[Early Access] Every Ringo Starr Album Ranked Worst to Best
Added 2025-10-17 17:40:46 +0000 UTC
Hello my lovely Patrons.
It’s been over 2 years and 7 months since my last ranking video… I never thought it would take this much time but, here we are. I hope you enjoy this video I made about Ringo Starr. It’s the hardest I’ve ever worked on something and I’m so looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
Also, if you notice any errors/glitches/editing mistakes (I’ve already spotted one at 02:10:45) please highlight them in the comments to this Patreon post and I’ll have them sorted by the video’s public release on Monday. I've also turned ads off for now until Monday, so there shouldn't be any for now (let me know if there is, because it may be a copyright issue if so).
And finally, from the bottom of my heart… thank you for being Patrons throughout this process. This is what you’ve been funding and I literally couldn’t have made this video without your support.
Peace and Love,
Elliot
Elloit, that was a breathtaking journey. An absolute work of insane passion. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have learned so much

What a phenomenal video. Worth the wait. Thanks Elliot!
P.S. I caught that Easter egg at the end😉

I thought this was really a very worthy fool's errand! I loved hearing you uncover a lot of ground that was new to me. Its clear that you put in a HELL OF A LOT of time, research, and energy in to this video. And while it may be very apples and oranges, I personally would take this over Scorsese's Harrison film, as it just seems a far more detailed, specific, and fresh take. Seeing the rings you wore for this video reminded me of a birthday gift I received when in junior high. I had a friend get me this very cool (but maybe kinda cheap) man ring as a total homage to Ringo. Which in a couple of days turned my finger this bluish green color, which in turn reminds me of some of Ringo's dialog in HELP! My top 3 Ringo songs. Snookeroo, I think therefore I Rock and Roll, and Choose Love. I know you were joking, but in all seriousness if you did do any sort of Mike Love review/retrospect I'd gladly hear any and all of what you'd have to say, Outstanding Work!

Superb video, Elliot. However, I do have one glaring critique that I simply must voice... At 1:45:39, you missed a golden opportunity to include the snippet from A Hard Day's Night where Shake hands Ringo more fan mail than John, Paul & George. I trust that this shall be remedied in the upcoming Every Ringo Starr Album Ranked Worst to Best: The Snyder Cut video? :)

Enormous thanks for all of the work that clearly went into this labor of love. While a lot of Ringo’s music can leave one wanting, if the listener is open a good deal of his songs can bring great joy, and that was especially apparent in your reactions the latter portion of the list.I also think Stop and Smell the Roses is a hidden gem of Ringo’s, with fun Beatles influence from his former bandmates and a genuine pathos (shoutout also to the original Can’t Fight Lightning track, a kinda moody, not-quite experimental song I’ve once seen compared to Lou Reed).

Having listened through Ringo’s entire solo catalogue over the past twelve months myself, this video felt like receiving the results of a test I put way too much time into studying for (including listening to the live albums. Probably didn’t really need to go that far).
Genuinely one of the funniest things I’ve seen all year and, despite feeling like I knew what to expect, it was still unbelievably thorough. Incredible work, I loved everything about this video and hope you’re very proud of it

Hey man, this is Will from Canterbury fucking England! What an incredible run-down. So hilarious, inventive and entertaining. I find your style almost inspirational in how you convey your insight in such an enjoyable way. Sorry you had a crap time of it in my home town. It'll do that to ya! All the best from this dull ass backwater town.

I rewatched all the other ranking videos the day before this dropped to set the mood. And holy shit what a series this is as a collective. Not only learning about the artists and their music but also watching Elliot himself learn and grow confidence as the series has gone on. I don’t just watch these because I’m a Beatles fan, I watch because I’m an Elliot fan.
Peas and luv 🌈✌️🌴🥒

Just finished the video after chipping away at it all day. So proud of you for tackling this behemoth of a project! Been looking forward to this video for so long and it did not disappoint. This is gonna be such an eye opening video to people when it goes public, it changed so much of how I see Ringo now.
Also me and my friend always quote gotta get up to get down with that damn “everybody’s on the internet, what’s up with that?” line. ik she we be happy seeing you cover it when this drops 😭😭

