Imagine being in a band for 10 years and then having to talk it about it for the next 55 years of your life.
probably more than 50 years worth of stories fit into that 10.
A band or the band?
That's how you know you're the greatest of all time
I would take that deal! Ringo embraces it and we are all better for it!
Reporter to George: "Why don't you like talking about the Beatles?" George: "But talking about the Beatles is all I ever do!"
Being 84, Ringo looks, speaks and MOVES amazing.
He's 83. That explains it.
Amazingly 😁
Dan Rathers not doing so bad himself!
I find it hard to believe that just because it says this was put out an hour ago, this is Ringo in 2024. He really looks too good. Every 83 yr old woman wants to know his secret.
They drink the blood of sacrificed children, plus he colours his hair.
And Dan Rather is now 92 years old, Ringo is 83. Kudos to both of them.
Some years ago as Ringo was being interviewed about joining the Beatles he said he was really happy about it because he was
an only child and now he had 3 brothers. He knows what's important in life.
Of course they didn't. They're British. 😂 I think it was good old-fashioned driving each other to be their best, like any great band...
@@jaycoleman8062 What exactly are you talking about? 😅
Just that they sometimes hold a grudge for various reasons. Kinks, Oasis to name a couple. No disrespect though because sometimes I think that internal tension brings out the best in everyone which makes the best music. But that is just my opinion
Yes, sounds so lovely and appreciative to me.
@@klaus3579 30 years ago I met George Harrison in an airport and shook his hand.
Ringo is about the music, not about his ego, he deserves all the success he has had in his career.
Go Bongo!
The guy is a fraud and a sell out
@@bieituns and you are? :D
Cool as fuck
He also quit the band first out of any of them
What an immensely likable human being that also just happens to be a Beatle.
Yes! the phrase that comes to my mind to describe him is "down to earth." That's probably why he seems to have had the least trouble in life, post-Beatles.
@@ordinarypeople20 He did have a pretty rough patch during his Harry Nilsson period, but survived, unlike Harry.
@@jeffy9145 Oh, that's right.
@@jeffy9145 He also dodged being married to a narcissist, unlike Paul and his wretched ex Heather Mills and Yoko who thought she was the Fab 5th.

Ringo sets the tone for the human race. Why can't all people talk like him, humble, gracious and inestimably understated.
❤❤
And all I have to do is act naturally. Thank you, Mr S.
Paul was also rather humble - despite his fame, he lived down the road from me. He sent his kids to the local state school, and often picked up clothes in charity shops.
But Pete Best was Better
He seems like a nice man, doesn't he? I've never seen him interviewed alone before, and I like him.
Ringo is the man. Great interview. I could listen to Ringo talk all day. He is a great human being.
He can even make a train sound good!
Ringo said, "I'm a band guy", I had a tear in my eye. I have seen the All Start Band three times, he is a band guy!
This man is so comfortable in his skin. He's been in the spotlight for 80 percent of his life. Being EXTREMELY famous is simply the reality of his life. He is extremely entertaining to listen to.
He's so comfortable in his own skin that he uses hair dye 😂
Still an English snot
Ringo too.
He’s a nitwit!!!!
@@ejr5480 Right, that's how he got where he is, by being a "nitwit", whatever that is. I bet you've done so much better with your brilliance.
The fact that he didn't listen strictly to the drummer but to the whole thing makes him, as they say, a songwriters drummer. He knows what a song needs.
That was my favorite comment in the interview for exactly the reason you just gave.
that, to me, is what makes a musician a truly great musician
Amen
In an interview George Martin’s son said that Ringo played the song.
Wow. So Dan. Who told you we don't want your spin on politics today? Who told you you owe us? I'm afraid Dan, you owe us, the public. Have some balls and report on something that might just get you murdered. I mean you reported from Nam. Take a risk and speak your mind about what's going on. WE NEED REAL NEWS REPORTERS!!!!!
Ringo at 84, he looks and sounds great, the Beatles Forever, Spectacular music for the ages and all time!! :-) ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ New Orleans
Dan is 92 and you wouldn't know it!!!
