Exactly!!! Brother...you took the words right out of my mouth. It really irritates me to hear people say, Ringo wasn't that great of a drummer. Lol. Like 3 of the greatest musicians the world had ever seen, (John, Paul, and George), would have ever let a bad drummer play in their band. They knew what kind of magic Ringo brought to their sound. Two thumbs up brother. 👍☀️👍

It took Ringo to complete the package. Which is why he was there and not Pete Best or any other drummers they could have used. For this kind of magic that was not just great music but revolutionized it and literally changed the world it took those exact 4 along with that exact producer.

If I may....to support your contention that THIS was the greatest band of all time, let me begin on June 4 1964. On that date, the Beatles did something never accomplished before, and as of today, never happened since: They held down the #s 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 spots on the Billboard Hot 100. The next week, they "only " held 3 spots in the top 5. However they did have a total of 14 spots of the top 100. Another way of looking at it is...they held 14% of all available spots. They ended up, after a 7 year recording history, 20 #1 songs, the most of any band, person or group. Still to this day true. In 1964, ';65, '66, '67, '68, '69, '70 had at least 1 #1 album. In each of these years ( 1967 and 1970 being the exception of "only" 1 album reaching #1 '67 was 'Sgt Pepper's ' and '70 was 'Let it Be' ) they had 2 albums that charted #1! Just how the hell is this possible? Bands struggle mightily to get 1 hit ...1 time... and maybe get lucky and have 1 album hit #1. These guys did 2 albums that reached #1 a year, year after year after year ...except for 1067 and 1970..And the QUALITY of these albums!!!! Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt Pepper's, Magical Mystery Tour, White Album, Abbey Road. How in .... Now THAT is remarkable. Albums like Rubber Soul, Revolver, Magical Mystery Tour, Sgt Peppers, Double White, Help, Hard Day's Night and Abbey Road. AFTER their break up...INDIVIDUAL performances....Paul had 9 in the #1 spot. Hell even Ringo had a #1 record. Then, they had bands and collaborations .... almost uncountable. John had Platic Ono band , Paul had Wings, Ringo had All-Star and George...holy cow he INVENTED an entirely new genre...that of the live, multi-star, charitable concert. If one were to take the bands accomplishments, then added to THOSE, all the individual accomplishments.... You could spend all day listening to nothing BUT these artists, and ALL of it being top 10, mostly #1 in singles and albums, and not finish listening to the entire catalogue. Yeah, I would absolutely say greatest band ever. The statistics prove it. Post-Beatles, the band itself had best-selling albums. Remakes, Best of's, Remembering. Even a band that started about the same time, was quite popular, and remains popular after some60 years after their 1st hit, can't claim the heights the Beatles climbed. The Rolling Stones, as well-known, as many years touring and recording, can't approach what the Beatles did in 7 years...with the last 4 NOT TOURING AT ALL! 1966 was last tour date. Freakin incredible. If we had a scale of modern music of 100 places... worst to best....If #1 is the best..... there is no one at #2, no one at #3. I think other bands don't start coming to the BEST BANDS EVER until you get to 15 or so. Then there is a crowd from 15-30 THAT'S how much better the Beatles were than all the other bands. Most of the "good" bands were in the 30-50 range. Head and shoulders above the Beatles were .
The guitar work George does in she came through is extodinary. Melodic, great flow and crisp.

Abbey Road was, by far, their best harmony performance. Their voices were brilliant and complimented each other's tones, inflections and Liverpoolian dialects. Their combined imperfections created perfection.

Ringo`s work is just pure art alone.

That Les Paul has such a nice sound to it. And I can hear some of George's rockabilly influence in his lines!
That's the thing about Ringo-his work is finely tuned to the needs of the song. This doesn't sound like any other of his work yet remains decidedly Ringo
It's amazing that these were just fragments of songs and they just threw them all together. Pure genius. Even, You Never Give Me Your $ was actually 3 bits of songs Paul had lying around.
Ringos drumming is Brilliantly done...👍🏻 He's one of the best, and my favourite drummer...him and Nick mason ...pink Floyd and the Beatles are the best bands that came from our country.🇬🇧🎸
Ringo was amazing....love the way his drums sound...
i’ve always loved this song due to how driving the drums were. so fucking good. ringo carried forsure.
Paul's glissandos on the bass are so cool....
This is one of my favorite set of isolated tracks yet. I know this medley so well. Each element is familiar, but heard in isolation they are beautifully strange, and strangely beautiful. Such amazing music.

I so love the Abbey Road photos. After their experience with Let it Be particularly at the horribly dark twickenham studios it’s nice to see them in their familiar surroundings and as per the outtakes on the 50th showed they recorded most songs as a group (except when Lennon was out recovering) and the result was a spectacular album.
A truly hypnotic bassline. Now I'm thinking about it, it must have been the underlying thing that charmed and hooked me.
I love how each section is so minimal, not too many beats or notes, just the right amount...and when it all comes together it is so full.
Que grandes eran. Ringo es un metrónomo humano, las voces, las guitarras y los coros!!
RINGO'S DRUMMING: Like a thick slab of pie. Delish!
Fantastic drumming by Ringo is demonstrated here. Not too much, not too little, just perfect! Always loved his cymbals too. Beautiful!
I listen to Ringo's Drumming ALONE and as a "song" by itself, it's 'musically noted' enough to enjoy (Drums DO have a 'tune' ya know!)

These two songs in sequence are one of the best parts of Beatles criative stuff. Still today I love to hear and pay attention in everything - bass, guitars, durms, backing vocal - and vocal as sure. That’s why Abbey Road is the Beatles album I like most !

By deconstructing magic we find much more magic. Geniuses at their finest. Deconstruyendo la magia encontramos mucha más magia. Genios en su máxima expresión.
Those vocals were nicely done
Lets just take a moment to listen to George sing those fast bass line melodies underneath John and Paul's harmonies in "Polythene Pam" for a second.... No doubt George Martin's work ! Both Georges killed it here !
The harmonies at 10:23 on are other worldly.
Your thinking so damn simple I can do that.. but so brilliant you know you never could
Was just listening to this on the Let it Be sessions. Totally different.

With these tracks you could easily throw this into adobe audition and remix.
There should be a program that splits up the drum kit into a realistic stereo image.
Do you think George used the Fender Twin Reverb or cream-tolex '62 Bassman for his work on these two songs?
Let's not forget Geoff Emerick and his mastery of recording techniques that are still used today.