At 3:44:37, I don't know if you intended to make a mistake there, but I think you confused James Newton Howard with Howard Shore, who was the actual composer of Lord of the Rings, though a very funny joke, I wanted to make sure you didn't accidentally get your composers mixed up for the sake of it, Newton Howard did do the score for Hildalgo, Space Jam and even co-composed Batman Begins but he did NOT compose Lord of the Rings, that was Howard Shore, so if you find a clip before the Composer commentors bring it up, that'll be great. That all being said, the video is excellent and I'm enjoying all the fun tidbits celebrating my favorite Beatle! :)

Also also also and I’m so sorry for spamming the comments 😩
Ringo the 4th is kinda my The Beach Boys Love You. Very similar “washed up, under-the-influence, horny 30-something trying to make a hit” energy, same endearingly embarrassing drunkle vibes.
It’s more weird than good and that’s why I dig it.
Also? Easily one of my favorite album cover. The girl on his shoulders. The sword. The roses. The mid-century medieval font. It’s delightfully wacky.

Incredible work Elliot! Such a great video, I laughed and cried. Well worth the wait!! Bring on the Mike Love retrospective! 😂 (actually maybe, don't...)
Mothboxer
2025-10-19 14:32:34 +0000 UTC
I think when talking about "Six O'Clock," on the self-titled album you said "homely" instead of "homey," at 4:17:17 regarding the piano intro?
Other than that, and the mistake you already caught, I didn't notice anything.
But yeah, this is epic, giving Ringo a full-on Ken Burns treatment in the best possible way. I had to watch it in four pieces, but lovely job!

As someone who simply adores Classic Simpsons and in this instance the cameos made each by Ringo/George/Paul in their respective episodes, I've always said for quite some time now to people I know that equally love all things Beatles/Simpsons how John Lennon would have absolutely loved the show and to a similar extent as his other old band members to even make a cameo appearance, that is if only he was around for the shows Golden Age existence. Idk something about the shows evolving humour that became more surreal and self-aware as those golden seasons surpassed each other and the heartfelt moments so many great episodes concluded with on such a rewarding merit for me will always be plausible enough to consider as reasons why the guy would've found the show so hugely appealing and so I'm glad someone, especially you Elliot now expresses this shared sentiment.

Yes, exactly - all 4 of these rankings (and especially this one) really aren't just about the music or albums but about what was going on in the hearts and minds of these amazing musicians throughout their careers. They really are person-focused labors of love, and I love them for that. I'd love to somehow watch them in chronological order, or even with all 4 of them spliced together!
Lisamarie LiGreci-Newton

Just finished after splitting up the video over my free time in the past 27 hours 😅 One of, if not your best, video to date! Very VERY well done, Elliot - you’ve really knocked it out of the park with this one !! I’m curious to know, seeing as this video was filmed over a year ago, have you been listening to much Ringo music in your free time since the ranking?

Finally managed to secure the time to watch this after being in work both today and at the time this was uploaded yesterday. Excellent video Elliot and perhaps my favourite of yours, never thought I'd truly be interested in visiting Ringo's music discography, but the love and dedication you've shown about the one and only Starr man himself has given me an idea of how I'd like to spend the rest of my weekend. Undeniably your funniest video, and the editing here is not only impressive considering the duration of this project, but consistently had me chuckling out loud especially as a born Scouser myself with the 'Ringo Beheaded' moment receiving a huge laugh out loud from me. Congrats on this incredible upload man, and ofc as always peace and love ✌️❤️
Steven
2025-10-18 20:33:40 +0000 UTC
I knew I wasn’t going to get to this video yesterday, but I have officially gone on the journey today for the past 4hr & 41min.
A truly amazing labor of love to Ringo, and well worth the wait and more. Everything that made the first 3 rankings amazing was tripled down here and more. You mentioned that there is no official autobiography, but I don’t think any written work can outmatch what you’ve done here.
I only use Patreon to support your work here, Elliot, and I’ve never been disappointed.
I also began typing this during the Patron credits and was gonna make a sly comment like “It’s Beatles ranking time” and then it’s like you read my mind with the ending.
Bravo, Elliot. Peace & Love✌️😎😎😎😎

Great video man! Completely forgot about Tonight from the Bad Boy album. I love that song, it’s Ringo’s very own Love Comes to Everyone, and there’s something endearing about the lyrics having a “pinch me, I must be dreaming” theme.

