Ringo is a great person, and I think a great drummer. I think he is underrated a lot of times because he had such huge powerhouse artists around him. I also think Ringo was more of a team player unlike the other 3 Beatles. Some of his solo stuff since the Beatles is forgettable but some of it is REALLY good. I don't think the Beatles could have been the Beatles without Ringo, it is the some of the whole that makes something what it is. The Beatles wouldn't be what they were no matter if Carmine Appice or any other great drummer was there rather than Ringo, his input and personality also comes through in all of there performances. I can also say I think Ringo is happy with how he is rated and how he will be remembered. I think hes just happy to have had the chance to be... To me thats a sign of a greta person.
