    Muddy and Roger?
    I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it

    Jason Bonham is a great drummer just like his Dad.
    yet Zak Starkey is  a far better drummer than his dad ever was

    Yet what has he written that's anywhere near as iconic or memorable as the drums on "Ticket To Ride", "Tomorrow Never Knows" or "Come Together"?  
    Did Ringo actually play those in the studio?  Not even the best drummer in the Beatles and all that.
    It was meant as a joke. Ringo came up with some iconic drum parts .. check out a documentary with Ringo ..




    Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

    Wilson Philips. Hold On is a classic.
    Can't sing, can't dance, can handle a guitar a little.

    Yes. There are three tracks in the Beatles catalogue (excluding a few bits on the Anthology albums) that have anyone else- Dear Prudence and Back In The USSR were recorded after Ringo quit the band during the White Album sessions, and The Ballad of John and Yoko was recorded while Ringo was filming The Magic Christian. Everything else is Ringo.

    Apparently (I think I read this in Revolution In The Head, which is a brilliant book if you like the Beatles) RIngo was the guy who never blew a take by making a mistake- always kept up with arrangement changes while they were working on songs in the studio, never played at the wrong tempo, even in odd time signatures and in unusual rhythms.

    Oh, and the "not even the best drummer in the Beatles" thing was a Jasper Carrott joke. Very Lennonesque in tone, but he never actually said it.

    Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.

  • I remember seeing two of Francis Rossi's sons in a band years ago, Little Egypt I think they were called. They were pretty decent but never made it much beyond support slots.
