Beatles session drummer Andy White profiled

Here's a nice feature story about Andy White, who drummed on two early Beatles recordings back in 1962 and who now lived in the U.S., in New Jersey:
That’s White you hear on the Beatles’ "P.S. I Love You," with Ringo Starr playing maracas. And on most versions of "Love Me Do," White is keeping the beat while Ringo taps tambourine. White also recorded a version of "Please Please Me."
The three hours of labor earned him a little more than £5, or 5 pounds — not bad for 1962, "though it’d been nice to have royalties," he jokes.
