I wish the Beatles could have gone on forever. There will never be another band like them. Thank you John, Paul, George, and Ringo for all the beautiful and cutting-edge music you gave us.
the beatles WILL go on forever. well, at least for quite a while yet. and i'd like to say, thanks, "on behalf of the group and ourselves and i hope we passed the audition." when ringo quit the beatles in 1968, the other beatles should've jokingly threatened to replace him with pete best. that would've been funny.
Ringo always ends his speeches with " peace and love" and I would think "whatever". But now when I look at the world it is refreshing to hear that phrase with everything going on.
@@jamesong.a.7695 You're off if you think the world is getting better. It only seems like that because people are afraid to say what they really want unless it's behind a TH-cam comment. Enacting" hate speech" laws and other such nonsense like "cancel culture". In a sinful world you cannot legislate morality. Thank Jesus he died for our sins was buried and rose again !
I was lucky to have lived it, I was 9 yrs old when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan show, my bedtime was 8:00p mom let me and my bros stay up late to watch it. It was a real treat. and to follow them and the rest of the generation Just don't have words to describe it.
I was 16! Great times! Wanted to grow my hair long like that, but the sadistic coaches at my high school wouldn't let us. But eventually, it was like George McGovern said, "I really don't think long hair is going to destroy the country."
Unfortunately in the UK we didn’t see the Ed Sullivan performance until years later. My first memory is of watching the Shea Stadium performance In 67 & boy did the hairs on my neck stand up.
I honestlu can't fathom that a childhood memory of yours is something that is so iconic, you got to stay up late and watch the start of the british invasion! Super cool man.
The best thing about being a Beatles fan? I was 13 in 1963 so I more or less grew up with them. Their music, be it together or individually, is the tapestry of my life.
Same here! I was 11 and had just got my transistor radio. I loved it when the Beatles music was played. Their music has been an integral part of my life ever since.
I hate to hear people disparage Ringo's status a a drummer... The guy came up with so many original, instantly recognizable drum parts, and was the heart of the greatest band of all time.
Ringo's drumming is un1que because he was a left handed drummer playing a right handed drum kit. Rain is my number 1 song highlighting Ringo's amazing drumming.
@@user-rs4ci3fn2d First off not ALL real brothers share, in fact many don't share anything at all. John, Paul and George knew each other since they were teens long before the fame & money and Ringo is a only child. So in fact they have referred each other as brothers many times because they went through so much together including arguments . Keep a open mind.
I love that this video was made about Ringo. It’s true. It was really Paul, George, and John who really caught everyone’s eyes including mine. I always thought that Ringo was just a drummer and that’s it. Now watching this I feel more for him and understand that he really did make a big difference in the Beatles.
Octopus' Garden is one of my favorite Beatles songs because Ringo has very underrated singing talents. And he even started a fundraiser on IG to clean the oceans for his "friends the octopuses." God speed man
Hey all you brilliant musicologists !! I'm a pro Drummer with 30+ years of experience and skills from Death metal to afro-cubain grooves and all in between.... That said, Ringo is a Drummer with truly good times and creativity that combine swing toms fills in a more mainstream musical situation. With such strong melody's, a more busy or complex rhythms wouldn't serve the songs. Sometimes it's not what you do but what you no do that's is important. Humility and tasty choices serves what became The Beatles.
This is a very nice article about these two great artists and performers, Paul and Ringo.. I want to thank you very much for putting it together. It's a lonely thing when you don't have your other brothers with you, as is their absence, John and George. It's good to hear that the two are together, working together. It reunites the world, in a sense. Thank you.
Show up, be real every day, make honest effort, don't slag others. I think Ringo was raised right & came up with his own true honest self as time went on. I think the universe digs this guy!
I am so grateful to have witnessed The Beatles from the very start hearing I Want To Hold Your Hand on AM radio back in November 1963. Ringo always played the fire out of the drums!
I share your gratitude. The Beatles wrote some of the major soundtracks to the early part of my life. To listen to them now always revitalizes me and continues to amaze with their immense inventiveness.
I had a plastic Beatles guitar. It's probably herecy to say this but I loved the Monkees. They were on TV. Didn't fulley appreciate the Beatles until later. When I got a record player and a Beatles album for xmas.