He is not quite 84. He will be 84 in July.
Everyone loves Ringo. What a nice personality and magnificent drummer.
He was not a great drummer. Barely good
@@janeoleary8454 Then you have no idea about drumming in a rock band.
@@janeoleary8454oh shut up.
The Let It Be film made it ABSOLUTELY clear how talented Ringo was and how critical he was to the success of the Beatles. The film showed how CLOSELY he listened to ANYTHING being played around him and instantly began contributing a beat and ADJUSTING that beat as he heard one of the other three experiment and alter what they were trying to achieve. If you were sitting in a room trying to quickly stumble on to a song, there was NO better drummer to have in that room than Ringo, who could do exactly that for HOURS effortlessly and develop perfectly suited drum parts to support the song. Much respect...
You describe it perfectly. And I think he seemed to do it all so effortlessly that a lot of people underestimated him. He truly did have a gift.
This is so perceptive of you, brother. Thank you for this insight.
I never thought that he was a good drummer at all. But then I listened to what drummers said, of which I knew nothing, and realised that simply because he doesn't seem to dominate or come over in the song, is what makes him a superb drummer.
⭐
If Pete Best had stayed they would have broke up mid 60s & Pete was as good as Ringo was at beginning but had no charisma, sri Pete. They all bounced off Ringo & he made no waves & was just a conduit & became a great drummer. So many people were critical in their story, from family, Brian Epstein, George Martin & recording engineers & Mr Abbey Road. Take anyone out & it be a whole different story.
Ringo is incredibly articulate. What a fine interview. He is humble and disarming. I love it when he says, "I'm a band guy."
He was "a really useful" narrator on Thomas and Friends.
And yet he was the "starr" of every Beatles film.
In the north of englad especially manchester and liverpool big heads get brought down
Of course. There aren't many solo drummers out there.
I'm a 66yr old Brit. What a lovely, grounded guy Ringo comes across as. What a life he's lived and bravo to him. Absolute bravo to you fella. I was not a Beatles fan, more a stones fan, but how can you not admire the Beatles. Don't much care for McCartney, he comes a cross as a prima donna, but the other 3 were the dogs nuts. Congrats Ringo and good on yer fella.
A lot of people underestimated Ringo, but he was the solidest beat master of his era and later too. His timing was always perfect, his beat driving the music along. He’s a nice bloke too. What a legend.
Ringo is so humble and honest. Wonderful musician and wonderful human being xx
You don't know him personally lol
@@mikedavis8008 You don't need to
I was about six when the Beatles made it, all the little kids loved Ringo. Delia Morris
@@mikedavis8008 and?
@@stucoand you don’t know that he’s humble. Everything is a show.
Ringo was always laid back and level-headed...always ready to play drums to a song. Ringo, you are a class act.
A must for good people who want to know the truth 👉The Connections (2021) [short documentary] 🌳
Well, he was the 1st one to quit The Beatles during the white album sessions. The others had to plead with him to come back. McCartney had to play the drums on "Back in the USSR" because Ringo had walked out... Given the right circumstance, Ringo was as hot headed as the rest of them.
Ringo is always happy. He is always smiling. He is an incredibly positive human.
The title should be "Ringo talks about everything except how the Beatles didn't get along."
He talked about it for a total of 6 seconds....LOL
Thank you, Trixi! 😊
Ringo is a class act. He is such a great drummer. God bless him 🙏
Great drummer? Behave
Great ? Naw he doesn't know how to do drum fills he's good at keeping the beat but there's far more better drummers out there than him
Absolutely
@@garethsavin4464 One of the greats. Not one of the best, but he never tried or wanted to be.
@@garethsavin4464yes, he is. Listen carefully to “A Day in the Life”.
Interesting to hear Ringo say that he didn't listen to the drummers specifically, but the music as a whole. Maybe that's part of the reason why he serves the music so well in a band. He's listening to the whole thing. A very musical drummer.
I thought the same.
When he said "I'm a band guy", I thought that's pretty much the foundational principle that drives everything he plays.
Ginger Baker, similarly, was a real and complete musician.
He mostly sucked!
good point.
