So this is America. They must be out of their minds.
Ringo Starr

I'm always good for starting a bit of a tune and the first verse, but after that I just can never go anywhere. It takes me years, that's why I'm so slow.

People in Liverpool don't move very far, you know.

I used to wear different rings when I first got called Ringo in about 19, about, umm, '59 I got called Ringo.

In 1989 I sort of got back into the music business and one of the reasons I got back in is [that] I put the first All Stars band together. It's actually progressed from that every other year, or every two years, I've put that together...more and more realizing that's what I do.

Believe me, I wish this song was yours instead of mine.

I've always felt that a space is as good as a fill.
Ringo Starr

I know when I feel good when I play. There's a closeness with musicians you only get from playing live, even in the studio it's still playing live. For me, it's what expands my soul.

I met The Beatles while we were playing in Germany. We'd seen them in Liverpool, but they were a nothing little band then, just putting it together. In fact, they weren't really a band at all.
Ringo Starr
Image
I don't like talking. It's how I'm built. Some people gab all day and some play it smogo. I don't mind talking or smiling, it's just I don't do it very much. I haven't got a smiling face or a talking mouth.

The point is it is amazing that the generations have joined in the Beatle madness and love the music. Who knew?
Ringo Starr
Image
I feel as though that was someone else playing. I was possessed!
Ringo Starr
Image
I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage.

I don't particularly like messages, because everybody takes whatever they take from whatever.