I played lead and rhythm guitar for many years... To get into a band I had to play bass. I thought easy... it took me a while to even like it Bass players are always taken for granted.. but to do it well, you and the drummer are the backbone of the band. I can’t even recall how any times I could look back at my drummer and knew were in sync..bass players motto .. stay in tune and keep the beat.
Jack Bruce and John Entwhistle were always my favorite bassists, and give a shout out to Steve Upton of Wishbone Ash!!!!! He really lit em up on his drum kit playing on Handy, Phoenix, and other Wishbone songs!!!!!!!
@@thomasfoss9963 Honestly don't know anything about Wishbone Ash - can't comment. Suddenly had a thought: what about Carl Palmer on drums? Pi**es all ove Starr.
@@thomasfoss9963 Bruce and Entwhistle were both pioneers. Both had very unorthodox styles, used fingers instead of picks and often would play a flurry of notes that somehow made sense and sounded good together. No slapping - no other fancy techniques... just pure control of the instrument.
I love them both and will always love the music. A band ahead of their time, The Beatles transitioned music and fashion through the 60’s and innovating new sounds and great songwriting..
The Beatles changed music, period! All four were gifted but the fact that they all managed to be in the same little band... An incredible bit of luck for the world! It's also worth noting the influence and importance of Brian Epstein and George Martin on the Beatles. Those two polished and enhanced the developing band into the legend we remember today. I've listened to the Beatles since I was a kid in the 60's and now, my daughter is a second generation fan too. People will be listening to and analyzing their music for years to come just like Mozart, Beethoven, and other great composers.
I think the Fab 4 were a bit more than just "luck". Time will show it was a Destiny. Sounds Corny, and I am not one for that sort of stuff, so aside from my meeting my wife of 47 years when I was 13, she 11 at a friends house, playing Spin the Bottle and kissing wach other for our first kisses, The Beatles were destined to be together to deliver this Gift to our Generation. And to tge Generations to follow. I have my 3 and 1/2 year grandaughter into The Beatles. We listen to them on Sirius XM channel 18, when we drive her to and from preschool on certain days. She always asks me...."Poppi, which Beatle is Singing Now". I remain overjoyed to tell her if it is John, and then Paul joining John and/ or George and of course Ringo!! I think, she likes the name Ringo alot. 🕷🕷🕷🕷
It's funny how your perspectives change as you experience Life. For nearly my first 20 years as a musician I played lead and rhythm guitar and sang in all my bands. When I switched to bass in a couple of bands in the 80s I was listening to Sgt. Pepper and an epiphany smacked me. How could I have listened to the record all those years and never realized that it is a _Bass Player's_ album!?!? That's not to say that the entire band was not magic on every song or that Paul walked over anyone else in the mix. Listening to the incredible way he uses his instrument to weave everything else into the amazing tapestry it is gives me a new appreciation of this classic.
I had this revelation myself, it solidified Sgt. Pepper’s as my favorite album. The basslines for Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Lovely Rita, Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite, A Day in the Life…. such splendid works of art!!!
I grew up through childhood listening to The Beatles. They are why I picked up a guitar in 1968 and never put it down since. I'm 60 now, and have played professionally until the last 5 years, when I gave it all to Jesus and now a worship leader. You could almost say The Beatles led me to the Lord. The Fab 4 will always be my favorite band ever.
I absolutely love Paul and Ringo. They have so much history together. They are brothers and will continue to be brothers forever. The Beatles played a huge part in the lives of so many people, particularly, those growing up in the 1960s. Thank you Paul, Ringo, George and John, for the wonderful memories and of course, the amazing music.
But it is a myth that they were four from start to finish. They were five members, altough not at the same time. John, Paul, George, Ringo and last member in William.
In the early 70's Ringo was on the radio every bit as much (or more) as Paul and John, and more than George. Photograph, The No No Song, Back Off Boogaloo, You're Sixteen and It Don't Come Easy...
