BEATLES ANECDOTES "It is not widely remembered that Ringo Starr was also a member of the Beach Boys, albeit for a short period of time. After the tragic death in December 1984 of Dennis Wilson, the Beach Boys’ wild and charismatic drummer, Ringo was asked to fill in on drums for several concert dates as well as for the studio album The Beach Boys. Ringo played concert dates in the summer of 1984, including the widely remembered July 4th concert in Washington, D.C. He also lent his talents in the studio for The Beach Boys, which was released in 1985."
