| 6/24/2008 11:03:33 AM |
 When I think about the renowned British rock band The Beatles, I automatically envision John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Even George Harrison springs to mind before Beatles drummer Ringo Starr. To be fair, Ringo Starr probably deserves far more recognition than he commonly receives. As the drummer in The Beatles, Starr initiated a fresh style of rhythm in pop music. If you... Read More |

Paul McCartney is Still Rocking |

That’s why the latest news about him returning to his hometown, Liverpool, to play a show at... Read More with Video |
