"Where's the book Pete" a line funnily enough probably penned by our own James corden
He still hasn't released it. His autobiography tried to explain what he was doing, still no book.

This would be the 'book' Townsend was supposedly 'researching' when he got caught with kiddie porn.Didn't he also claim that he was trying to prove that banks/credit cards companies were taking money from child porn websites? not quite sure what that has to do with him writing his autobiography mind....

Ringo Starr is an absolute fucking bell-end. And there is no doubt that he was one before he was in The Beatles. But being in the Beatles has inflated his ego to the point where his arrogance is simply replusive. Can't bear the bloke.

A lot of posters seemed to be bothered about this famous misquote earlier in the thread. Of course your input is always very welcome and most appreciated by all.

Pet Townshend got it spot on...
`I was listening to a stereo L.P. of The Beatles in which the voices come out of one side and the backing track comes out of the other. And when you actually hear the backing tracks of The Beatles without their voices, they're flippin' lousy`.

Bit of a cunt, but I would defy anyone to have been one of the Beatles and not be one - 50 plus years of being told how great you are bound to fuck you up

The Who overrated? The Ox & Moon are for me one of the best rhythm sections ever, both brilliant musicians.

A quote from Mark Lewisohn:
“The London Times newspaper quoted John Lennon ‘famously saying that Ringo wasn’t even the best drummer in the Beatles.’ John Lennon never said that, famously or otherwise, and that is the London Times quoting him,” Lewisohn said, making a point about his motivation for trying to separate fact from Fab Four mythology.
“For me, it’s [a case of tracking down] when did he say this? I’ve heard every John Lennon interview, I’ve read every John Lennon interview, I never saw that quote. So when did he say it, let alone when did he famously say it?” he said. “I determined to get to the bottom of it. And it’s actually a TV comedian’s joke from three years after John was killed, in 1983. So John Lennon never said it -- and wouldn’t have said it.”
For those of you that don't know Mark Lewisohn is regarding as one of the world's leading authorities on The Beatles.

No, Lennon didn't say that. Unless John Lennon was actually Jasper Carrott in 1983??

Oh and to add to my list of Musicians I cant fucking stand, I have to mention...
Pete Townsend.
Fucking arsehole, who has the most punchable face I think I have ever seen.
Oh, and The Who are the most over rated band in History.
Ahhh, that feels better.

Wasn't it John Lennon that jokingly replied to a reporter that suggested Ringo's drumming was "...not the best in the world..." and said "He's not even the best drummer in the Beetles..."
