Ringo at seventy

A youthful looking Ringo Starr, his dark hair cut short, defied the crushing heat and celebrated his 70th birthday yesterday with a “peace and love” bash at Times Square. He told the crowd that being in New York was a “magical moment in 1964, and it’s still a magical moment.” The Mail has photos. Happily Ringo has refrained from the kind of nasty, self-discrediting comments Paul McCartney has made lately, and one can go on liking him. If Ringo is not likable, no one is. He was at the festivities with his wife, Barbara Bach, whom he married in 1981.
