Ringo's "less is more" approach is basically why he was the perfect human drum machine for this band and I believe a major contributing factor to their unprecedented success. Plus he is Ringo. It is not possible to imagine The Beatles without him. His personality, his presence, his beats, his songs... to me a very integral part of the overall "magic".
There's a belief by some in the comments that Paul came up with the drum pattern because of what John said in a 1980 interview but George disputes this. According to Wikipedia he said it was Ringo's idea based on George's riff which in turn was based on the way John strummed the chord when introducing the song to the others. I think John didn't want to admit Paul wrote at least a third of the song so that's why he said his only contribution was the way Ringo played the drums.
Ringo never gets the credit he deserves. He is a genius - and one of the most creative, groovinest drummers we've ever had. Beatles records were done before recordings had a click track to record in time . Ringo didn't need click tracks and loops to play to. His timing was impeccable on these recordings. Unless a track called for apeeding up or slowing down Ringo was right there on the money. A human metronome. A metronome with soul.

AMAZING song! It's almost impossible to describe how good/important the Beatles were/are. SO GLAD I got to be alive during this musical period. I was fortunate to hear every one of these songs the day they came out....what a thrill that was....waiting for the 'next' song/release to see what that would be like. Wow. What a musical explosion.
Me too. And I loved then really heavily back then. I don't think it is a matter of that I love them more now but rather have a greater appreciation of the talent.
So many things happening in this song on all different levels: the "falling-down-the-stairs" drum pattern, the 12-string arpeggio, the lead guitar pedal point on A, and of course Lennon's incredible vocal. Thanks to you we can really hear all of it ! I do wish they would have ended it like this rather than the fade-out.
I'm willing to speculate (57 yrs later) that the off-beat drum part demands itself, and Paul said "I like it, do that!'. Paul is indeed a great multi-instrumental talent, writer, and singer. Let's not go overboard with the praise as a drummer. He learnt a LOT from Ringo, believe it.
Ringo changes the rhythm he plays on the verses slightly halfway through the song. On live versions he plays the first rhythm only. It makes the song interesting as you would only notice if paying attention; as the first rhythm sits behind the groove. Whereas the second rhythm is on the beat keeping it solid. I had not noticed for years. I wonder if 1. This was a mistake. 2. This was intentional. 3. They chose a take where it was not noticed. 4. It was noticed however fit perfectly anyway and as it was a great take they kept it. In any case it makes it that little bit tricky and I love Ringo’s drumming on everything. There is a magic to the Beatles and what each member contributed. They are a puzzle of four pieces that could not be replaced.
Glad you pointed that out, I always felt the same way. Like the bridge pickup is rolled off a little....just an amazing tone. Later that evening he got the same tone for "Another Girl."

The rumor is TRUE: they’re saying ‘she’s gotta a Ticket to Rye’! Capitol Records in the US mistook Rye (a town in the UK) and they sang Ticket to Ride.
Very interesting that the drums actually change throughout the song. First verse is different than subsequent verses. Sounds like more snare in the subsequent
On this album the volume was turned up on the drums, which I like compared to previous albums that left the drums very low in the mix. In addition, this song already shows what would come later in their music and in pop and rock music. En este álbum se le subió el volumen a la batería, lo que me gusta comparado con discos anteriores que dejaban la batería muy baja en la mezcla. Además esta canción ya muestra lo que vendría después en la música de ellos y de la música pop y rock.
As always, Ringo's drumming makes the song swing and rock. He changes the basic skip beat to a straight 4/4 in the bridges and slightly alters it in the second half of the song, which I never noticed before. What a genius! Paul's bass sounds under-recorded, which surprises me. They got much better bass sounds on other recording on this album. It really sounds muffled, unless his is not the actual track but a leaked track, which is what it sounds like. The guitars are played a little simpler than I thought, particularly the dual strummed Gmaj7 chord in the chorus that we could never figure out back in the day. Such is the illusion of these recordings. Nothing compares to Lennon's vocals, and along with Phil Everly, David Crosby and Graham Nash, McCartney is one of the best top voice harmony rock singers of all time.
Very cool to hear the isolated tracks. Lots of little enhancements on the guitar and a different chord other than a straight G on the "........ride" that's hard to pick out in the full mix.
@@georgetebbens3524 After listening to a few interviews they often didn't know the names of he chords they actually used. They kinda made a lot of them them up to make them sound different but still pleasing with the melody.
You know on the BBC version of this when they're singing the "I don't know why she's riding so high" part Ringo keeps with that drum pattern he doesn't switch to the high hat and it sounds so damn funky!!!