@@maximilliancunningham6091 Baker is a very talented drummer, but a very unpleasant individual. When he was in Cream he regularly reduced Eric Clapton to tears by brawling with Jack Bruce.
people used to just put their feelings aside and do the work. I Love Lucy was full of people with amazing chemistry who hated each other off camera, and we're STILL watching it.
Ringo is quite grounded and deserves a medal for all the sitting around he must have done waiting for Paul and John, sometimes George, to be ready to play something.
Ringo Starr is the epitome of charm and grace. Lots of respect and love for him.
Indeed
What I find worldly is 4 very very young boys with "just" A tiny drum kit, 3 guitars and a harmonica, along with some amps with tubes in them created those sounds that will never be replicated again. Simply Amazing, timeless.....
Their voices and harmony was awesome as well as their creativity in supporting the group effort. Rare talent indeed.
It almost breaks my heart about the differences they battled. They didn't hate each other, they were battling personal choices.
@@williameggleton414 Imagine if John had never met Yoko. Bad personal choice by John, for sure.
Well, John Lennon's one of my favorite human beings and so is Yoko.
If the world had more down to earth human beings like Ringo on this planet earth, the world would be a happier planet even with all his wealth he is a down to earth no airs and graces with him .His mum and dad brought him up well a fantastic human being and glad he came into the group. Lovely man keep good health Ringo
what a great human
he is so positive about life
he earned his success
⭐
Dan Rather’s reaction to Ringo’s last story sums up the overall mood of this interview perfectly. One of my fave Ringo interviews ever!
A legend indeed. But a very down to earth bloke, no airs and graces. Was lucky to have quick pint with him once, many years ago, and always the same; cheerful and laughing
Never underestimate having a mostly full head of black hair. Never underestimate being always skinny.
“I’ve never listened to the drummer, i listened to whole thing”. And there you have his grateness really.
Ringo was in the Beatles, and he is still humble about it. I'st so far out. He was the backbeat of the 60s.
Wow, I hope I'm that fit and sharp at 77. I bet he lives another decade or more! Loved this Beatle...such a nice down to earth guy, too. His drumming is just now becoming appreciated the way it always should have been.
And you stop and consider he was ill as a child. Looks great now. He looks younger than Paul. IMHO
He's not 84 yet.
He was 77 during this interview. It is from 2018
Crazy that the combined age of these two guys is 175. But they're still here and we're still here to see them talk, and isn't that something.
Ringo Starr comes across as a genuinely decent, grounded chap you'd love to meet. You get the impression, if he had the time, he'd be so interesting to talk to. What a Starr!
and not only that, but he'd happily have a chat to you, to me or anyone who approached him
@philgrossman660 I did meet him several times as a teenager as he was our neighbour in Weybridge. Now I’m 70 I’m struck by how charming and kind he was to an awestruck girl he always gave time to and never brushed off, when I’d hang around the bottom of our drive hoping to catch a glimpse! (On the other hand Cynthia Lennon, she and John lived nearby at the time, behaved like a fish wife 😂)
@@mgeiser6951 Very interesting, early 1970's?
Yes, he's a starr alright. Give me his number and I'll ringo him for a chat.
Ringo is a treasure.
If Aliens land and ask for a reason that they shouldn't blow up the planet we should introduce them to Ringo.
You are a genius
Love that
0:40 It's funny to hear Ringo call Paul the "workaholic" of the band". Ringo is STILL touring! I had the pleasure of seeing him and his All-Star Band just last year....Amazing. He donates his portion of the souvenir sales to charitable causes as well. Ringo Starr is an amazing man that also fits the mold of a "workaholic".
Yes...I have seen the All Starr band twice, both times at Univ. Amphitheater in L.A. Once his other drummer was Ginger Baker of Cream, so you know there'd be no way I'd miss Ringo & Ginger drumming together on Sunshine of Your Love. I'd like to see him take the young drummer Sina on one of his All Starr tours. The 2 times I saw him in L.A, a drummer and host was Sheila E.....another great drumming talent.