The music of The Beatles is the first music that I can clearly remember. My brother was (and still is a huge fan) and he made a huge fan out of me, his baby brother. "Brothers fight sometimes." Yup. My brother and I had a few doozies in our day, but you know what got us back together? Sitting down and listening to The Beatles. How can you stay mad at each other when you're both singing and playing along to great song? Politicians, please take note.
Extremely informative! I'm a pretty big Beatles fan and historian, and there was more that I didn't know, then did know, in this presentation. I wouldn't go to see Ringo or Paul as solo artists, but just like they both said in the video, when the two of them play together, it's magic! And THAT, if I ever had the chance, is a show I would go to see!
Although between Paul and Ringo left the band, They're staying with good relationship. Other bands do not do so. They 're alone each after disband. Such a point of view Paul and Ringo, they're shown an example to everyone.
Paul and Ringo reunited musically way before the 1990's. Ringo played on Paul's "Tug of War" and "Pipes of Peace" albums in the early 80's and Ringo acted in Paul's film "Give My Regards to Broad Street" as well as played on the soundtrack.
Ringo Starr was in a band that was more famous than the Beatles back then, Paul, John, and George recognize he was the missing piece and stole him from the other band.
Ever listen to the sessions where the Beatles were working out their tunes, changing things as they went, etc.? Ringo was on top of everything. "Never missed a beat," so to speak.
Ringo came up with the perfect parts for each song. Other drummers would have overplayed and detracted from the song.(imagine keath moon playing with the Beatles). You don't have to play paradittles or drum rolls unless you're in a marching band.
@@damianmorningstarr drums and bass make up the rhythm section- we set the tempo and the beat and we have the power to speed up a song or slow it down.
The Beatles were a contentious bunch of musical geniuses. Each particular in their own way, a wonder they didn't commit homicide. They were precursors of punk and metal, each willing to push and kill. "Come Together" a case in point. Sing any refrain, then Pauls bassline.
Ringo thinks the other three are close so he goes to John and John says, "I thought it was you three!" Then he goes to Paul and Paul says, "I thought it was you three!" And so we learn by implication that George Harrison was the glue that held the band together.
Paul and Ringo were always my favourite Beatles. From the time I was a child. That they are the two left amonst us seems a perverse sort of serendipity. But I thank what ever Universal power that deems it so. Long may they live in excellent health. And RIP to John and George, the two other and *essential* corners of the square.
I remember being 3 years old and I was in my older brother's bedroom. He had an LP of Revolver where there was a group photo of the Beatles on the back cover. All 4 of them were wearing sunglasses and I kept asking my brother which one was Ringo. I don't know why I was fascinated by Ringo but there's something about him that's friendly and children sense that. Ringo is criminally underrated as a drummer. When Mark Lewisohn was researching his book he listened to every recording The Beatles made while they were togeher. He read all the logs from the recording sessions at Abbey Road Studios. You know how a band will stop a song because someone made a mistake? According to Lewisohn, Ringo was only responsible for "less than a dozen" mistakes in a span of 8 years. Less than a dozen can be anywhere from 1 to 11. If it was 11, it means that for 5 years Ringo averaged 1 mistake per year and for 3 years he averaged 2 a year. Think about that. I've also read that Ringo's tempos were so exact that George Martin could easily piece together multiple takes of the same song. And when thousands of screaming girls made it impossible for The Beatles to hear themselves, Ringo would read Paul and John's lips to figure out what he should be playing. Oh, and when The Beatles started recording "Hey Jude", Ringo went to the bathroom as Paul sang the opening. Then Ringo quietly tip-toed to his drum kit, sat down and started playing exactly when he was supposed to without coming in too early or too late. On top of all that, the guy could make a club filled with people want to move. He came up with the drum parts on countless top selling LPs and singles. And he came up with perfect drum parts in all sorts of styles and tempos and made some of the most innovative and experimental music ever recorded. Some really stupid people think an undeserving Ringo won the lottery when he joined The Beatles but the other Beatles were lucky to find him.
