English songwriter, musician, drummer from the Beatles, actor Ringo Starr was born on July 7, 1940 in Liverpool. He was very painful as a child. So, after graduating from primary school, he spent a whole year in the hospital - treated peritonitis. Then about 2 years he missed training because of pleurisy. This was the reason Ringo Starr never graduated from school. At the age of 15, he already got a job: on a railway ferry as a steward. Like most of his peers, he became interested in a new direction in American music. He was also attracted by the scene.
In August 1962, he joined the Beatles. He was asked to play the drum on almost every song. Sometimes Ringo Starr wrote songs for the band, either by himself or in collaboration. He performed songs very rarely, but he got leading roles in the paintings dedicated to the group, for example.
The Beatles: Help me. . According to most, Ringo had an excellent acting gift. Most likely, therefore, after the collapse of the famous group, he was repeatedly offered roles in films, which he, of course, agreed to. Okay, he starred in
Listomania .
" Let it be so. . By the way, he left the band in 1968, having quarreled with Paul McCartney (who called him an ordinary primitive drummer). He then devoted his career to filming and advertising.
In addition, Ringo Starr prepared material for a solo album. However, this collection of songs was very poorly appreciated by critics, in contrast to the debuts of other members of the disbanded group. In 1983, both British and American companies refused to record his album. Ringo had to release his CD in Brazil, Canada and Germany. However, his work did not find fans, so over time all recording companies ceased to cooperate with him. Such a failure led to the fact that Ringo Starr fell to the bottom. Only in 1989 did he manage to get up and devote himself to songs again.