Just a guess on my part, but I remember reading an interview with one of them (maybe Ringo, but might have been John) a long time ago, and he said that as they gradually got tired of it all after Sgt Peppers, that it was always Paul who was the "Okay boys, time to make another album" guy, and they'd work up the energy to make another album. That period might have been what he was referring to when he said Paul the the workaholic. I think they all had a lot of energy and wanted to keep making music, but Paul was the one who kept pushing to keep the Beatles together (from my understanding, anyway).
What an Absolute Treasure Ringo is.......the World is so Fortunate.
I saw Ringo and his all-star band 2 yrs ago. He still has it!
Ringo looks amazing for his age.
Color the hair.
Unnatural is the word I would choose,
@@bren333 84....just saying
@@user-ly8bq3tx5j 84 year olds should age gracefully ..... just saying.
@@bren333 People have rights to appear how they feel comfortable with themselves , it is not the business of others to dictate how others should dress or what hairstyle they should have .Today the world is full of ageism where they expect people at a certain age to appear all looking the same , Where is individuality gone to ?
I could listen to Ringo forever, no ego, but he has oceans of Charisma. ❤
No ego? He was the 1st one to quit the band. He walked out because he thought he wasn't getting as much recognition as the others. He had an ego alright. A nice guy, no doubt, but not as easy going as his image would have you believe.
@@johnc3403That’s not true… he felt like he wasn’t playing well and the other three were icing him out and getting along fine without him, etc. Paul’s lady fling at the time said Paul felt guilty for being “too hard” on Ringo and was being moody and critical-which is a whole other story because Yoko being around drove Paul nuts! So one day Ringo left for a much needed two week vacation and actually thought about quitting but came back (thankfully!)
One of the greatest lives ever lived.... Love you Ringo!
Need a whole season of this, man. Ringo is the king!
"I'm a band guy." That sums Ringo up pretty much. He knows his place, he's not a showboat like Buddy Rich or Gene Krupa. And he didn't try to be like other drummers. Then again, being the Beatles' drummer worked out pretty well for him, why should he be what he's not?
Billy Joel really
⭐
A band fired me for growing tomatoes while playing drums...a skill that took me over 3 1/2 decades to master.
But then again you wouldn't know those names if they weren't "showboats."
He looks fantastic at 83
Somewhere between 'I Wana hold your hand' and today I went to Ringo as my favorite Beatle. There's mind, heart, soul... then there's just real life ♡.
for me it was the movies. He was such a natural performer, but at the same time always humble. Always the butt of the joke, taking abuse, being chased around for his ring, and consistently had the funniest lines. Even in Yellow Submarine when it wasn't really him, they kept that authentic.
Love Ringo---always steady and honest: the real deal, no more or less.
This dude is the definition of "Go with the flow". Ringo is the ultimate team player. Love his attitude
People who go with the flow don’t take risks. I see what you mean though. Very humble and chill
@Billyjoeljoel-lw2kr
No because it's all in your delusional mind
@Billyjoeljoel-lw2kr
Get lost scammer
@@SolarEclipse1996 His last show was in front of his bedroom mirror. You shoulda been there.
A snare drum and brushes...how Ringo got his start playing in the lunch room at a factory in Liverpool You always learn something new!
what about the one where he's a child in hospital and someone comes in to entertain and teach (including some basic instruments)
..and Ringo likes the maracas, the bongos, the triangle and drum etc..
and the rest is history.. ?
Ringo is very cool! He’s always impressed me.
What an amazing guy, so modest and talented. Much loved.
Thank you RINGO for saying that Paul got you guys going! I've been saying that since the band stopped touring.
I've heard Ringo say that before. It's really nice to give Paul that credit. People criticize Paul for being bossy, but as Ringo said if Paul didn't call them to work they would just be sitting in the garden. Paul is like that classmate who begs everyone to work on the group project while everyone is playing Call of Duty.
@@TomCruz54321 I think they might have stayed together if they'd taken more time off between albums. There was no reason to do three albums in a one-year time span. It's not like the public was going to forget THE BEATLES. Had I been John, I'd have told Paul if he wanted to work so badly, he could do a solo album. Meanwhile the others could get a well-deserved rest and time away from each other. "See ya in six months, Paulie!"