I LOVE the video. Thank you, Elliot. As I am sure is the case for many, Ringos solo career is the one I have explored the least of all the Beatles. This is very informative and an inspiration to look more into Ringos material. At least parts of it, and now I know what I can skip 😃. Making it a less daunting task. I also like how your love for McCartney shines through, too 👌

“If I was making a film about Ringo Starr”
Elliot I think you just made THE DEFINITIVE film on Ringo Starr. This is genuinely one of the most amazing things I’ve ever watched. Across this nearly five hour video I’ve laughed, cried and learned a lot about the incredible (and occasionally not so incredible) solo career of Ringo Starr.
Thankyou so much for doing what you do best and I absolutely cannot wait for 2027 (that teaser at the end was bloody genius, I love it)

okay last comment now that i've actually finished the video but wow!!!!! that was incredible!!! absolutely stunning and incredible. the portions about john and george genuinely made me tear up and made my chest ache for that beatles reunion that simply was never meant to be. just so fucking tragic and heartfelt.
the comment about paul not being able to be there bc of his arrest just made me feel worse in a melancholy way. like its kinda impressive how close we were to multiple beatles reunions that were thwarted by such small things, and then a very big tragic end for john :C
the editing and comedy was truly incredible. especially the portions on ringo's art, i was watching that part on the bus and had to cover my mouth with my hands to stifle my laughter
this is really a video that ringo deserves and i'm so happy i got to see it
PS. the last scene being a MCU-esque post credits scene made me laugh and smile so hard it was such a cute thing. i'm not sure what it's hinting at but whatever it is i will be SAT

If Ringo doesn’t mention this video at some point, and/or if his team doesn’t reach out to you, I will be surprised. This is truly the first time anyone has spent THIS MUCH TIME AND EFFORT publicly cataloging his work and life in a visual medium. For now, this is THE Ringo Starr documentary.
Gaby G
2025-10-18 02:43:38 +0000 UTC
Fantastic video that was well worth the wait; I'm well aware it's far too late to adjust these things but I will just quickly fact-check:
1. "Golden Blunders" was not specifically written for Ringo but was actually a cover of a song by The Posies, a '90s power pop band who later formed the backbone of the reformed Big Star in the '90s and 2000s. They'd previously released it on their second album Dear 23 in 1990 and then Peter Asher suggested Ringo record his own version of it for Time Takes Time.
2. The re-recording of "Back Off Boogaloo" on Stop and Smell the Roses that was produced and arranged by Harry Nilsson owes a heavy debt to Nilsson's cover of "You Can't Do That" off of his Pandemonium Shadow Show album where he re-arranges the song as a mashup with 17 other Beatles songs. Not that it takes away from what he does with the "Back Off Boogaloo" recording on Stop and Smell the Roses, but it was a trick that had been done before.
Anyways, brilliant video and wishing well that it makes some major waves on the algorithm when it goes public!

Well, I finished it and truly wasn't expecting to tear up a bit at a Ringo video. I really learned a lot, and one thing that stuck out to me was that Ringo seemed to really excel at bringing people together and that's when he was at his best.
It also strikes me how (throughout all 4 of the solo Beatle videos) there were SO MANY TIMES the Beatles almost could have reunited and it makes John's death feel SO much more tragic. (And it truly was sweet to see how protective he was of Ringo, in a way, and how much all his mates wanted to help him succeed).
Also, the sheer audacity of the song he wrote when the Queen died, lmao. I find it rather funny that the Americans were the ones more interested since....we kinda fought a war over that!

Oh my god this was such a labour of love!!! Thank you so much for this and all the work and effort you put into this. I just sat down and binged the entire thing in one near 5h sitting and have now have over 100 new ringo songs to fall in love with. Thank you so much Elliot and take a well needed rest. ☮️ ✌️ ❤️
Also I don’t know if it’s a mistake but around 2:10:41 you play a clip of what I think is Ringo in Alice in wonderland then there’s a cut to black where you say “play the clip from Alice in wonderland”. I feel like that black screen bit was meant to be taken out but no worries if it’s not.
Thanks!!

