Ringo was a very experienced drummer had played with Rory Storm and the Hurricanes previously and was left handed playing a right handed drum kit. The bass drum sound the Beatles developed was by their previous drummer Pete Best. It's hard to play some guitar parts in the Beatles songs that John plays as he learnt banjo chords originally when his mum taught him.

Ringo is an idiosyncratic drummer. He created a unique drum arrangement for each song. That’s actually rare, especially these days. And it was just perfect for that song. He was also left-handed playing a right-handed drum kit, so there is a cool natural slight lag in his attack, when he wants it. It sounds laid back when he wants, or he’ll be right on when the phrase demands it. His dedication to serving the song and not to showing off with flash is what makes him one of the best ever and a great model for young drummers to emulate. It’s also true of Charlie Watts of The Rolling Stones, who was already a hot, successful jazz drummer when he took the RS gig - and never left. It was always just what served the song. But the sheer variety in their music puts Ringo in a league of his own.

Absolutely true. 🤘 When I was about 7, around '80 or so -- possibly just after John's death - my dad gave me his vinyl copies of Meet the Beatles and Help! (the soundtrack version). I immediately fell in love with both albums, and then "borrowed" Dad's other pre- Sgt. Pepper LPs and Capitol comps. They indeed changed my life and made me a lifelong fan of music and discovering new sounds. When someone tells me they don't like the Beatles, it just doesn't compute with me. Looking forward to Peter Jackson's 'Get Back'!

People who say Ringo is a "terrible" drummer usually aren't drummers. Ringo was the perfect drummer for the Beatles. He always played to the song and could serve as another compositional element for the band. There are many Beatle songs that can be identified just by listening to the drum track alone. For decades pretty much any time that the various drummer magazines ("Modern Drummer", "Drumhead", etc.) would have a "best drummers of all time" poll, Ringo would usually finish in the top 20 (if not the top 10). Hey, drummers know...

Ringo always played parts that would benefit the song rather than trying to show off.

Totally support that philosophy. Listening out of context is fine, but not as educational to new Beatles listeners. And people who rank the Beatles albums are just weak in historical context and have an insecure need to classify, categorize and put the Beatles in a handy box set of bad, mediocre, good and excellent to satisfier their incessant need to organize, classify e rather than just enjoy the music. Many of these numbskulls don't even have a music degree. Often it's out of context of the era the Beatles came from and worked,. all based on musical preference, that ironically evolved FROM the Beatles music and era, as did their music evolve from the previous eras. there is no need to classify the Beatles, they are in a class by themselves or no one would be listening to them today.

The thing I've learned about the early Beatles is that George Harrison was influenced by a jazz guitarist, Wes Montgomery who liked to play octaves, ie a high E and the next octave down together, plucking them. You can hear this in Please, Please Me , There's A Place and From Me to You. John Lennon then plays harmonica over top of these. That's where the unique sound comes from.

As someone mentioned above, if you want to do their "last" album you'll probably want to do Abbey Road because that was their last recorded LP - their actual "last" album is technically Let It Be, but the music was recorded before Abbey Road and during a difficult period for the band (although many of the songs are still excellent); also it was produced by Phil Spector instead of George Martin, and with very little input from the group, which gave it a different feel.

35+ years ago when I first started listening to the Beatles, I just thought the songs were great. I was 12/13 at the time and I didn't look much past that. In the ensuing years, you realize a WHOLE lot of things that they did that were great. Vocal arrangements, basslines, songwriting, song choice, the covers they did were better than the original, drum fills, melodies, rhythms - you name it, they were great at it. Can't wait until you get into their more innovative works later on, but it's nice to watch someone listening to these for the first time. At some point, you throw up your arms and think that a great percentage of their songs are miracles. For "just a little band from Liverpool" (which is what they refer to themselves), they were as in touch with the cosmos as anyone, Beethoven, Coltrane, whoever you want to put in there.

Nonetheless, all the others had a great respect for his abilities. Ringo is left-handed and plays a right-handed kit. He had an odd timing as a result - worked though.

Ringo was a great drummer, and fitted perfectly with The Beatles music. My guess for the reason of this down-talking of Ringo being "not a good drummer" is that Ringo never broke out those endless drumsolo's that other drummers of those days 'HAD' to do. As a drummer he never took the spotlights, and that became an exception. (Btw; Charlie Watts of the Rolling Stones also stayed modest.) Drummers of the other famous bands all had to have their moment to shine. Overly affected 'artistic' drumsolo's that took the swing out of a good song, and were just showcases for the 'forgotten' band member in the back. At live concerts I always dreaded the moment that "the drumsolo" had to happen. I really liked that Ringo stayed a solid foundation and served the band very well.
@tubularap
2 жыл бұрын
@phillydisco - True. The down-talking of Ringo's quality was not from the 1960s but came later. Indeed after the other drummers soloed their egos to great hights and that became the 'feature' to judge drummers on, in hindsight Ringo's modest attitude may have affected the judgement of those that complained. This all is my own guess.

