<b>Ringo Starr's eventful and remarkable life laid bare in a first-of-its-kind mosaic biography of one of the greatest musicians of all time.</b><br/><br/>Often overshadowed by his former bandmates, Starr's remarkable story is no less compelling. 'Ringo: A Fab Life' highlights a life so jaw-droppingly eventful that one is left wondering how he also had time to become one of the best musicians on the planet.<br/><br/>Through an episodic, mosaic format critically acclaimed author Tom Doyle takes readers through the ride of a lifetime, from Starr's brushes with death as a child bought up in poverty, through to dizzying heights of fame and success with The Beatles and beyond. By examining pivotal moments, anecdotes and cautionary tales, we see Starr soar as part of the biggest band in the world - and then try and cope with life outside of it: a film career, misadventures with friends, children's TV narrator, furniture designer, marriage to a Bond girl, before eventually finding peace and sobriety as one of the elder statesmen of rock.<br/><br/>So much more than another Beatles related biography, we follow Starr's career far beyond the rose-tinted sixties, through the various addictions and career left turns in the seventies and eighties, before reaching the 1990's, his legacy and reputation intact.<br/><br/>The life of Richard Starkey is long overdue a proper inspection and this book - with exclusive new interviews conducted by Doyle with, amongst others, Starr himself - provides a never-before-seen level of detail that will delight hardcore fans and curious readers alike.<br/><br/><i>Ringo: A Fab Life</i> - hilarious, moving, insightful and constantly surprising - is the definitive account of one of the greatest living musicians and the uncontested best drummer in The Beatles.
