Telling the story of a backline player, even one in a band as massive as The Beatles, can be tricky. Ringo Starr drove the band's beat, but he didn't drive them artistically, barely writing any songs or calling any shots regarding their musical direction. So as distinctive as he is as a person, there is always the danger that he will disappear way back on the riser when writing his biography, at least when covering his years in that band fronted by John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