no es importante si ringo creo o no el patron rítmico, lo importante es que era capas de ejecutarlo, es facil tocar un instrumento musical como uno mismo desea, lo dificil es tocar un instrumento como otro desea.
You can hear Paul very faintly fiddling around on his guitar if you listen close enough. In the verse “the girls that driving me mad is going away” and right after that. It’s easier to here in the full track
Notice how Ringo plays triplets on the first verse and chorus only and plays quarter notes rest of the way. He picks up on Johns phrasing of Tik it 2 ride phrasing
Also at the very end that is the tambourine doing the boom chick boom chick boom chick boom chick boom chick boom chick the drum Set is still grooving.
There seems to be some discussion lately on what exactly John was playing during the verses, was it just a plain A major chord (as seen during TV appearances), or alternating between the A major and D major chords, or playing A major with Asus2 chord? I've had a good listen to the audio of this video. By looping the audio for one measure of the A chord on the program Transcribe, between time points 9:50.00 to 9:51.84, and applying EQ, boosting the 700-800 Hz frequencies to +7 to 8dB, cutting the frequencies below 640k and cutting the frequencies above 1250Hz as much as possible, you can get a relatively good isolation of the rhythm guitar part by John without the 12 string part getting in the way. You can slow down the audio as well. By way of repeated listening of the loop, I swear I get the strong impression that either John was playing the A major chord alternating to the Asus2 chord on the 4th, 3rd and 2nd strings or he could have been barring the A major chord on the second fret and alternating to the B minor chord on the 4th, 3rd and 2nd strings.
On same page with you more or less. I've never in depth deconstructed nor the ability to isolate tho one day I should, but I've just gone superficially by my ear and video. I've never thought John does this A -> Bm thing. I've recorded it pumping through A -> D, and even that sounds excessive. Maybe they're right but my (now 64ish y/o) ear doesn't hear it. Through my lifetime of playing Beatles I've always stressed that they do hidden things (chords/inversions/fretboard positions) that make their special tone but here I just don't hear John's supposed hidden guitar part. I think he just blends. OTOH, I've also read that George overdubbed the droning A string. If so, where is John then? On "she;s got a ticket to ride...." the riff stops and and I can hear both the 12 string softly and 6 string strongly.
Like this George did A 3rd string and E on 1st, C# 2nd string, A again 3rd string. then 2nd string B-C# John did A on the 5th string, C# 2nd string, A 5th string, 2nd string D then B
West coast style and fashion of the rime. They were into it. Lots of dudes running around with bowl cuts and stripped shirts. Ringo, Sonny....ton of 'em...lol
GEORGE HARRISON Lead Guitar: Rickenbacker 360 Rhythm Guitar (Gibson ES-335). JOHN LENNON: Rhythm Guitar (Fender Stratocaster) and (Rickenbacker 325c64). principal voice PAUL MCCARTNEY: Bass (Höfner 500/1 63') and Lead guitar (Epiphone Casino). Second Voice RINGO STARR Drums (Ludwig Super Classic), tambourine, clapping.
George never owned a 335 during the Beatles years. He had 345 which he seemed to have ditched very quickly as it’s only seen a couple of times and it was definitely not used in this recording.
Wow that's a lot of rhythm guitars LOL.... there is only John' Strat, a Strat overdub by George, and George's 12 string. Paul overdubs the fills on the Casino. No Rickenbackers on the track.
With the Beatles, nothing was "boring". You listen to every detail, even the 40 second note at the end of A Day in the Life. If any other band originally did this song, it would have been boring.
There’s a tone pedal guitar that appears every time John sings r-i-ide that’s not in the isolated guitar section. Is it possible there are FOUR guitars on this track??
It never fails, on these decons I love the Ringo tracks best. Of course, as part of the rhythm section in a tune, the drummer may be somewhat buried; we don't hear the bass so much either. However, Paul's bass parts are generally quite solid but nowhere as brilliant, inventive, and so very dialed in to the specific song as was Ringo. He never played a wrong note but his parts rarely leapt into prominence.
@@thejasonknightfiascoband5099 I was joking around haha, sorry for the confusion. Probably from how the tracks were isolated, like what the person above me said.
My kids love the Beatles. Three generations later, they still have a huge impact. I mean, who are millennials and “Z-lennials” supposed to be inspired by, Maroon 5?😂
These appear to be AI separated tracks. The actual recording is on 4 tracks in different groupings than those shown here. Hard to tell what might be whacky on something like this due to unnatural filtering.

