Segment four of our tribute to Ringo Starr, shot during the Fest For Beatles Fans celebration, begins with host Michelle Joni Lapidos welcoming former Billy Joel/Slim King/BJ Kramer drummer Liberty DeVitto. DeVitto demonstrates two songs from the Joel album The Nylon Curtain that were inspired by Ringo, and discusses a few of his favorite of Ringo’s drum parts. Liberty then introduces Ringo’s personal photographer, Rob Shanahan, who shares his stories about working and hanging with the ex-Beatle. Rob fills us in on how he met the superstar, displays a few of his photos, talks about Starr’s new Zildjian drumsticks, and Paul and Ringo’s Grammy performance.
