“love pointing out to people that there is only one Beatles song which includes a drum solo, and that it isn’t Ringo playing it.”
Urban myth . It was Ringo playing on THE END .
Was he a genius?I just know that some beetles songs are now 50 years old and we still sing them.Whatever they had,it was magic and will probably never happen again.
One thing that surprised me was that Paul played the solo on Taxman.....He drummed on The Ballad of John and Yoko.
