McCartney was such a good drummer that it's arguable that Ringo really
wasn't the best drummer in the Beatles.


I'm told that technically, Pete Best was the better drummer, he just
didn't fit with the other members.

Technically Ringo has an unusual style - he’s left handed but plays a
right-handed drum kit so he doesn’t necessarily play the same drum patterns
as other people.
