. Stephen, however, possesses that eternal youth quality.
My favorite Beatle
Watching Get Back was such a beautiful enlightning experience. Being able to witness all this creative process from inside is a blessing so thank you Peter Jackson for making it possible. And thank you Beatles for all your talent!
I love Ringo's drumming especially on, "I've Got a Feeling"..Ringo reminds me of a jazz drummer)
"...You can also get 'Zoom In' on cassette."
"YOU'RE KIDDING?!?"
"OK, BYYYYYYYE!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even if Ringo let his hair go grey, he'd still look young. He has a youthful face.
The funny thing is, he was already gray in his late teens, when The Beatles met him in Hamburg. He's been dying it ever since. The youthful thing, of course, comes from within Ringo himself.
He's always had a streak/shock of grey hair - since he was a kid actually. His MOST grey period was in the early to mid 80s (Paul went grey during this period as well).
@@flyingkillerrobots877 For many years, Ringo had a gray ponytail. What I wanted him to do then was just dye the original gray streak brown!
@@jackeppington6488 Heh. I'd forgotten about the ponytail.
They call it Botox,No one can look younger than when they were young naturally.50 odd years sees to that unless your Rich.by the way he’s drumming was the simplest drumming ever.
"okay BYE!!"
Now there's a hard exit!
Ringo is priceless!
The Beatles have never let us down. And I certainly hope that we haven’t let them down either. Much love, much respect, lads, thank you.
For me, Abbey Road is the most important album ever made.
George brought in his early experiments with the Moog synthesizer. For me this album always hurts because I can't stop thinking of what they could have achieved continuing with 70s technology. The road ended for them when it started to get really interesting and nothing they did afterwards was half as good, in my humble opinion.
Definitely the best engineered album they ever made....for me, it's a toss-up between this and the White Album
Tough for me to argue any single one of their albums from Revolver on. And I liked the early ones as well. That said, the production of Abbey Road was a step upward and I am still blown away by the musicianship on side two.
Best album, "Beatles for Sale"
@@matiasmoulin2126 What about RAM, All things must pass, plastic ono band, Band on the run ?
Ringo has always been such a positive person and it shows you that keeps him young!!
I've seen Ringo play live several times. He really is a good drummer!
