Welcome to the board! Ringo's ain't kidding when he sang "I'm The Greatest". He is the greatest Rock 'n' Roll drummer... nothing flashy, just steady, tastefull and innovative backbeat and fills that compliments the songs. -------------------- The Bhagavad Gita says, "There has never been a time when you and I have not existed, nor will there be a time when we will cease to exist." |
