Ringo Starr Remembers Being Asked to Join the Beatles

Want to know what's going on with Howard Stern in the future?

[hohaia]

Ringo was smart. He knew there was something going on with the Beatles.

People dump on Ringo, but he's got that quirky little signature beat he does - I don't think they really would have been the same band without him. Pete was ok-ish.. but really Ringo was the better choice.

Ringo Starr, 78 and still going strong! 😁✌️✌️

“I just loved John, George and Paul.” 💕 0:32

One thing seems certain about Ringo. He seems totally real and believable. He seems to be an honest soul.

[deezynar]

The guy has been sincere his whole life. And going back to the earliest Beatle's interviews, he has shown an amazingly quick wit, and a sharp sense of humor which indicates intelligence far beyond what many unobservant people have assumed about him. All four were really bright individuals.

You love the Beatles and we love you!!!

The feeling was mutual. I remember hearing Paul talk about one of the early shows where Ringo hadn't officially joined yet (sitting in) and Paul would look over to George and John and just sort of nod "this is the sound we want, this is what we want to be" was the mutual feeling. They wanted him in the group as bad as he wanted to be in it.

I have been a Beatles and therefore a Ringo fan since the Sullivan show appearance. From all that I have seen and read about Ringo I have come to believe that he is a very good person. A nice guy who was always respected by everyone that knew him. No one has anything bad to say about him. That says a lot about someone. Especially in his business.

This just makes me smile from ear to ear. Gotta love Ringo - such a happy vibe. He really nailed the new beat of a generation. Best thing that ever happened to the Beatles - and Brian was right ON it, luring Ringo away, waking him up to come to their gigs. Another great Howard Stern interview! THANKS HOWARD!

He's such a loveable "child" and his narrations are always funny and catching...

[danielshubeck]

Stern is a great conversationalist!! Like the way he asked questions and allowed Ringo to talk and explain everything

[TheDreamingJune]

Ringo has one of the most soothing speaking voices. Could listen to him for hours.

[jedicomedy]

Ringo Starr is in my opinion the coolest beatle.

[mojopin]

I have to say i am impressed with Howard Stern as a Brit the way he interviews people is very relaxed almost like a normal conversation between two friends, i think he is very clever. He has created an atmosphere where celebs forget they are celebs for a moment and talk to him honestly...

Howard: "I had two Beatles on my show, Dad, guess I'm not such a moron anymore, huh?"

[jv-eptc]

Howard spoke from the heart at the end and thanked Ringo for being part of the Beatles and for the existence of the Beatles, really. He referred to his difficult times growing up, the joy of Sgt Pepper and that, like so many of us, they saved our lives. I was driving while listening and burst into tears. Howard nailed it, the emotion and the gratitude.

[edgardobravo]

They woudn't have been so great without Ringo. 'cause he's the greatest. Long live Ringo!

[idratherfly]

I noticed Howard interrupts all other guests when they are talking but when Ringo or Paul is on his show they will cut him off and Howard stops talking, Much respect!