Without Lennon, there are no Beatles !! maybe if they would have taken a break from each other once in a while they might have lasted longer than 1970. Yes the Beatles are the greatest band of all time and have Timeless Classics that will be talking about 200 years from now but I will emphasize it was John who got the Beatles back together twice: once after their first disastrous trip in Hamburg and after 1966 when Lennon admitted he missed working with the other four after he got done finishing filming How I won the war.
The beatles magic will never ever die.
Ringo looks great and he’s still sharp as a tack. I’m so glad we still have him and Paul with us. 🙏
A humble gentleman and a wonderful drummer! He had some mad skills on the drums.
Ringo looks so damn cool!
“Rain” is often my favorite Beatles song, because it shows off all their best. Beautiful singing harmony, a strumming guitar not showing off, some great bass by Paul, and maybe the best drum track in all of Rock & Roll. That one, and Ticket To Ride. No Ringo, no Beatles.
Drive My Car.
@@razorsedge7100 You got me there. That was the first track on the first album I ever owned. I assumed all music in the world was going to be that good.
And “She said she Said”
Well, actually Ticket to ride drum part was composed by Paul McCartney
@@rupert2578 Interesting note. What makes the TTR drum part stand out is the slightly off-beat part, probably caused by a left- handed drummer playing on a righty kit. Could have been Ringo or Paul, but either way, it works so well.
Ringo is a class act!!!
From Feb. 9,1964, through "A Hard Day's Night" that same summer and beyond to all of the great albums, Ringo has been a steady force, thanks for your music, thanks for your attitude and thanks for never giving up or in!
Ringo is a GEM. And the World needs The Beatles more than Ever!
I saw Paul play an incredible 3 hour set running around the stage in 2022. It's amazing how youthful and energetic they still are. Lot's of Love in their Hearts!
Yes and he was almost 80 years old at the time.
Ringo is the glue that kept The Beatles together, for that alone, which makes him the biggest star in the group. 😉 Slainte ❤❤❤❤
And when he joined the Beatles, the other 3 guys knew Ringo was the perfect drummer for the Beatles
You look great Ringo! Love u! Nice to see u!
I always loved Ringo's voice..some of my favorite all times songs are sung by Ringo.."don't pass me by" , "octopuses garden", their Perkins cover of "matchbox" " with a little help from my friends" ,etc..I'd love those songs even if they weren't the beatles..God bless Ringo..Paul too..glad they're still with us..like family almost..
Don’t forget “Yellow Submarine”, “With A Little Help From My Friends”, “I Wanna Be Your Man” and “Good Night”.😊
I've seen hundreds and hundreds of Ringo clips...this one is especially good
I agree, I must say I heard Ringo say he was the best drummer in the world in an interview, I mean " were does he get that idea from"? crazy statement to make, nice to see a very humble guy here though.
There’s only one thing I can say: I love this man. Ringo is such a hero to me, and he’s been a HUGE part of the soundtrack to my life. And what a great guy !
legend, met him twice, ultra nice & humble guy. great he is still around.
All the Beatles are class acts, I’ve enjoyed their music for 62 years. Thank you
What a humble Superstar, Legend!!!! So rare to have such a down to earth Musician
Ringo was always my favorite, I love them all. They’re a HUGE part of my childhood. But Ringo will always be my favorite. 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
My favorite too!
My favourite too!
And mine.❤
If any man could live forever, it should be Ringo!! Love him!! ❤️❤️
You never have met him, you don't even know him. Yet you say you love him. And why should he live forever, He is no more special then you are.

100% real person = all time star and even bigger heart and soul combination ! THANK YOU RINGO STARR !
I had the privilege & thrilling honor of meeting Ringo years ago when the All Star Band played at our local Casino. He was kind, gracious & autographed my Beatles CD! I had a difficult time speaking lol. Star struck... told him how CUTE he was 😅 I've seen his concerts a few times; he's fantastic! One of his guitar players threw me a pik ..it says RINGO on it. I'll cherish these items forever! Thank you Mr Starkey! (He doesn't sign autographs anymore)❤❤❤
You were “Star Struck”! No pun intended, yeah?😄
What a British Legend!
