The song is Good Morning Good Morning on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

This is one of the only, if not THE only evidence of Ringo using a double pedal set-up.

  • I dont know how old you are but show me one picture with someone using a double pedal back then.

    i worked at sam ash in the drum dept in 1970.There was no double pedels.

    what your hearing is an over dub.someone playing on a bass drum with sticks or what ever.

    It was a time went people started breaking rules.Go break some...

  • @nigollllll Well.. It's known that Bonham from Led Zeppelin used a double pedal in the late 60s.

  • nope, this is wrong. Paul is seen in several photos with Ringo with headphones on playing on the floor tom while Ringo is playing. I guarantee you... ask Ringo, ask Paul, ask the Abbey Road engineers, ask George Martin. Ringo never had a double bass pedal with the Beatles.

  • @pkgannon I wish I could ask them, like I wish I could ask who did the ending to Dear Prudence.

  • you can do that on single bass

  • I dont know what you mean.Back then drummers used 2 bass drums and 2 pedels.

    We all did.Its all we had.

  • @nigollllll probably no double pedals but probably 2 kick drums.ginger baker .....keith moon......come on now.

  • @RuberHammer And before him, Ginger Baker of course!!!

  • @RuberHammer Paul did. It's a fact. He did ALL of it.

  • @RuberHammer Lol....Bonham was always 1 foot!!! deadliest foot in Rock and Roll

  • I am a drummer and I hardly think that Ringo played a double bass on this recording.Nowhere does it say in either The Beatles Recording Sessions or Recording the Beatles ,that Ringo used a double bass to play a double bass pattern ,however there were always plenty of drum overdubs.

  • OK.The first commercially available double bass drum pedal for rock was the Zalmer Twin about 1973 .This could be a bass drum played with mallets by Paul McCartney on the track. If you listen to Kreen Akrore , Paul McCartneys drum solo from McCartney ,not only is the drum sound very similar ,but the drum patterns are very similar.

  • Not so sure. Sounds like a floor tom.

  • @MCA828 It's Paul on floor tom.
