Ringo is 75!

Richard Starkey aka Ringo Starr was born in Dingle, Liverpool, England on this date in 1940.

Here are a handful of my favorite Ringo songs:

Do It Yourself COMC Packs #13/35 Beatles Color

I (not so recently now) had 8 months worth of Check Out My Cards purchases shipped.  I divided the 153 cards into 35 groups.  I like to think of these as hand picked "packs".   I'm posting them in random order.  "Pack" #13, 4 cards, was $4.51 including shipping.

It's cool to think that these cards were released just at the beginning of Beatlemania in 1964.

One of the big questions back in '64 was, "Who's your favorite Beatle?"  So 48 years late, I'm asking you, who's your favorite Beatle, and why?

Here's what the packs looked like new:

Fab Four 1964

At $2.10 for the pair (shipped) I'm happy to add these 1964 Topps Beatles cards to my non-sports collection.

These two cards were from the last of three series.  Series 1 was cards 1-60, Series 2 was 61-115, and Series 3 was 116-165.

It seems to me that pretty much everyone likes at least some of the Beatles' music.  I was going to tell you and maybe find a video of my favorite song but the more I thought about the less I could pick just one.  The two CD's below (I think I have them on vinyl as well) have a pretty good list.  Can you pick just one favorite?

The backs of the cards in case you're interested.