Great fun! At minute 38 (in the Ringo in the 80s segment) there is a short shot of mr. and mrs. Starr/Bach by a small plane, that I'm pretty sure is from their visit to Iceland in '84. And I was there, and saw Ringo play a snare drum on Johnny b Goode with local legends Stuðmenn, and presented a trophy to a winner in a battle of the bands competition, pronouncing the band's name, Fásinna, unforgettably. Good times.

Errors/Editing mistakes I was able to detect:
1. 27:59 - The blue background appears (flashes) for a second or so, before the rest of the graphics (album cover, track title and lyrics) appear.
2. 1:10:41 & 1:19:37 - incorrect album release year.
3. 1:31:19 - 2 takes of the same line plays back to back.
Aside from these, an all around well done video Elliot, and well worth the wait.

Proud of you, man.
I can only imagine how much time and effort this project must've taken, and I'm thrilled to see that it's pretty much finished!

loving the video so far, just fantastic stuff. I did spot an editing mistake (someone else may have said already) at around 1:31:30 there is a repeated line. Peace and Love ✌️✌️

The Simpsons references are filling me with so much joy! The Simpsons and The Beatles are the two things I love to nerd out about most, and seeing them combine with my favourite YouTuber just fills me with so much joy

This video is truly keeping me engaged, and I have to say, in the Stop and Smell the Roses section really got me. As soon as I heard 'Life Begins at 40' I thought, 'oh no, that's so sadly ironic'. It's always tragic to remember how much John was really starting to turn things around. (It really does sound like a fascinating album, I love 'messy' albums...)
I never realized he had flown over to NYC, but you could really see his sadness and grief. And there's something sweet about how the former Beatles would write songs for him.

Elliot for the start of the Chapter: Ringo's Artwork, you repeat the opening line.
I also find that while the song " A Man Like Me" might sound pretty bad. I do think that the way you use it underneath the description of Ringo's life falling apart, with him sinking deeper into the throes of addiction, makes the song take on a tragic feel. It could be the perfect movie song for a person falling into addiction.

About an hour and a half in, as we dive into the art segment (incredible), the intro line is repeated twice

Don't know if this was intentional, but on the Youtube description the 4:00:51 says "Ringle's Singles" lol. Funny if intentional though

I was quite unaware of Ringo's art career (btw - I think the intro that segment was repeated unintentionally) but there is something so earnest and wholesome about the MSPaint/KidPix thing I can't even criticize. Like, I just love the idea of him getting so much joy out of using this kids' program to make some colorful art. Bring it back! But all in all it reminds me a bit of his use of Twitter...he's discovered this newfangled technology, is interested in it, and is just using it in this rather innocent way.
The NFT thing, on the other hand...it absolutely looks like somebody took advantage of him there. The digital gallery thing itself is kind of a neat idea though. But it's hard for me to believe he ever truly intended to be part of a grift!
I now all understand the SERIOUS MESSAGE jokes, haha. With all his 'messy year' stuff it really seems to me like Ringo is just a rougher communicator but has no real malice in anything he says or does. Like, he's done with fan mail now, and it's very possible maybe his childhood wasn't that great and so he doesn't have that many great memories but isn't polished enough to really fake it. He is what he is. In some ways I feel these little interludes are more fun/interesting than the albums themselves.

Sorry for my pronunciation of ‘Beaucoups of Blues’ but it’s just how Ringo sings it in the song!

Loving the video so far, but it seems you have two takes of the same line at 1:31:19 before the artwork section

Another real time comment - the whole existence of Gotta Get Up To Get Down is just giving me life. Two old dudes bitching about kids these days on the internet, hahaha.
On a sadder note, I truly wish he had been convinced to abandon the auto tune on the cover of Grow Old With Me. Even if his voice had been imperfect I feel like it could have added a real level of vulnerability/charm to it. (I really hate auto tune anyway).

Why do I get the feeling your retiring the out of 5 rating cause when you inevitably do a ranking of the Beatles albums you understandably don’t want that level of backlash? Haha
