Re: Story about Ringo

Ringo is the man!

It's critics that demean his playing that I would not take seriously.

Plus he landed Barbara Bach for a wife... not too shabby!

"Plus he landed Barbara Bach for a wife... not too shabby!"

Being one of the Beatles he could have landed practically any eligible (and many ineligible) women anywhere. Ringo was a more than competent pop drummer who, with all the means to screw-up and leave this world early like many other rich celebrity musicians - didn't. I'm glad he and Paul are still with us. Amen.

Richard is a drummer who "swings", like Charlie. No, not flashy, but he does not miss a beat.

Richard who?

Richard Starkey aka Ringo Starr. Charlie, as in Watts from the Rolling Stones. Good call Lindisfarne.
