Contesto

Ringo Starr, the legendary drummer for The Beatles, has revealed that he made all his mistakes on stage, offering a candid reflection on a career that has spanned more than six decades. In a wide-ranging interview, Starr discussed his upcoming country album, the honor of being a Sir, and the surprising origin of one of the most famous song titles in music history: 'A Hard Day's Night.' The remarks come as the 83-year-old musician continues to defy expectations, proving that his creative drive remains as strong as ever.