@@olskzeri8007 He was born on the 18th June 1942 making him this June . John born 1940 he would have been 82 ..George born 1943 he would be 78 and Ringo born July 1940 ..So none of the Beatles would be 84 dead or alive
Ringo’s treatment by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was mirrored by that of his friend Todd Rundgren. The HOF sometimes needs to be EMBARRASSED before they let someone in. Paul’s actions to get Ringo in speak volumes about the induction process. Only the “Cool Kids” get in 🙄
Ringo is a REAL musician. He loathes drum solos because so few drummers (besides him) execute them well. Most drummers are just showoffs but not Ringo. He puts the music FIRST! Like just take those drum circles you see in the park or at the beach. They're just noise man. Noice that goes on for freaking HOURS! This is the image that Starr despises. He was the perfect fit for the greatest Rock band ever.
Every drummer I’ve known, learn’s a new lick & tries to incorporate it in every song , never questioning…….should I…..because I can. Ringo didn’t & there for showed us restraint in playing for the song, that Mantra has never left me & served me well over the years.
Ringo is great but give me Keith Moon or John Bonham. Rings is nice & solid tho recording sessions with Paul a nightmare as he dictates or plays it himself but Ringo is easy going.
Ringo Starr is so cute in the sense that he isn't the best singer buy he seems to have fun ! He seems like he's a good guy seems happy . I'm glad his illness are done..i really like Ringo
The studio techs who themselves worked tirelessly on Beatles records said Ringo worked harder than anyone else in the band. He was often the first there and last to leave.
Ringo is my favorite Beatle, I grew up with him, Carlin, and Baldwin narrating Thomas the Tank Engine and through that I discovered the Beatles He’s super down to earth, sweet, funny, a fantastic drummer, and has super underrated music albums with my favorite being Time Takes Time
Paul and ringo definitely were the complement to John and George. John and George were hippies and experimental. Ringo and Paul were more down to earth.
If you are ever sad just listen to Beatles bloopers. It’s hard to get me to laugh at anything even when I’m in my best mood but those are top notch comedy
I was obsessed by Ringo after I watched Yellow Submarine cartoon when i was 4, 20 years ago! I wouldn’t have know the beatles if it wasnt for my dad’s listening their songs all the time
The world is already feels foreign after the passing of Prince, Bowie and Eddie Van Halen recently. But when Paul and Ringo go, it’ll feel like a different existence all together.
its always weird seeing these videos from years ago remastered in hd and 4k. I remember the early 00's tube tv's. Something about seeing history through a tube tv sorta made it all seem like it was magic. Now i see it all like i'm there. I'll never get used to it.
11:25 | Paul and Ringo didn't work together since 1997 ('Beautiful Night'). In 1982 they played in 'Take It Away' and also in 1984 they were together for _Give My Regards To Broad Street_ , as musicians and actors.
"People, when they´re younger, never realize the pleasure treasure life´s got. But as they grew older, they realize a lot". Lambert-Hendricks and Ross.
My favourite Beatle is ranked as follows: (1) Si Paul McCartney, (2) Sir Ringo Starr, (3) George Harrison. There are only 2 Bass Players for me in this world. Sir Paul McCartney (Beatles) and (2) Randy Meisner (The Eagles). There is no other Bassist who can hold a candle to them. I was privileged to see the Beatles perform at Festival Hall Melbourne in 1964. We were four rows back from the stage and I could not hear a bloody thing. The girls were going mental. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
i like these videos. In my later 60s, i'm well versed in the 'troubles' the Beatles had with each other. It's a bit of a switch to hear a lot of positive stuff for a change, and i've noticed that these Grunge videos seem to tilt that way - but that's ok.
Who is your favorite Beatle?
Harrison
John
A true Beatles fan has no favourite! A jigsaw puzzle needs four corners to be complete.
John
@@brianparker663 I only like John the best because of his work as a solo artist
Ringo's a survivor. He was not expected to survive the illnesses he had as a child. Now he's 81 and has outlived 2 of his younger bandmates.
don’t think john’s death counts since that wasn’t a health issue but i get your point and agree

The “Carry That Weight” solo… according to Ringo, he took the drum solo from Iron Butterfly’s In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida and adapted those ideas.
George Harrison- (All things must pass) is my most treasured album.
Except he ripped off the tune of My sweet lord
@@zapkvr Says some Judge in L.A.
Good one, but mine is, Plastic Ono Band.
