Ringo Starr
Ringo Starr, born Sir Richard Starkey, MBE on 7 July 1940 in Liverpool, England, is a distinguished British musician, singer, songwriter, and occasional actor. He gained prominence as the drummer for The Beatles, having been invited to join the band in August 1962, replacing Pete Best. Ringo remained with The Beatles until their dissolution in April 1970. In 1975, he established the record label Ringo Starr Records. Since 1989, he has toured and released live albums with the All-Starr Band.
Ringo's contributions to music have earned him nine Grammy Awards. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988 as a member of The Beatles and again in 2005 as a solo artist. On 8 February 2010, he received his 2,401st star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
He is the father of Zak Starkey, Jason Starkey, and Lee Starkey from his first marriage. On 27 April 1981, he married actress Barbara Bach, and he is also a grandfather to Tatia Starkey.
Description

- Grading description below, done with The Vinyl Archivist photo examples in mind
- Records are packaged with a poly outer sleeve, the LP is placed in a fresh white inner sleeve directly after cleaning, (we include the accompanying sleeve, we send you both), separate from the cover to protect the seams during shipment, and of course, shipped within thick cardboard insert pads in a thick cardboard record mailer.

SRO Records Record Grading Guide:
SEALED/Mint:
Vinyl: Assumed mint, unverified until opened.
Sleeve: Visible through shrink wrap, graded as above.
NM (Near Mint):
Vinyl: Nearly flawless, with possible minor scuffs or hairlines only visible under strong light.
Sleeve: Appears new, as if freshly printed.
EX (Excellent):
Vinyl: Bright, with minor surface wear and hairlines, not affecting play.
Sleeve: May have faint creases or abrasions, but artwork is clean.
VG+ (Very Good Plus):
Vinyl: Obvious wear, scuffs and hairlines, plays with some noise but no major sound issues.
Sleeve: Worn with creases, noticeable wear, acid deterioration, corner dings, chipping, and possible seam wear.
Here's the typical SRO Records line in the sand. Anything below VG+, unless it's rare, unusual or just awesome, we're NOT going to sell online, much less go through the hassle of an ultrasonic cleaning, we're going to put it in one of many $10 Record boxes that we sell at Record Conventions and events. Some will wind up in the $1 Box, just to get it back out into the world for someone to enjoy or make a planter out of.
VG (Very Good):
Vinyl: Dull appearance with many hairlines and scuffs, plays with persistent noise but no skips.
Sleeve: Worn with possible seam splits and moderate ring wear.
VG- (Very Good Minus):
Vinyl: Numerous marks and scratches, plays with significant noise but music usually overpowers flaws.
Sleeve: Rough appearance with possible seam splits and water damage.
G+ (Good Plus):
Vinyl: Many marks, somehow plays without skipping despite significant noise.
Sleeve: Heavy ring wear and damage, possible large seam splits.
G (Good):
Vinyl: Copious marks, probably has a skip or jump but no guarantees.
Sleeve: Heavy ring wear and damage, likely large seam splits.
F (Fair):
Vinyl: It's round with nearly infinite damage, skipper gonna skip
Sleeve: It's basically what's left of the sleeve for the album
