Ringo Starr | new EP, legacy & favorite thing about Paul McCartney 

Allison, you have this comfort but highly intellectual magic about you in that your perfect questions really made Ringo open up and reflect on his personal life in a way that I’ve never really seen from him before! This is the best Ringo interview in decades. After watching so many interviews with Ringo, it’s really obvious that the depth of his answers are a direct reflection of what he thinks of the interviewer and their questions. Stupid questions always get stupid answers from Ringo and this was a pure joy to watch!! You’re amazing!!

Most 84 year olds I know are either 6 foot under, or have a walker. this guy's incredible!

God bless Ringo...and Paul...and Allison!

The best interview with Ringo for a long time. Thank you for asking him intelligent questions and making it interesting! A really great interview

Possibly the most relaxed interview I’ve seen of Ringo in a long while. In addition, the questions were original and really good, not the same tired ones we’ve heard so many times. I’m looking forward to getting the new EP.

What a great interview. About time someone with a brain asks Ringo some great questions. Sadly Ringo has done so many repetitive interviews because the person asking the questions wasn't ready so it was the same answers to the same questions (Not Ringo's fault). Allison asked some great questions and rolled with his answers. She really listened to his answers and adapted to them. Brilliant!!!

I could listen to Ringo for hours! What an adorable human being! 🤩👍❤️

I love both Paul and Ringo !!

Allison, finally a perfect Ringo interview. Respect for doing your homework so well that it looked effortless. I cringe over the years at the terrible media interviewers with Ringo. They ask dumb uninformed questions. But you deserve all good things for doing your job very well. I'm very impressed at the quality of your work.

That's one of the more relaxed interviews I've seen Ringo give for a good while. Very nice.

Great interview. You look so happy to be there with Ringo. He’s such a great guy.

I just saw Ringo last fall at an autism benefit show & he was solid ! His guitarist is Steve Lukather from Toto who also played. He's such an unassuming guy. A real class act. Thanks for the interview Allison ! Great questions ✌️

Ringo Starr’s drumming on “It’s All Too Much” and “Only A Northern Song” from Yellow Submarine Soundtrack is/are truly astonishing work….My fav drummer of all time….May he live forever!

84 years young! My one and only drum hero 50 years later for me! We love you Ringo!

I'm a singer songwriter heavily influenced by the Beatles and wouldn't be one without the Beatles,it was the Beatles that made me pick up a guitar in the first place and next to my family and my God the Beatles have been the biggest influence on my life,thank you John,Paul,George and Ringo. Bob

Thanks Allison. This was great with my Sunday coffee. You really opened him up. I love ringo. I love the beatles. I’m 72 and never get tired of a great interview like this. You 2 really clicked. Awesome job!

Enjoyed every minute of it. What a legend and the interview was very well conducted with authenticy and true respect. Pure joy this!

I love ringo and Beatles for ever ❤

I just discovered you here and was immediately taken by your clear mind and your enthusiasm, Allison. Thank you so much for your great Interview with Ringo .. Best regards from Germany, Leipzig ... Peace and Love, Jan

Crooked Boy is my favourite Ringo release for quite some time, I love it, and this is also my favourite Ringo interview for quite some time. Such a lovely conversation, Thank You!! ✌❤✌

They said ringo couldn't sing Well I have most of his songs I love them Dam good under rated singer Thank you Ringo Frank Melbourne Australia

Well, I must say you look excellent for 84. Paul looks really good too. I’m glad you and Paul are good friends. I am 70 years old and I remember the Beatles has a 10 year old kid might as well say I grew up with you guys. Thank you all for the great music all those years. You were my favorite band of all time and you still are today. The Beatles were the best that ever was. I wish John and George were here with you guys. I sure miss them. May they rest in peace.👍👍❤️😎🎸🎼🎵🎶🎸 Thank you so much for all the great music music😁😀❤️😎🎸🎶

THANK YOU so much for watching. Tune in each week for a new conversation and PLEASE SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss a thing ❤‍🔥

First The Warning, and now Ringo!😁🎵 Allison, you're THE BEST! (I bow to you!)

Best Ringo interview I've seen! Thanks!!

