From 13, I wanted to play drums. I wanted to play with good people and I'm still doing it. I still love it so that's why I do it.

Roy Orbison was the only act that The Beatles didn't want to follow.

And in a marriage you can't TRY and be married. You're married or you're not married... as far as I'm concerned.

I've never been able to sit round on my own and play drums, practice in the back room, never been able to. I've always played with other musicians. It's how I play, there's no joy for me in playing on my own, bashing away. I need a bass, a piano, guitar, whatever, and then I can play.

I used to wear different rings when I first got called Ringo in about 19, about, umm, '59 I got called Ringo.
