Ringo Starr is by far one of the most influential Drummers in History. He was the Drummer for none other that The Beatles.
VIDEO: Ringo’s Influence in Drummers
The influence of Ringo Starr with the Beatles is the first place to look. No band in history has matched their impact, and Ringo was a pivotal part in their success and originality with his own special drum parts—sounds, patterns, or embellishments that are unique to that individual piece. He is known as the king of creative, feel-good pop timekeeping.
Ringo used Ludwig Super Classic Drums
Drum sizes: 9″ x 13″ Tom, 16″ x 16″ Floor Tom, 14″ x 22″ Bass Drum, 5.5″ x 14″ Snare Drum
Which featured:
Unique oyster black pearl swirl pattern
Keystone badges
3-ply mahogany/poplar/mahogany shells with white painted interiors
Baseball bat tone controllers with red or white felt tone control pads
Threaded mount casing with wing-bolt (P-1672)
16.5” floor tom legs with knurled stems
Fold out bass drum spurs with knurled stems (P-1305)

Ringo to me is a Rock n Roll Icon. I trully enjoy his work in Abbey Road and The White Album. He is one my main inspirations to this day, after all I still play with his Ludwig replica drum set.

I’m not the biggest fan of The Beatles, but I do acknowledge how great they are. Reading a blog about the drummer is always fun, because I used to be interested in the drums. That was long ago though. It’s really cool to see someone to be so inspired to play an instrument.
