Ringo & The Rockin' Rooster (CR #972)
If the Rockin' Rooster had become a drummer
by listening to no one but Ringo Starr
this Vermont farm scene would be re-created
in an exhibit room adjacent to what is featured
in the following Photograph
IN LOS ANGELES, GRAMMY MUSEUM EXHIBIT EXPLORES THE LIFE OF RINGO STARR
Ringo: Peace & Love, the first major exhibit ever dedicated to a drummer, ends March 2014
The exhibit includes:
• The drum kit he played on The Ed Sullivan Show
• The drum kit he used while recording Let It Be and Abbey Road
• Ringo’s Sgt. Pepper Suit
• The Red Jacket worn during the filming of The Beatles' rooftop concert
• Personal letters, photographs and documents from the Starkey family
and Ringo’s days with the Beatles
It also is an interactive exhibit, where visitors can take a drum lesson with Ringo.

The Rockin' Rooster crows Coochy Coochy
And no farmer is forsaken
A splendid time is guaranteed
For all who thus awaken
In lieu of cock-a doodle-do
As the Coochy Rooster
Flaps his wing
You will hear
Ringo sing
Again you hear Ringo
In the page's upper half
When you click on the word