They changed my world music became my everything what a time it was I was blessed to grow up those years
I absolutely love Paul and Ringo. They have so much history together. They are brothers and will continue to be brothers forever. The Beatles played a huge part in the lives of so many people, particularly, those growing up in the 1960s. Thank you Paul, Ringo, George and John, for the wonderful memories and of course, the amazing music.
But it is a myth that they were four from start to finish. They were five members, altough not at the same time. John, Paul, George, Ringo and last member in William.
In the early 70's Ringo was on the radio every bit as much (or more) as Paul and John, and more than George. Photograph, The No No Song, Back Off Boogaloo, You're Sixteen and It Don't Come Easy...
Ringo and Paul have blessed us all
It's a four way tie for my favorite Beatle. Ringo's enthusiasm and charisma is infectious.
So glad they were willing to reconcile their creativity to make us, fans happy 😊
The music of The Beatles is the first music that I can clearly remember. My brother was (and still is a huge fan) and he made a huge fan out of me, his baby brother. "Brothers fight sometimes." Yup. My brother and I had a few doozies in our day, but you know what got us back together? Sitting down and listening to The Beatles. How can you stay mad at each other when you're both singing and playing along to great song? Politicians, please take note.
Extremely informative! I'm a pretty big Beatles fan and historian, and there was more that I didn't know, then did know, in this presentation. I wouldn't go to see Ringo or Paul as solo artists, but just like they both said in the video, when the two of them play together, it's magic! And THAT, if I ever had the chance, is a show I would go to see!
They both lead great bands and put on great shows. Learn to love music.
They are strong people, it's nice to see how they brotherhood is doing great
Although between Paul and Ringo left the band,
They're staying with good relationship.
Other bands do not do so. They 're alone each after disband.
Such a point of view
Paul and Ringo, they're shown an example to everyone.
Paul and Ringo reunited musically way before the 1990's. Ringo played on Paul's "Tug of War" and "Pipes of Peace" albums in the early 80's and Ringo acted in Paul's film "Give My Regards to Broad Street" as well as played on the soundtrack.
Ringo Starr was in a band that was more famous than the Beatles back then, Paul, John, and George recognize he was the missing piece and stole him from the other band.
Ever listen to the sessions where the Beatles were working out their tunes, changing things as they went, etc.?
Ringo was on top of everything. "Never missed a beat," so to speak.
Ringo and George were very close friends right up until George passed.
Ringo came up with the perfect parts for each song. Other drummers would have overplayed and detracted from the song.(imagine keath moon playing with the Beatles). You don't have to play paradittles or drum rolls unless you're in a marching band.
Firstly, paradiddle refers to equal hand speed, or not having a weak hand
This is a fundamental rudiment for every drummer
I love both remaining Beatles.
the bass and the drums are always connected with each other. I played bass in a band for 28 years and I was always tight with the drummer(s).
Nice...they make the song too
@@damianmorningstarr drums and bass make up the rhythm section- we set the tempo and the beat and we have the power to speed up a song or slow it down.
The Beatles were a contentious bunch of musical geniuses. Each particular in their own way, a wonder they didn't commit homicide. They were precursors of punk and metal, each willing to push and kill. "Come Together" a case in point. Sing any refrain, then Pauls bassline.
Ringo was frankly, underrated as a rock drummer. He was fantastic in reality. A perfect fit.
And a great human being.
Ringo has been a class act, for a long, long time.
Nice video it gives a bit of insight to there life long relationship as friends and brothers and business partners in alot of ways
Ringo thinks the other three are close so he goes to John and John says, "I thought it was you three!" Then he goes to Paul and Paul says, "I thought it was you three!" And so we learn by implication that George Harrison was the glue that held the band together.
One of the glues was that the other three all loved Ringo always.
Paul and Ringo were always my favourite Beatles. From the time I was a child. That they are the two left amonst us seems a perverse sort of serendipity. But I thank what ever Universal power that deems it so. Long may they live in excellent health. And RIP to John and George, the two other and *essential* corners of the square.
I loved them all. John was my favorite after they broke up. I have all of his albums.😊❤
Very touching and moving ... two of the best !
I love how comfortable Ringo is with his place in the band. He once introduced himself as "The least famous Beatle."
