| Trivia | One of the drummers listed in the drum sequence is Andy White. He was the session drummer hired by George Martin for the first Beatles recording session as he had not heard Ringo Starr drum so wanted a good drummer for that session. He is featured on the Beatles first single Love Me Do. Andy White died in 2015. See more » |
