When was Ringo Starr born and when did he die?

What did Ringo Starr play on the first Beatles single?
Asked by Wiki User
Tambourine on "Love Me Do", and maracas on "PS I Love You".
Although Ringo was officially a member (paid a salary at first) when "Love Me Do" was recorded, George Martin had already brought in a session musician to play drums after Pete Best was sacked. Martin hadn't heard Ringo play so he decided to use his own drummer as he knew his ability.
Starr played percussion for the first takes. He then got to play drums on a second version of "Love Me Do". This version was their first single, but the master tape was lost before their first album was issued, so it was replaced with the first version.
Ringo later covered "Love Me Do" on his solo album Vertical Man.
What Beatles songs did Ringo sing lead?

Is Ringo Starr half Jewish?
Asked by Wiki User
From what I could gather by reading the relevant source-material, the answer is no. She is "half Jewish," but the "half" is on her father's side, not her mother's side. Torah-law states that one's mother is the deciding factor. One with a Jewish father is not considered Jewish or half-Jewish. For further inquiry, see the attached Related Links.
Answer:
Sylvester Stallone's maternal grandfather was Jewish. Sylvester's other grandparents were not Jewish. Sylvester was raised Catholic and remains Catholic.
Did Ringo Starr sing Yellow Submarine?
Asked by Wiki User
It's credited as Lennon/McCartney, as nearly all Beatles songs were, but both of them have stated in interviews that it was almost entirely Paul's work with a small bit of help from Lennon (Lennon also said that Donovan contributed a bit, in particular the "sky of blue and sea of green" lyric).
If you mean the film... well, he helped write the songs. The actual plot, such as it was, was largely a result of trying to come up with a way to tie a bunch of originally unrelated Beatles songs together (along with a few written specifically for the movie), and I can't find any indications that McCartney had any particular input into the process.
