  • Ringo, Barbara Bach and John Matuszac sit down with John Davidson to promote their new movie Caveman in 1980. It's pretty apparent none of them are feeling any pain. John Davidson has a hell of time trying to conduct the interview. The intros and outros that John Davidson does were not normally part of the program. It appears they had to edit the interview to make it approprite for air. Karen Grassle (Caroline on Little House on the Prairie) and Andy Gibb were also guests that day and hung around for Ringo. And no, I don't have Andy's performance from earlier in the show. Part One of Two. Click here for Part Two: • Ringo Starr on the Joh...

    This is a classic example of how NOT to host a show. Obviously, Davidson was not prepared for Ringo in that condition. But instead of simply accepting it, rolling with it and maybe even having fun with it, he stiffens up, gets defensive and the whole thing just gets worse and worse, and worse.

      Yep, he was living like a king, in lavish, up-town penthouses, being chauffeured around in the nicest cars, wearing the nicest clothes, eating at the nicest 5-star restaurants, while writing songs trying to convince the rest of us 'lowly serfs' that we'd be better off living under an authoritarian communist regime, owning nothing, and subsisting only with the most basic resources. But worry not... That lowly standard of living would've ONLY applied to us regular rubes, but NEVER to John or Yoko!! 😈👹

    I love that he screwed up John's show. Couldn't happen to a prissier prick.

      Yeah, that's why I think Ringo ended up acting the way he did on the show, he didn't know how to pronounce his band-maid's name so he's going to go out and be a mispronouncement to the show...

    This guy is too mannered, he's too uptight, he doesn't roll with the punches, he didn't lose the script and he mispronounced McCartney's name, all of that spells fun for Richard Starkey

    Where does Andy fit into this interview? Was he interviewed before Ringo and was it recorded?

      Andy was very snugly fit in those tight-fitting designer jeans of his.
