Ringo rocks!!!
Ozul Bomonte, Zimbabwe

I liked Paul even when he formed WIngs and had many hits in the 70's.
Richard Barrett, Connecticut

Few people realize that the Beatles were of Irish descent. George Harrison's maternal grandfather came from Co. Wexford. John Lennon was very much aware of his Irish heritage also. The Beatles music still sounds fresh and modern after 40 plus years. The Rolling Stones and U2 are great, but they are not as prolific as the Beatles were.
Kevin P. Murphy, Massachusetts

George. I liked his introspect, his tunes and his voice. I don't agree with his pervasive spirituality but his tunes were always catchy.
