Unlocking Ringo Starr's Legendary Drumming: An In-depth Analysis Of His Life, Beats, And Style

Ringo Starr drumming - Ringo's drumming is analysed by Gary Astridge, who has been working for and with Ringo Starr for many years has been privileged to spend many hours over the last few years getting to know his idol!

From curating Ringo's drumkits to working with Ringo, Gary has an in-depth knowledge of Ringo Starr like no other. As a drummer himself, he has not only analysed Ringo's drumming style, but interviewed Ringo for a new book.

Ringo Starr: Beats and Threads is an authorised biography of Ringo by Gary Astridge, which has come from hours of interviewing Ringo with no topics off the agenda. Through these interviews, Gary has put together an incredible book, which not only features the history of Ringo's kits, but Ringo Starr from childhood through The Beatles.

That features the Beats. But the Threads? Ringo is a dedicated follower of fashion and he has kept all of his suits, shirts, boots etc and he can still fit into them!
