Ringo Starr: The Beatles' music reaches every generation
Ringo Starr shared his vision for the Beatles' enduring legacy, expressing delight that their music continues to reach every generation.
In a new interview with the Financial Times, Starr spoke fondly of the Beatles' enduring popularity, and gave a compelling reason for their continued popularity.
"Every generation, if they like music, listens to us. And you know, we still sell records. We have billions of streams a year! It's incredible. I know why. The music was great, the songs were great, the attitude was great," Ringo said.
He took the opportunity to praise his original collaborator, Paul McCartney.
"Paul and I are still doing what we were doing back then. We're touring, we're making records," Ringo stated.
During the interview, he also reflected on the success of the album "Abbey Road", commenting:
"I love the Abbey Road story because we all sat in a circle and said, 'We have this album, let's go to India and do it, let's go to Everest, let's go to the Pyramids or just cross the street.' And that's exactly what we did. A lot of times the Beatles would just sit around and talk about big ideas and then say, 'Let's just cross the crosswalk.' And it turned out great."
