Members AlamoJoe Posted January 4, 2019 Members Share Posted January 4, 2019 Yassah! Mucho for love for Sir Richard Starkey. Dude is lookin’ good for 78 and 1/2 yrs. He was the perfect drummer for The Beatles. His drumming always served the songs. Didn't have a hard on for solos or stepping out. Only put his flourishes in where they were needed...And from what I've been able to tell...Kept perfect time. I mean, I love drummers like Moonie and Peart. The raw energy and abject terror that Moonie played with. The top drawer and melodic talents of Peart.....But Ringo figured out early on what his job was in that band, just like Charlie Watts did. Keep the beat, move the songs along, keep a floor under the other guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Luke17 Posted January 4, 2019 Members Share Posted January 4, 2019 I am going to heartily and unequivocally agree with your observation(s) regarding Ringo, Peart, Moonie and ‘Cholly’. One reason I won’t disagree with you, (to bring bring dear Joe Walsh back into the mix) is in his Immortal words and live solo album; ‘You Can’t Argue with a Sick Mind’ ✌🏻😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members E-money Posted January 4, 2019 Members Share Posted January 4, 2019 Have you listened to any of his early ‘James Gang’ stuff? Only a little. Looks like Walsh is only on the first 3 albums; I'll have to check them out. Is any of the post-Walsh James Gang any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is any of the post-Walsh James Gang any good? I only listened/owned the Records featuring Joe Walsh. His chunky rhythmic guitar strum was a big influence on my own playing. BTW...Go Eagles this Sunday! hoping for a big WIN @ Soldier Field this Sunday.👍👍👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
