Ringo wasn't a awful drummer , but Beatles songs were never that complicated to drum.

Reminds me of an excellent sketch on Smith & Jones some years back with a sound engineer. He was sitting at a mixing desk, and was showing what the buttons did.

"This...is a cymbal"

"CRASSSSSSSSSHHH!" (imagine that is a cymbal sound)

"This...is a cymbal played backwards!"

"SSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHARC!"

"This...is a cymbal played by Ringo Starr!"

"THUD!"

Reminds me of this:

"Was Ringo Starr the best drummer in the world?"

"He wasn't even the best drummer in the Beatles."