@phillydisco very good compare and contrast with Moon. Who probably my favourite band apart from, Sex Pistols and Public Image Limited. At 66, I'm still getting into Beatles more than I did when younger. Moon got Ringo's son, Zak, into drumming so he plays more Moon style. Who and Moon were primarily an angry young man's band reflecting both their personalities and their early audiences. Beatles appealed to girls first - from office workers taking lunch breaks in Cavern onwards. Beatles warmed up the girls and the boyfriends benefited! Ringo had played professionally in Butlins summer seasons so catered for all age dance halls including all the traditional steps for ballroom as well as rock 'n roll. Keith Richards once remarked about many bands able to rock but few could roll. Much as I love The Who, I'd have to concede that they are a, perhaps the prototypical, rock band without the roll

Your one of the few who recognize Lennon's voice for what it was. He finds a very strong attitude or character for each song in his solo parts.

McCartney and Harrison's voices would develop, but year one was the year of Lennon.

Ringo is a great drummer. He is in fact a very special one because first: he is lefthanded with a righthanded drumkit what makes his playing unusual - maybe that is the reason for some people to believe he would not play good; he just plays not according to common standards. And second: he is one of the very few drummers that write drumpatterns for each song so there is no song like the other in relation to the drum play. And last: he can keep the beat like few others.

Yeah, Gerry and the Pacemakers and the Dave Clark Five. Their supposed Rivals. And sure those groups had some hits and weren’t bad. But when you compare them side by side to the Beatles. Their music sounds simplistic and clunky. Whereas the Beatles sound modern and sophisticated even. Those other bands could not compete. They didn’t have the songs. Somehow the Beatles wrote brilliant songs and sang and harmonized better. It’s not even close. And they had an original sound and style. I Feel fine and Ticket to Ride are brilliant pop rock songs. The other groups had nothing even close. And the Beatles output was amazing. Album after Album. The others sputtered out after a couple of albums. They had no material. So the Beatles destroyed the competition and dominated their Era. Hands down! And fifty years later, their music is still popular. I don’t know anyone who cares about Gerry and the Pacemakers or The DC5. They have been forgotten. The Beatles are Forever!

FYI: Early on the Beatles would play covers of other bands and then wait to go on stage to play their set. Macca said he heard other groups play Long Tall Sally and he said we were going to do Long Tall Sally so now what are they going to do? The other groups already did it. So he realized that if they had their own original songs the others couldn’t copy them. And they wouldn’t repeat the same songs on stage. It was a tall order but they were able to write great original songs and that’s why we are still talking about them now. They are great! And they have an incredible catalog and Legacy!

Some of their early songs are covers of The Isley Brothers, Little Richard, Chuck Berry and other Black American Rhythm & Blues artists. They cut their teeth playing live and writing 8 days a week in Hamburg Germany and when they returned home they were a finely tuned machine. The early albums like this were written when they were writing songs to be reproduced live. Later it became something else completely; Art, but so much more as they all grew up and more experienced with the studio. Then along came George Martin and the rest is history. They were the single most driving musical force of The 20th Century and it continues into The 21st. BTW, Billy Joel has said in interviews that The Beatles were a huge influence on him. As a Bassist, I find Ringo to be a very fine drummer but I have heard others trash him. They have never listened to any of his parts isolated as a solo. Some of them are absolutely astounding. Search Beatles Michelle Ringo Isolated. It will blow your mind.

John always sang sharp, George always flat, and Paul usually sang on pitch. When they sang together in harmony their pitch differences also created an expansive chorus effect. Ringo always sang very flat, sometimes dystonic, and I can't think of any case where Ringo sang in harmony with the others or they with him. I believe that Ringo sang the lead on one song on each of their albums. Paul really understood counterpoint, which enhanced the harmonies and also allowed him to play the interesting bass phrases that you will enjoy over and over again as you progress through the albums. Paul also has a great sense of rhythm, which you can hear in those bass phrases. Paul played drums on one song that I know of: The Ballad of John and Yoko, apparently because Ringo wasn't in the studio at the time it was recorded.

In the 60's I did see live TV of thousands of screaming girts, what was that power and expression? They seemed quite sure of their bliss. Finally, Caroline -- thank you for your musical education, and expression. I understand it more. Now I get to revisit that innocent time.

There is a REASON that The Beatles are the world's best band. Harmonies,solid musicanship and fantastic melodies and great lyrics. Other bands are good,even great but none are at this level.

Love your video. In reference to Ringo’s drumming: simply put, they wouldn’t have been the Beatles without him. Ringo plays uniquely to each the song. Check out Sina’s video, What makes Ringo a Great Drummer.

Well done Caroline - over 100,000 views! Bet you never thought you'd get that many views when you started reviewing the Beatles albums. Great series. Just watched your Rubber Soul first listen. Looks like you really liked Girl. Me too.

Paul's chugging bass lines caught your ear right away. I think we oldsters tended to take this for granted, like it was in most of the songs we listened to. But the Beatles really took it to a new level. When John gets to the bridge on "Anna," it just breaks me up.

The Beatles music was before there were cassettes! Cassette recorders didn't come out until like the late sixties or early 70s. Their songs were recorded on either LPs ( long playing records) or 45s. The 45s were what most teenagers bought and could afford. They were small records with a large hole in the middle. I still have a lot of them! They sold for like $79 cents or sometimes cheaper. The best thing about buying the Beatles single records was that you got two great songs on both sides. Most hit songs by other artists had an unknown song on the "flip side." But with the Beatles, you got 2 for the price of one! In the mid-sixties, we waited from week to week to hear what new song the Beatles just came out with on the radio! They just kept.coming and coming! 🎶

Twist and Shout was the last song recorded that day and John's vocal chords were in shreds accounting for the great rock effect for this song