I saw Ringo live in concert
I loved it
He is great
Ringo Star and his all star band !!
The Beatles will still be popular 1,000 years from now.
I remember being 3 years old and I was in my older brother's bedroom. He had an LP of Revolver where there was a group photo of the Beatles on the back cover. All 4 of them were wearing sunglasses and I kept asking my brother which one was Ringo. I don't know why I was fascinated by Ringo but there's something about him that's friendly and children sense that.
Ringo is criminally underrated as a drummer. When Mark Lewisohn was researching his book he listened to every recording The Beatles made while they were togeher. He read all the logs from the recording sessions at Abbey Road Studios. You know how a band will stop a song because someone made a mistake? According to Lewisohn, Ringo was only responsible for "less than a dozen" mistakes in a span of 8 years. Less than a dozen can be anywhere from 1 to 11. If it was 11, it means that for 5 years Ringo averaged 1 mistake per year and for 3 years he averaged 2 a year. Think about that.
I've also read that Ringo's tempos were so exact that George Martin could easily piece together multiple takes of the same song. And when thousands of screaming girls made it impossible for The Beatles to hear themselves, Ringo would read Paul and John's lips to figure out what he should be playing. Oh, and when The Beatles started recording "Hey Jude", Ringo went to the bathroom as Paul sang the opening. Then Ringo quietly tip-toed to his drum kit, sat down and started playing exactly when he was supposed to without coming in too early or too late. On top of all that, the guy could make a club filled with people want to move. He came up with the drum parts on countless top selling LPs and singles. And he came up with perfect drum parts in all sorts of styles and tempos and made some of the most innovative and experimental music ever recorded. Some really stupid people think an undeserving Ringo won the lottery when he joined The Beatles but the other Beatles were lucky to find him.
An iconic moment was the Take it Away song and video from 81/82. Paul, Ringo and George Martin together.
They need eachother in each others lives
Paul is 79 Ringo 81 ..Look at them especially Ringo he looks amazing. They’ve been buddies around 60 yrs fantastic
"Sir Paul" (William) is 84 years old.
@@olskzeri8007 He was born on the 18th June 1942 making him this June . John born 1940 he would have been 82 ..George born 1943 he would be 78 and Ringo born July 1940 ..So none of the Beatles would be 84 dead or alive
It’s great seeing Paul and Ringo together!
Ringo’s treatment by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was mirrored by that of his friend Todd Rundgren. The HOF sometimes needs to be EMBARRASSED before they let someone in. Paul’s actions to get Ringo in speak volumes about the induction process. Only the “Cool Kids” get in 🙄
yea just look at the terrible way they treated great bands like Yes, The Moody Blues and Rush
The RRHOF is an embarrassment.
Too many acts there that have nothing to do with Rock'N'Roll, music maybe but not Rock'N'Roll
Every song Ringo sang, wrote was a winner. Photograph was such a somber, punch.in.thr gut kinda tune and Ringo Shined with his unique style.
Ringo is a REAL musician. He loathes drum solos because so few drummers (besides him) execute them well. Most drummers are just showoffs but not Ringo. He puts the music FIRST!
Like just take those drum circles you see in the park or at the beach. They're just noise man. Noice that goes on for freaking HOURS! This is the image that Starr despises. He was the perfect fit for the greatest Rock band ever.
Every drummer I’ve known, learn’s a new lick & tries to incorporate it in every song , never questioning…….should I…..because I can. Ringo didn’t
& there for showed us restraint in playing for the song, that Mantra has never left me & served me well over the years.
Ringo is great but give me Keith Moon or John Bonham. Rings is nice & solid tho recording sessions with Paul a nightmare as he dictates or plays it himself but Ringo is easy going.
say "ringo" and i smile. it's that special happy sad magic surrounding ringo.
Ringo ⭐ should be President of the United States. Man, I could sleep at night 😴
Maybe prime minister of England
@@asherpruitt9860 either was Obama so
@@johnyvico Oh God. Are there still people so stoopid they're STILL doing the birther thing? Really?? Even Trump admitted it was a fantasy.
@@johnyvico Gimme a break!
11:26 Ringo actually played on Paul's ”Take It Away” back in 1982.
