Ringo: Peace & Love is both the first major exhibit ever dedicated to a drummer and the first to explore the extraordinary career of the 7-time GRAMMY Award® winner. The scope of exhibit spans Ringo's early life growing up in Liverpool, from Raving Texans turned Rory Storm, from The Beatles, to becoming a solo artist and then to the All Starrs with whom he is on tour now - this unique collection brings together diverse artifacts, rare and never before seen photographs, documents, personal letters and footage.
Ringo: Peace & Love will be located on the second floor and will include:
- The drum kit Ringo played at Shea Stadium
- The drum kit he played on the Ed Sullivan show
- Ringo's Sgt Pepper suit
- The cape he wore in Help!
- 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
Ringo: Peace & Love will be on display in The GRAMMY Museum's Special Exhibits Gallery through November 2013, after which the exhibit will tour to select cities to be announced soon.
