"Lots" is probably the best answer; they went through at least 5 drummers - some on one night only. George Harrison said the best drummer they ever had was someone called Thomas Moore. Their most "durable" drummers were Pete Best - who was drummer for 2 years - and, of course, Ringo Starr.
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.
The names of THE BEATLES are: John Lennon, Sir Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr (aka Richard Starkey). Also in THE BEATLES were Stu Stucliff [(left because he was not that good a musician) and died from a brain hemorrhage], and Pete Best (fired and replaced by Ringo Starr because Pete Best was only an average drummer).