OMG how I love them!!!
Ringo is fantastic. Take Tomorrow never knows. He really carries that song.
Totally amazing that Paul McCartney didn't get inducted in the R&R Hall of Fame until 5 YEARS after John Lennon.... he should have been the first one.
John was first because the owner of hall had a crush for John the same Rolling Stones owner that cultivated the Bs that Paul music blah blah
Ringo Starr is so cute in the sense that he isn't the best singer buy he seems to have fun ! He seems like he's a good guy seems happy . I'm glad his illness are done..i really like Ringo
The studio techs who themselves worked tirelessly on Beatles records said Ringo worked harder than anyone else in the band. He was often the first there and last to leave.
He was also the one-take wonder. He was unbelievably solid and reliable.
I know that feeling, Just like Ringo, I would see certain things and want to take pics of them.
Yeah, Ringo is lovable, that’s for sure and he just keeps on.
Yea...so loveable he goes off if you ask him for an autograph! Ol drunk
Ringo is my favorite Beatle, I grew up with him, Carlin, and Baldwin narrating Thomas the Tank Engine and through that I discovered the Beatles
He’s super down to earth, sweet, funny, a fantastic drummer, and has super underrated music albums with my favorite being Time Takes Time
Paul and ringo definitely were the complement to John and George. John and George were hippies and experimental. Ringo and Paul were more down to earth.
@Gabe W every who've ever listened to the Ram album knows that. Talking about experimental. :)
@ (☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞ both great albums!
Paul can be experimental when he wants to..
@Sunday Girl don't worry, I listen to all his music 😉😊
@G Walker Right? It’s amazing how many people refuse to acknowledge this.
If you are ever sad just listen to Beatles bloopers. It’s hard to get me to laugh at anything even when I’m in my best mood but those are top notch comedy
Paul, always & forever! ❤️❤️❤️
I was obsessed by Ringo after I watched Yellow Submarine cartoon when i was 4, 20 years ago! I wouldn’t have know the beatles if it wasnt for my dad’s listening their songs all the time
The world is already feels foreign after the passing of Prince, Bowie and Eddie Van Halen recently. But when Paul and Ringo go, it’ll feel like a different existence all together.
its always weird seeing these videos from years ago remastered in hd and 4k. I remember the early 00's tube tv's. Something about seeing history through a tube tv sorta made it all seem like it was magic. Now i see it all like i'm there. I'll never get used to it.
Paul is my favorite Beatle always!❤️
I love them all but Macca has my heart!
Paul and Ringo are the most incredible performer
11:25 | Paul and Ringo didn't work together since 1997 ('Beautiful Night').
In 1982 they played in 'Take It Away' and also in 1984 they were together for _Give My Regards To Broad Street_ , as musicians and actors.
Paul has played on a number of Ringo’s albums.
@@cehghanzi6477 Yup. Paul and Linda sang backing vocals on Your're Sixteen in 1973 (which he doesn't sing now, what with it being age inappropriate)
It's lovely that after all these years they still get on so well
"People, when they´re younger, never realize the pleasure treasure life´s got. But as they grew older, they realize a lot". Lambert-Hendricks and Ross.
@Sunday Girl you mean George and William.
Love them both❤️ in fact I loved them all ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I mean, not every drummer can work it out with Paul and the other two, Ringo is truly a gift
My favourite Beatle is ranked as follows: (1) Si Paul McCartney, (2) Sir Ringo Starr, (3) George Harrison. There are only 2 Bass Players for me in this world. Sir Paul McCartney (Beatles) and (2) Randy Meisner (The Eagles). There is no other Bassist who can hold a candle to them. I was privileged to see the Beatles perform at Festival Hall Melbourne in 1964. We were four rows back from the stage and I could not hear a bloody thing. The girls were going mental. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
How do you rank William ?
Very well done and touching tribute
this video and their relationship is so pure
Ringo was and still is my favorite Beatle
i like these videos. In my later 60s, i'm well versed in the 'troubles' the Beatles had with each other. It's a bit of a switch to hear a lot of positive stuff for a change, and i've noticed that these Grunge videos seem to tilt that way - but that's ok.
