Legends of Rock & Roll - Ringo Starr (Before, During & After the Beatles) - Paperback

by James Hoag (Author)

This is, like the others, a mini-biography of one the greatest performers in the music world. This is the fourth of a series within a series covering the four members of, arguably, the greatest group in music history, The Beatles. This report concentrates on Ringo Starr. This book is not about the Beatles. While I know that you can't write about Ringo Starr without considering the Beatles, the emphasis of this book is not the group, but instead, the life and music of Ringo as an individual and as a solo performer. In this particular volume, like before, I will discuss Ringo's early life and his joining up with three other lads to create what is probably the greatest rock and roll group in the history of the world. Come with me for a walk down memory lane as I review the life of Ringo Starr, and especially, the music that he produced. We'll visit each of his hits and find out how they came to be written or how they were recorded; and discuss any trivia that might be associated with the music. This book is about the man but even more importantly, it's about the music. This series is my way of honoring the people that have brought so much joy to our lives over the years.It is an unauthorized fan tribute.