Ringo and the Beatles changed my life. I am a professional guitarist because the Beatles on Ed Sullivan changed my life in a second. Many of us have that same story. Thank you, boys.

RINGO LOOKS WONDERFUL FULL OF ENERGY GOD BLESS YOU RINGO❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ringo will always be my hero he brought me out of my comber when i was 3 years old i was calling for him it was 64 65
Ringo === unbridled brilliance ... Beatles most fortunate to have him ... George Martin knew Ringo's worth, certainly as much an asset as the other 3 ...indeed a truly amazing unique musician and human !!!
He has so much integrity! Always loved him! He’s a great soul ♥️
What a lovely spirit he has. Always liked Ringo. So glad he has endured and flown as he has.
If you wanna sing the blues ...youve got to pay your dues, ...and you know it dont come easy....i started watching ringo in the early sixties ...so i grew up with him, i cant imagine how things could ever be as good , without Ringo !!!
Life *is* good, Ring.
You dear, dear Beatle, you.
I call him Mr. Starky until I know him better.
“Ring”.😂
So glad he didn’t bash any of the guys! He really is a class act! I LOVED The Beatles! Ringo was a favorite! ❤❤
Ringo & George - the Beatles w/ hearts of gold.
Love listening to Beatles songs. So nostalgic and brings on a happy feeling as I reminisce about living in those years. Happier times compared to today for sure.
He looks amazing for his age ❤ legend
I liked that cool little tidbit about the way he'd listen to music in his youth. He'd let the *_whole song_* wash over him (just like most of us do), rather than just doing what one might _expect_ a drummer to do - namely, focus solely on the drum parts. And this is part of why he's so *_revered_* - he's always looking at the "big picture" - looking for what will best *_serve the song._* Respect.
He has always been a coherent and eloquent individual.
I love how Ringo keeps it real, peace, love & happiness!! ✌️
I just got back from a tour of the Beatles homes (mystery tour) in Liverpool and you realise these guys were grounded from day one. Best band in the world ever! IMV. 4 guys in perfect harmony!
Such a supportive spirit, playing for the song, the other players, and the listeners. He sets a great example for all musicians. . . . . . .
I met Ringo backstage about 10 years ago. What a treat. He was so cool.
So humble…great interview
Ringo was always an underrated drummer. Him and George did so much for the group that sometimes seems to get lost. George had an insane level of output that was suppressed by John and Paul as well. Some of the best "Beatles" stuff was Harrison songs that came out after the Beatles broke up.
According to George, only in the later years he wrote more songs, I wouldn't call it an insane amount.
@@jimcoleman598he was an integral part of the whole. I do get your point. It is refreshing to think how a couple George songs are part of the tapestry of music we would call timeless. While My Guitar and Something…..two incredible pieces of music. Shalom
Don't bother me
Blue jay way
I me mine
Old brown shoe!!!!
Come on!!
Those are his greats. All the Beatles songs done by George where killer
@@NintenDub Blue Jay Way is weak. I Me Mine -so so. He had some good songs, yes, but nowhere near John & Paul
@@jimcoleman598 Yes, but Harrison's songs dominated on the last several Beatle albums: ("While My Guitar Gently Weeps": White album, "Something": Abby Road).
We are so fortunate to still have Ringo and Paul with us in good health . God bless them both .
They are musicians not saints.
Not Paul. His name is Billy Shears/William Shepherd.
@@waynejohanson1083He never said nor implied that they were saints, you insufferrable muppet. Perhaps one day you will grow up.
Perhaps.
Absolutely love Ringo what a beautiful human being 🕊️🕊️🕊️
I love that he says time is his gift, the man has everything in the world and understands the value of time 2:28
Sir Richard is such a treasure. 🫶🏼
As the drummer of Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, Ringo was actually a major part of the Liverpool music scene when John, Paul, and George were still young greenhorns.
You've got to love this guy. 🤗
God Bless Ringo.
