A portrait of Ringo Starr, considered one of the most proficient and reliable drummers in the history of Rock & Roll. Starr established a new approach to rhythm in popular music during his career with the Beatles that continues to grow in its significance and influence, as new generations listen to the Fab Four for the first time. He now tours as Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band.
Hatami was sent to Liverpool by
Paris Match magazine to cover the Beatlemania phenomenon, where he managed to gain access backstage at the legendary Cavern Club and shot several amazing images of the "Fab Four" both together and individually, as seen here.
