Ringo Starr has picked his favourite song by The Beatles

29 April, 2020 - 0 Comments

If you ask any Beatles fan what they believe that The Fab Four’s finest song is you are likely to get a different answer from one day to the next. However, Ringo Starr is adamant about his favourite and it is a rarity that you wouldn’t expect.

The Beatles were well and truly in their pomp by 1966 and had become an unstoppable force in the charts but, on a creative level, they began experimenting even further. On the eternally adored Revolver they kicked it up a notch and the album remains a high watermark even by their lofty standards.

These sessions from the time of the album would spurn the one recording which Ringo would classify as being the band’s magnum opus. However, the track would never even make it onto the record. ‘Paperback Writer‘ was another gem by The Beatles which somehow didn’t make it on to a full-length album and, instead, was released as a stand-alone release in May 1966. The track would act as the B-Side for Ringo’s favourite Beatles song, the best they ever created, ‘Rain’.
