Happy New Year, and welcome to a new video on the youtube channel.
On 3rd February, Ringo’s drum curator Gary Astridge and drummer Rob Brian are starting a new roadshow, looking at Ringo’s drumming.
I interviewed Gary and Rob, and we discussed some of what will be in the roadshow (uk only) and what makes Ringo such a great drummer.
Enjoy the discussion below.

Part of an interview with Vince Eager, a skiffle fan who saw Lonnie Donegan on his first skiffle show performance, and then became his good friend and the last person to perform with Lonnie.
Hope you enjoy the interview.

Latest appearance of The Quarrymen, with me on bass guitar, and John Duff Lowe’s son Henry on keyboard.
Great fun, at the main Arena in Liverpool in front of 2000 fans. We were there to support The Mersey Beatles, a fantastic tribute band.
Enjoy.
In my latest video, the most controversial moment in Beatles history was when Pete Best was told he was being replaced by Ringo Starr.
With so many myths out there, what did the other Beatles say about Pete? Did they just say he was a lousy drummer? No!
Discover what they really said!
Episode 9 – The Quarrymen in Conversation with Billy Bragg. Rod Davis and Colin Hanton talk about The Quarrymen, their stories, John meeting Paul and making the first record in 1958, plus so much more!
I am playing with the Quarrymen in Bristol on 22nd July, and so the organisers interviewed me about the story of the Quarrymen.
Watch below
It is amazing that, not only did John and Paul only meet through Ivan Vaughan, their only connection, but their friend Geoff Rhind took a photo, and another friend, Bob Molyneux, recorded them that evening.
This is the audio that survived.
Enjoy!

I first met the Quarrymen in 2004 when they came to play at my invitation at Dovedale Primary School. (I make a brief appearance!)
This one is rare because it is a film with Eric Griffiths in, who sadly died in 2005. He introduces the group and there are 2 songs too.
Enjoy!
In Part 2 of the look back at 6th June 1962, watch and listen to Ken Townsend, Norman Smith and George Martin on what really happened that day – and what he said to Brian Epstein.
Enjoy!
