I agree about The Beatles but not about only three of them being talented - a good musician fits in with the style of the music being produced and on most of their music Ringo (I presume it is him that you mean) fits really well.
The early Beatles were a great live band and having a good drummer is part of that - it's all about feel and not technique IMHO
