Quoted from Maccalvr
I don't know if I would call him amazing. Amazing and Ringo? It doesn't really fit. I mean he's good and all but amazing? Would anyone consider him an innovater or creative in his drumming? Seriously because I don't know the technicalities of drumming so maybe he was. Who knows.

Now as for Keith Moon.... Glad to see there are others that appreciate him!


are u kidding??????? he wasnt technically good, but he sure was CREATIVE!!!..........

Whats the difference between Ringo and a stopped watch?


The watch is on time twice a day.


I'd like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves, and I hope we pass the audition.

The only one I can think of is "Birthday", he could have done some fancy stuff instead of just abusing the bass pedal.

The more I really listen to his drums the more I realize how great he was. I love the drums on A Day in the Life!! I also love them on Hello Goodbye, Come Together, Helter Skelter, Let it Be etc. He's awesome.

Phil Collins quote:

Though some have tried to downplay his contributions to the band, Starr's unique drumming style played a major role in the overall sound of The Beatles. To this day, many drummers list Starr as a major influence including Max Weinberg of The E Street Band, Liberty DeVitto of Billy Joel's band, Phil Collins, Andy Sturmer of Jellyfish, and others. According to Collins, Ringo is "vastly underrated. The drum fills on "A Day In The Life" are very complex things. You could take a great drummer today and say, 'I want it like that.' They wouldn't know what to do." Lennon, McCartney and Harrison have all said that Ringo was the best rock and roll drummer in the world.
