Ringo Starr on turning 85, meditation and The Beatles evolution
Sir Ringo Starr sat down with AP entertainment journalist Liam McEwan to reflect on a milestone year: celebrating his 85th birthday next July 7, 35 years of the All-Starr Band and a recent Grammy win ('I'd like a couple more if you don't mind,' he says). He shared stories from his early days as a hopeful dreamer, the musical evolution of The Beatles, and his mindset when behind a drum kit ('I'm in a blackout!'). Starr also opened up about his journey practicing transcendental meditation, photography and the deep bond he still shares with his bandmates.
