Starr's close friend, Kenney Jones, drummer for the Faces and Moon's replacement in the Who, stated that he "virtually taught" the young Starkey to play the drums.

His father gave him only one lesson, but he discouraged his growing interest because of the desire not to see him in the same business. Starkey subsequently began teaching himself to play the drums. The drum kit was later sold at Sotheby's for £12,000.
