I've been a drummer since I was five years old... Been in some great bands through the years and played and listened to it all. But I always come back to what I was raised on--- The Beatles, The Greatest.
What's your favorite Beatles song?
I have to go with "I'll Get You" (Early Period)
"She Said, She Said" (Middle Period)
"Helter Skelter" (Late Period)
Ringo Starr is the greatest rock drummer of all time, and Paul McCartney will go down as the greatest song writer of the 20th century... discuss.

Hide Your Love Away, from the soundtrack of HELP ....
But grew up on the Beatles myself .. the stuff towards the end was not as good as in the beginning I think

Can't say Ringo is the best rock drummer sorry guy ... Has to be Neil Peart from Rush ...

BLACKBIRD IS A GREAT SONG...ALWAYS HAVE LOVED IT...

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

I was waiting for this one, and not looking to fight...
Neil Peart is an amazing technical drummer. Ridiculous drum solos and all. But most drummers agree that Peart totally overplays on every Rush song. He completley takes away from the rest of the song by throwing in unnecessary overblown drum fills in totally out of place places.
Ringo Starr had "Feel". He played what the song called for. And some of his drum lines are totally unimitable (check out "She Said, She Said"). He had an amazing groove. Phil Collins called it Ringo's "drag". He basically invented an approach to drumming. He couldn't carry Pearts sticks to a drummer solo-a-thon, but if I were starting a rock band--- give me Ringo.

"Scrambled Eggs" is the original title for "Yesterday". Motley Crue did arguably the worst cover of "Helter Skelter" next to U2's horrible cover of the song. Check out the original...
