He came up with 300 perfect drum parts for the most important rock band of all time. I will never tolerate Ringo slander.

[jasonremy]

Ringo is the perfect example of how to be intricate without being busy.

[s_kavan]

When I was younger I thought Ringo wasn't anything special but the older I get the more I realize how amazing and timeless his playing was

[stereofidelic]

You either love Ringo or you don't understand him. Now about time you had him on the show!

[AndyMangele]

What I like about Ringo (and other drummers with a similar mindset) is that he always served the song,
but never his own ego.
That's the way it should be in music.

[GingerGM]

37 year old new drummer here. Just want to let you guys know how important your content is! Thank you!

[mhinck]

Ringo epitomizes Debussy's quote - “Music is the silence between the notes”.

[SuperPaddyMac]

Ringo’s drumming on “A Day In The Life” is superb. But one could go on and on. Glad you did this.

[MattTee]

Ringo talking about his cross-dominance is what finally made me realize after decades of drumming where my "limitations" came from. I had never considered the fact that I was left handed, but did a lot of other things right-handed as a factor.

[aussiedownunder]

How blessed was ME! Seeing the Beatles Live in 1964!! Sydney

[silvertongues]

It’s all about his feel, its great to see so many modern drummers recognise Ringo’s greatness.

[RobertT]

About a year ago, I decided to listen through the majority of The Beatles' discography in order. Mainly because I'm English. Certainly it was a nice change of pace from my primarily rock and metal listening habits. I found myself feeling happier, as if I was living in a time I've never experienced.

[terryriley]

George said he was trying to explain the different time signatures of ‘Here Comes the Sun’ to Ringo and Ringo just wasn’t getting it so Ringo said can you just play it and George played it and Ringo said ‘Okay got it’. That was Ringo.

[tesstikles]

Ringo service the songs extremely well, he didn't overplayed when he didn't need to.

[tdz]

Lifelong guitar player here and in absolute awe of the drumming genius of Ringo. He played to and for the song, creating his own unique and signature parts that, without them, these songs would not be what they are.

[tylerbailey]

If you make a conscious effort to play like Ringo Starr any producer in the world will love you

[bbhrdzaz]

The beat for Ticket To Ride is so iconic, and seemingly simple. yet the last beat is just spaced enough to add that needed dimension.

[larrynguyen]

I think what I enjoy most about Ringo's playing is how elegant and measured it feels — everything feels thoughtful and perfectly integrated. It's always playing through the music and not over or under it.

[diegopeart]

As a Beatles tribute band drummer, this is always very valuable to watch. Thanks for the wealth of information on Ringo's drumming.

[cfusilier]

Awesome. I’d like to see Rain, broken down for us. This is one of Ringo’s favorite Beatles songs.
