Unusually, the drums on ‘Back In The USSR’ were recorded by Paul McCartney. Starr left when McCartney criticised him for messing up a tom-tom fill. The altercation was enough for the normally amenable Starr to reach his limit. He left London and spent a fortnight on Peter Sellers’ yacht in the Mediterranean. - THE BEATLES BIBLE
I bring this up because walking through Wegmans rocking out a few minutes ago, I realized that The Beatles are so incredible that I for some ridiculous reason feel close enough to them personally to feel guilty that one of my favorite things things about Back in the USSR are the drums. 😬
