Not only that, but he could also play extremely subtle and quiet drums. Most people who know little about drums think that Ringo is one of those lousy loud simple players, but he isn’t. He mostly played loud so he could actually get the sound over around 50,000 fans screaming. In the studio, it was a different story. He could play so quiet that you would have to rewind it 20 times to tell what and where it was.

Ringo Starr is a left handed man and he did an interview where he said “My mother did not want to buy a left handed kit, so I learned the wrong way round on the set.” I have even seen him with a guitar the wrong way, too.

[@18andlikeit]

@@hewgrebe4771 there's really no such thing as a "left handed kit" you can set the drums up any way you want. Just as easy to set them up either way, it's just how you place the drums/cymbals. I think Ringo set them up right handed simply because that's how all the other drummers set them up, so he learned it that way. It turned out to be almost a good thing, being left handed on a right handed kit is what gave him a unique sound with some of his drum fills as he had to lead with his left hand on a right handed kit. I guess the only thing that he would have had to change is the rack tom holder on the bass drum to put the tom on the other side, but he chose to leave it the way it was and play it right handed. He could have also just used another snare stand to place the rack tom on the other side but he didn't.

I’m glad you posted this because it shows that even though Bernard Purdie is a great drummer, his remark that he redid Ringo parts is sad. It’s completely untrue with no valid backing. I’m not sure why he ever said it but it’s up there with the great lies of all time

@C. Doom Schneider Thomas was not in a band the so not worth mentioning.

[@frankspikes4867]

He was the best fit for the Beatles. He fit thier sound spot on. I don't think ginger Baker would fit thier music. Neither would John Bonham. Mich Mitchell wouldn't fit either. Ringo played it straight. He played just what the music called for.

[@giancarlosantiago5385]

I saw ringo live in 2015 & it's definitely one of the highlights in my life.. I never thought i'd get to see one of the fab four.. EVER

[@doninmichigan]

I was seven years old that night, glued to the tv watching the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show. Ringo was rocking the beat with a boyish enthusiasm and a masterful swing, it made you feel alive with an excitement you never felt before.

[@M5guitar1]

I love his swishing hit-hat...I never appreciated it until I learned to play the drums. He's the greatest! Plus he's just cool. John knew that from the start.

I'm 53 ys old , 40 ys of them a Beatles fanatic and my favourite Beatle was always Ringo . Why ?! Because he doesn ' t play the drums,, He simply plays the song . And that is a talented artist. Bless you Sir .

[@jeffringer8361]

Moustafa El Haguine well said. Things like how he played on Ticket to Ride. What an inventive and stylish approach.

[@manuelmontoya1142]

3:12 is priceless. It happens many times when you play live music and it tells a lot of the good vibe among these lads! Thanks for this treasure of footage.

[@lewstone1934]

Ringo layed down some unique drum hooks as well as being a very tight beat machine. My favourite being the floor Tom Tom roll at the start of "She Loves You"

[@watchmanonthewall14]

It's been said that most great drummers play the drums, whereas, Ringo plays the SONGS. He does what it takes to make the whole thing work well.

[@michaelradzicki2004]

Never misses a beat. Always perfect time. Metronomes using a Ringo to keep the beat.

[@37Dionysos]

Don't miss Ringo's drumming when he sings "Boys" on the Hollywood Bowl live album, just incredible.

[@worlds1ep3enthusiast92]

Hell of a vocal performance too

[@loungejay8555]

I'll defend Ringo to my dying day, he was a great drummer.

[@patbrennan6572]

richard isn't just a drummer, he's a percusionist as well.

[@TheJayson8899]

[@chrishodgson1815]

For many many years Ringo was an underrated drummer, even derided in some quarters, so good that his unique talent is recognized now, he was the heartbeat of The Beatles.

[@josecossich1883]

Ringo a mega underrated drummer. One of my favorites!!

[@brandonuebel7486]

3:40 RIP Ringo's drums

[@zeropointnineninenine4951]

Say what you will, but rock drummers everywhere would still be proverbial cavemen if not for this legend.

[@billkohler6292]

Love Ringo, he's the best and was so right to be The Beatles Drummer.

[@deanhultberg41]

Thanks for exclusive shots of Ringo working, he really has the taste and the drum stick control to serve the song, I love his charisma. Peace and Love and laughter to you Ringo.

[@agimagyar5370]

3:10 can he get any cuter?

[@elizzievb]

Nope! Nothing ever cuter than Ringo! ❤️❤️

[@stonedsoulpicnic]

✨Ringo is the happiest drummer in this world✨

[@tonycuthbertson9201]

Ringo is a real drummer plays for the music not for himself no flash no tricks no over drumming just straight playing not many drummers do this today its a talent and bands love it

[@briandimuzio7778]

I've been playing drums for over 40 years now. To me Ringo is a great drummer. He plays a lot of 32sec beat to many songs including Help. Not easy to do! He really kicks ass on Long Tall Sally towards the end of song. Great job Ringo!!

[@danieljaime5862]

Ringo really the Tim Duncan of drumming. He did what had to do for the song and he did it well yet people question his greatness for not being overly technical

[@chadbutros3935]

His drumming on "A Day in the Life" shows how capable he was technically. Lots of busy fills all perfectly placed to add depth and yet still let the music breathe.

[@davidt3390]

Richard Starkey: a PROFESSIONAL musician. Dude was interpreting original songs. Made at LEAST as important as the significancy we ascribe to lead guitarists. Everybody plays his licks, but he never played anybofy else's on an original Beatles composition.

[@hewgrebe4771]

David T I agree. Wrote songs, cut his hair and had his Ringo Starr Time going on his bass drum, too. Had to have been awesome.

[@kathrynschimpf8957]

Plus Ringo did not like drum Solo's! He had no reason to show off cause he was a Member of the BEATLES! Get it?

[@davidt3390]

Yeah, good stuff, folks. Glad y'all could decipher what I was saying despite all the typos. Sir Richard remains a gem.

[@stevenroberts5741]

You have to remember as well, that Ringo himself as frequently stated that it live performances due to the level of screams that all he could mostly do was hold down the back beat, as anything other than that would get drowned out.

[@CaneFu]

Ringo is so legendary he will outlive us all.

[@fr8466]

I again realized that the secret of Beatles sound is Ringo's drumming and of course Paul's base as well. The very best Rhythm Section in Rock'n Roll.

[@darrelltiencken2194]

Ringo was the perfect Beatle drummer...a real team player,made everyone around him better!

[@youngchool]

If the Beatles were sushi rice: John was the vinegar, Paul was the sugar, George was the salt, Ringo was the rice. Love him! He provided tasty and steady BEAT to the BEATles. I am in a band and someone like Ringo is the one most appreciated by the band members themselves.

[@no1u521]

[@maryhirsch8044]

I've been with the Beatles since they began but I never saw Ringo on the drums that much. I happen to stumble onto this video and MAN, Ringo is AWESOME! What a talent! Thank you for posting this!

[@plootyluvsturtle9843]

Everything he played always complimented the songs perfectly. I mean who else could drum on A Day In The Life and STILL make it better

[@therealmaddieacid]

I always love how happy Ringo is when he's drumming :)

[@OsagieGuobadia]

The way, Ringo performs his drums makes it swing like a swish-washer. Impressive! : )

[@Michael-xw4er]

Ringo laying it down with enthusiasm and energy and just playing for the song. A template for all drummers really!
