Before Ringo, the group’s drummer was Pete Best, who had played with the band during their early years in Liverpool and Hamburg. However, producer George Martin expressed concerns about Best’s drumming, prompting the band to bring in Ringo, a respected Liverpool musician from Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. His addition solidified the Fab Four—John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr—creating the lineup that would go on to achieve global fame.
