| | Andy White was one of the busier drummers in England from the late '50s through the mid-'70s, playing with bands backing everyone from Billy Fury to Marlene Dietrich. | | | By the '90s, White had moved to America and was reportedly living in New Jersey, and teaching a new generation of would-be drummers in the art of Scottish pipe band percussion. | | | The Beatles session was enough to get White into the history books, although he subsequently played on hit records by Herman's Hermits and Tom Jones, among many others, and toured with Marlene Dietrich, as well as playing with symphony orchestras. |

| | 13 Reasons To Respect Ringo Starr |
| | Ringo was not the "first" drummer to play matched grip or to muffle his drums, but his exposure as a Beatle made him the leader to the masses. | | | It is written within the context of modern Pop music, not to compare Ringo with jazz drummers of the 30's, 40's, and 50's. | | | In most recording sessions, the drummer's performance acts as a barometer for the rest of the musicians. |

| | Love Me Do |
| | Whether he preferred White's drumming on this number to Ringo's is not clear, but Martin did say that he used White's version on the album because the master tape of this song had been sent overseas to an EMI subsidiary company. | | | Returning to the studio one week later, The Beatles discovered that George Martin had a session drummer there by the name of Andy White who was to replace Ringo. | | | Any release in the United States as a single was done so on April 27, 1964 on Tollie Records, and as such is the White version, like the album one. |

Starr was brand new to the band at the time. | | | Castaldo's opinion stands in sharp contrast to a widespread notion that Starr who served as the Beatles' drummer from 1962 until the band's demise in 1970 doesn't measure up to his musical peers. | | | The man many consider the greatest drummer in history jazz great Buddy Rich was once quoted as saying that Starr was simply "adequate" as a musician. |

| | The White Album continued to show the taste for country music that Starr had brought into the band on earlier albums, such as on Rubber Soul's "What Goes On" co-written by Lennon, McCartney and Starr. | | | The Beatles explained that when he would present a song as a contender for an album cut, the song would (to the other three Beatles) like a knockoff of another popular song, but Starr did not recognize the similarities until they pointed it out. | | | You could take a great drummer today and say, 'I want it like that.' They wouldn't know what to do." In his extensive survey of The Beatles' recording sessions, Mark Lewisohn confirmed that Starr was both proficient and remarkably reliable and consistent. |

| | Pete Best - |
| | The reason given was that George Martin, who was to become the Beatles' producer, had been dissatisfied with Best's drumming (which was solid, but lacking in flair or "chops", as evidenced by surviving tapes) and intended to replace him on their recordings. | | | (Indeed, Martin did use a studio drummer, Andy White, on their first single session, having no chance to audition Starr beforehand.) The decision appears to have been a last straw with the group, who felt Best had never completely fit in as a member. | | | Randolph Peter Best (born November 24, 1941 in Madras, India) was the original drummer for The Beatles. |
