Did John Lennon really say Ringo “Wasn’t Even The Best Drummer In The Beatles”?

Google that complete question to read a very interesting update. Published on Radio X.

@Picklebobble2 and music is still loved 60+ yrs later

@SW-User didn't read yet but can't change past. If he wasn't what was wanted give back the money they made together. Not a great fan of lennon anyway

@SW-User read it. Never heard the joke anyway.

The article said - and rightly so! - Ringo was a much copied and admired drummer. So much for his being crap, eh?

@SW-User yup. But may people do look down on him. I like him best though

@SW-User it was a dumb question from a dumb reporter to which Lennon replied
He's not even the best drummer in the Beatles
.
Search YouTube you'll find it.

Many modern day drummers rate Ringo because he often sets his kit up for a right handed player and then plays left hand dominant.
Hard to do and play successfully.
But it does give you the ability to play doubles and triples at the lower end of the musical scale.