Thank you Allison, had never seen your interviews but watched as a fan of Ringo. You did a great job, very impressed with the way you conducted yourself. Wish you and Ringo all the best ☺️ An interview like this deserves a lot more attention and praise than its received honestly.

I'm happy I watched your Special Q&A video premiere with Ringo Starr! I Loved it! Always the iconic musician with The Beatles & you name the rest! The first time I heard about The Beatles was back in 90s thanks to my Dad's old teal colored Nissan Quest van. Then I see him star as himself in The Simpsons. I appreciate what he did for us, Music, children, and many more. Peace & Love will always be a MUST! ☮️✌️ I'll always LOVE your Laughs, Allison. xD xD And thank you again for a Special Q&A episode!

Beautiful artist and human being, great interview, thank you! 🙏✌️🫶🌸⭐

Peace & Love & Allison. Take care of yourself.

Well done. Most of the times Ringo is interviewed as a drummer for the Beatles in the belief that is all he was, is, and will be because that made him. Delightful to see that someone recognizes that is only something he did for a time and not who he is. He lived before the Beatles and has continued to live for 45 years since, sharing the gift of Ringo with the world.

Nobodys nicer than Ringo. Great guy

As a diehard Beatles fan, I would love to have known more about what it was about the recording of Yer Blues that made it such a fond memory for Ringo. I love that track too. It is one of my favorite studio jams.

Ringo has been clean 35 years and it shows in his spirit. A genuine loving soul.

In the last video i saw with ringo i learned Paul was a workaholic and that was cool. Im excited to watch this one because Ringo wouldnt lie.

Richard Starkey is a great drummer and a lovely person. My first 45 single was A Hard Days Night! Great interview.

Ringo seems to look back at the film "Let It Be" harshly. I saw it for the 1st time on Disney + & loved it. Their performances were fantastic & brought tears of joy to my eyes. It was a very upbeat film for me @ 70 years old.

Thank goodness for Ringo and his three brothers. ✌️ ❤️ and 🥦

Son of a -- he was at amoeba and I missed it? Ugh. Ringo is one of 4-5 must-meets for me. My love for him is immeasurable. So jel of your sitting there with him.

Good interview with proper respect to the legend.

The absolute best interview. ,the conversation,the space picked for the interview, and the person doing the interview, bright , kind, and made me feel like I was there , a front role seat ,wow that was fun.

Truly, I really like him.

Dear Allison, what a legend - and I seldom saw him so relaxed. Great interview!

Aside from being one of the best drummers ever, and having an irresistible charm in his singing, his ability to delegate has been key to his consistently great albums, especially RINGO. I thought that when he mentions Linda Perry.

Ringo is the greatest!

Who, What , When, Where, & HOW? I just 'discovered' your channel Allison - Subscribed & will be tuning in from time to time; BTW: U seem so 'comfortable' w/the legend !!! Signed, 1 of millions of Beatles' fans...

Das ist mit Sicherheit Ringo.Die Stimme und die Gestik.Er sieht gut aus,in dem Alter.Er ist humorvoll und bodenständig.

Thats how to interview a starr!!

It may take some time to come down from that Peace Loving Cloud :) Glad you were able to sit down with the Legendary Ringo..., Also a guest suggestion, Paramore...Keep Rocking \m/

You can see Ringo really wanted to talk to you. Not just doing it by numbers promoting something. Good interview

I want to start a petition to get Ringo and the All Start Band to play the Superbowl. (if Ringo would like to play this venue)

H, i have never heard of this alison person, but a great job and a smart interview

Thank you Allison for bringing another drop of Ringo into my life. Love your approach and demeanor. :)

The Greatest. Want to know something about Ringo, ask Paul ✌🏼

Great interview ❤, thank you. An interview with Paul would be great!

Great interview. Love Ringo🩷

Ringo le bonheur Ce nom lui va bien toujours égale a lui meme ,bien dans ces baskets et une belle âme que je suis depuis plus de 50ans Je l'aime pr son intelligence et sa gentillesse, son humanité Ringo forever

IT is so nice that even older he is such a cool guy.

New sub, so impressed w/Allison. Intelligent, sincere, respectful. And she *listens* and *lets the guest talk*. Good job!

