Episode Details

Ringo Starr’s story is far deeper than most people realize. Before becoming one of the most famous musicians in history with The Beatles, he survived poverty, serious illness, and multiple brushes with death as a child growing up in Liverpool.

This episode of Booked On Rock features an interview with author Tom Doyle, author of Ringo: A Fab Life. We explore Starr’s remarkable journey from a difficult childhood through the madness of Beatlemania, his evolution as a drummer and songwriter, his solo career, personal struggles, friendships, and the lasting impact he continues to have on music and pop culture.

From peace and love to perseverance and survival, this is the incredible story of the Beatle who became one of rock’s most beloved figures.