The Gmaj7th chord at Ri-hi-hide is so unexpected and cool. BTW, the song is actually called Ticket To Rye but Capitol thought that Americans would not understand it. They actually are singing the word Rye. ( Correction) It's about Ryde on the Isle of Wight.
@@TheAerovons I just double-checked in Paul's bio, Many Years From Now, and there on page 193, it says the song was partially about Ryde in the Isle of Wight where John & Paul performed as The Nerk Twins at Paul's cousin Bett's pub. Thanks, oceantracks.
@@inyourfaceguitar5454 Paul told author Barry Miles they were "aware" of the fact it could be taken as a double meaning, but that the song was about a girl "riding" out of someone's life. Then John said it was about prostitutes in Hamburg being given a clean bill of health LOL....
Ringo is the cement in this song, that drum track is the ticket
The “ticket to ride”??
John’s vocals are otherworldly, and that final “awww she’s got a ticket to ride” at about 14:45 is something else
I searched this for this video after hearing that part on the record. Impeccable voice crack. It’s like the twist and shout recording.

There’s a tone pedal guitar that appears every time John sings r-i-ide that’s not in the isolated guitar section. Is it possible there are FOUR guitars on this track??
It never fails, on these decons I love the Ringo tracks best.
Of course, as part of the rhythm section in a tune, the drummer may be somewhat buried; we don't hear the bass so much either. However, Paul's bass parts are generally quite solid but nowhere as brilliant, inventive, and so very dialed in to the specific song as was Ringo. He never played a wrong note but his parts rarely leapt into prominence.
What??
Ringo looking like Sonny Bono.
3:04 so what are they doing to make the "hand claps" sound distorted?
They plug their hands into a fuzz box
@@Vincentlpp08 I'm curious... do u have any idea what you're talking about? Not calling you a liar I just want to know if you're assuming.
@@thejasonknightfiascoband5099 I’m pretty sure it’s because these are isolations for the Beatles Rock Band game which is why it sounds distorted.
@@thejasonknightfiascoband5099 I was joking around haha, sorry for the confusion. Probably from how the tracks were isolated, like what the person above me said.
My kids love the Beatles. Three generations later, they still have a huge impact. I mean, who are millennials and “Z-lennials” supposed to be inspired by, Maroon 5?😂
George used the Rick 12 string, not the Tennesseean
Did they really sing it in Ab?
No song without Ringo and George
Ringo changed drum style after 1st bridge.
"She's got a pocket to hide".
11:18 You CAn't Do That anyone...? ;-)
👍
Paul's idea on how the drums should be makes the song special
This is got to be the first heavy metal record...😳there is a guitar missing ...think it might be mixed low with the vocals..
So the mystery chord appears to be GM7/D.
The Proto-Origins of Proto-Punk?
I say it was "Glad All over" or "Bits and Pieces".
It’s a Motown groove - or very Charlie Watts
What’s going on in that tambo track?
These appear to be AI separated tracks. The actual recording is on 4 tracks in different groupings than those shown here.
Hard to tell what might be whacky on something like this due to unnatural filtering.
Ich kann den Bass nicht hören. - Ich cannot hear the Bass with my mobile
is this about that boardgame
anyone got anything to say about 10:02?
Probably Paul noodling while waiting for his guitar solo moment
@@jesper7993 finally someone noticed
@@ronanfitzgerald7524 Yeah, I noticed it way back in 2015 after listening to the song countless times. It's also immortalised here: ruclips.net/video/XDln2TBIOBk/видео.html and prominently here ruclips.net/video/zNmuWGP-c20/видео.html
The Gmaj7th chord at Ri-hi-hide is so unexpected and cool. BTW, the song is actually called Ticket To Rye but Capitol thought that Americans would not understand it. They actually are singing the word Rye. ( Correction) It's about Ryde on the Isle of Wight.
Not true, internet rumor.l
@@TheAerovons I just double-checked in Paul's bio, Many Years From Now, and there on page 193, it says the song was partially about Ryde in the Isle of Wight where John & Paul performed as The Nerk Twins at Paul's cousin Bett's pub.
Thanks, oceantracks.
@@inyourfaceguitar5454 Paul told author Barry Miles they were "aware" of the fact it could be taken as a double meaning, but that the song was about a girl "riding" out of someone's life. Then John said it was about prostitutes in Hamburg being given a clean bill of health LOL....
Nobody plays like Ringo
Rhythm the same as for Tomorrow Never Knows.
It’s not!
Similar in places, ues.
Sounds so easy when broken down. HA.
Why this bass!?
It was extacted via software from the basic track. That's the reason why it sounds crappy.
Just a educated guess, but maybe God used them to give us their sounds, as a gift
Can't hear the bass. Maybe it's me.
Paul could’ve been the entire Beatles almost
That might have been rather awful actually.
Wtf?!
Yeah but what fun would that be, when he sang I am the Walrus, where would the mystery be?
McCartney could do it all, but Lennon’s vocal and lyrics drive this song.