Ringo I always think of You with Love & Peace ✌✌and the friend of Cilla ❤💜

Great man Ringo, total music legend and good person

What would the world will be without Ringo. Always puts a smile on your face ❤😅

Un ragazzo ancora che gioca ❤

I'd highly recommend picking up a copy of " Twist and Shout " and listening to Ringo sing " Boys ". He totally nails that song.

That was an excellent interview with a legend!

Siempre joven este chabon , un capo

Love you, Ringo! Peace and Love and Broccoli!!

Good interview. Well done. Ringo more at ease talking about Beatles days is good thing.

Greetings ✨ from Florida 🐬 I was listening to an old interview last nite ✨ when Tom Snyder ✨ was interviewing Ringo ❤ Our Fav ❤ and We 💕 eat Broccoli 🥦 and Blueberries 🍇 daily Too 💕 Thank You ❤for Sharing this Gem 💎 of a Man ❤ Ringo 😊

Really well interviewed, thanks Allison, I’m a new subscriber.

Peace, Love, and Just For Men.

Yes, i’m going to invite to someone who literally changed the world to my podcast. Allison always with the best content ❤! I love you Ringo

Nice interview. But maybe a tight shot of the new Crooked Boy cover photo when she referenced it was in order...

Super interview! ✌& ❤ Ringo!

Great interview ❤

The sheer thrill of arriving in America that first time must have been overwhelming for those four young lads from comparatively dead-end world of Liverpool and the still-drab (but soon to be swinging) London. Yes, George had previously visited America, but to arrive as a band riding an initial burst of success in the UK and the hopeful with the start of their rise this side of the Atlantic must have been surreal, especially in 1964, when commercial air travel was still relatively new and the idea of international fame for a British pop band would be considered unrealistic (a couple years earlier, the Tornados hit #1 in America with 'Telstar' but that was as far as it went for them). I'm a drummer and think it worth pointing out - because such things are never discussed in interviews like this - that Ringo is revered in the drumming world. True, his playing is very simple and there are no solos to blow the minds of Beatles aficionados. But unlike most pop/rock drummers then (and even today), Ringo's drumming has the five things most important to being a great player in a band context: great feel, deep groove, solid time, authentic swing and relevant creativity. In the Beatles he also understood and accepted his role as well as his position in the hierarchy (something George found difficult to do for himself). Indeed, the drummer in Ringo's band, Greg Bissonette, one of the world's finest, bows to Ringo. So do all the other greats. They all want what Ringo has. Unfortunately for them, they didn't grow up in Liverpool listening to r&b and rock 'n' roll records from America in the late 1950s. And they didn't have the Beatles as a band within which to hone their potential into style and substance. This is why there is only one Ringo. And he is the best Ringo in the world. And damn, he has discovered the elixir of life! Thank you again for another fine, respectful and enjoyable video. After the Richie Sambora one and now this I will be watching more. BTW, here is Ringo (plus George Harrison, Ringo Eric Clapton) on Leon Russell's all-star(r) debut album. Ringo's funky New Orleans groove shines throughout. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SJJp_X4ckCo.html&ab_channel=LeonRussell-Topic Cheers!

Talking of beautiful people.. You ain't so bad ya self Allison. You have a calm cool gentle mannerism but I'm betting you can kick ass when you have to.. Love and peace from across the pond

Good work!

Ringo for president

How is it that i have never heard of this woman??? Gteat intervirw with Ringo !

The One And Only! ✌🌞🎶🥁

shame others dont know how to interview true legends, excellent

Great interview. You created such a relaxed space and you could tell Ringo was feeding off of that.

Can’t believe he’s 84. Wow

Great interview! Very good, respectful but not boring, a lot of fun!. Thanks!

Really good interview. Thank you.

84 seems to be the new when I’m 64.

Thank you Allison. Thank you Ringo for your love and thank you THE BEATLES

I think one key to his longevity is that he quit drinking probably around 25 or 30 years ago. Plus he plays drums I think almost every day.

Damn, he's got some big ears!!

Sería fabuloso tuviera subtítulos en español 😊 porque se transmite en Mexico ,porfavor
