Overall Rating:3.00 based on 12 ratings
ItemImageOn first glance, Charlie Watts would seem to be a funny choice to include in a jazz book for he is the longtime drummer of the Rolling Stones. However, jazz was Watts' first love and in the 1980s he toured worldwide with a huge big band that included many of England's top musicians (giving one a chance to hear Evan Parker play "Lester Leaps In!"). In 1991, he organized an excellent bop quintet (featuring altoist Peter King) that paid tribute to Charlie Parker, justifying Watts' place in any jazz history book. at allmusic.com

The top drummer in my book. I think "Tumbling Dice" really made me realize how poetic the drums can really be. I watched the Superbowl halftime show with a friend this past year who did nothing but criticize Charlie's apparently boring, conventional style. Mr. Watts has a real appreciation for the instrument and as one of the co-architects of rock and roll, he deserves credit beyond the standards we might follow today. He also gets points for being the best-dressed member of the Rolling Stones.

I'm A big fan of Charlie. He always plays tasteful licks and his backbeat is legedary. I can't think of anyone else who could fill his role as well.
