It’s been over 56 years since The Beatles released arguably their greatest album in Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.
On the famous cover, the Fab Four dressed up as their alter egos in colourful uniforms and now Sir Ringo Starr has been reunited with his famous costume.
In a new video with Julien’s Auctions, the 83-year-old shared: “Somebody came in with a web of colours and I went for this one. I’ve been chatted about since I picked pink!”
Sir Ringo was promoting his new book Beats and Threads which features “nearly 300 captivating images of the Beatles legend and global icon, many never before seen from his childhood in Liverpool to the Fab Four era to today accompanied by previously untold stories behind them.
