Who were The Beatles' drummers?
Pete Best was the original Beatles drummer who was replaced on the 4th of September, 1962, by Ringo Starr (Richard Starkey). Jimmy Nicol was a stand-in drummer when Ringo was sick. Most don't know about Jimmy Nicol's brief work with the band. Additionally: Andy White was a session drummer, producer George Martin brought in for Love Me Do" and "P.S. I Love You". He apparently wasn't thrilled with Ringo at first. They kicked Pete Best out because he wasn't being serious about the band; he never thought they would get to the top. Each of them played drums to some degree, but Ringo Starr normally played them on their records.
