For 58 years, Charlie Watts manned the drum kit behind Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, the unflappable bedrock of the Rolling Stones sound. Compared to his British Invasion contemporaries, he wasn’t a bombastic virtuoso like Keith Moon, and a gregarious personality didn’t shine through his playing like Ringo Starr. Instead, Watts was a drummer’s drummer, always in the pocket, always finding the perfect fill to serve the song. With his dapper suits and knowing smile, he was the mysterious one who gave few interviews and famously listened to more jazz than Rock ’n’ Roll.
Find out what the critics and DJ Gerry feel are his best Rolling Stones drum licks.
Rolling Stone's music Sound bites, isolated drum tracks and rare video clips are included.
There were a lot of songs to choose from so feel feel to leave a comment below with your favorites!
Thank you DJ Dallas and DJ Silene for all your amazing video topic suggestions and for all your support and encouragement!!

Sure, great jazz drummers like Joe Morello or Gene Krupa showed that you could sound great with a small drum kit. Or in the context of rock n roll: Ringo. Not sure about Charlie, I think his playing is too minimalistic for my taste. Maybe because overall I prefer Beatles to Stones...

As a drummer myself from years ago, I can honestly say, Charlie Watts was one of the most Brilliant drummers; Why, because he never played to impress the crowds, in fact, he only applied as much persucusion as the song required. He never had to work that hard---in fact, he always looked totally relaxed! That, to me, is a freakin' Genius!

Bought a book in the 80's with Stones interviews. Also read lot of Keith interviews. In the book Bill Wyman explained that the band leader was Charlie and Keith follow him, the beat.. Sometimes Keith pushed stronger riffs, Charlie change the beat to keep the sound but afterwards he got the "command". In Keith interviews he said that between the two existing a instinct coordenation.. Seeing and listening them alive is true. Was the Stones Sound. Keith Moon was great, Billy Cobham, the fabulous John Bonham etc.. Lots of them. Ringo Star...? A few, and Won't Come Easy is is great song.. No comparation. Charlie Watts with a very simple drums got it all the sound. Not a "exibicionist" with great solo games etc. From Gimmie Shelter to Miss You, all the songs of Sticky, Exile was him behind, just a paid of attention for the records and Bill and Keith were right. He was no show off but his beat grooves. Stones sound are between the two, a fabulous Mix! Hard to explain but they are the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the world..

Charle had the incredible talent for playing exactly what a song needed, no more and no less. - and if you think that is easy, try it some time. - when I played covers of Stones’ songs, I realized this and how deceptive his playing is - it’s not what you play but how - and I learned that what Charlie shared with Ginger Baker, and they were virtually the only drummers playing rock who had it, was a sense of SWING - “Casino Boogie” on Exile on Main Street is exemplary; this feel is virtually a lost art these days - both Ginger and Charlie had the same attitude for their playing: they were there to lift the band and make everybody else sound good, it wasn’t look at me - it’s a sad time for me; now with Charlie’s passing there’s only one left [BC] here on Earth of my personal pantheon (Ginger Baker - Billy Cobham - Elvin Jones - Mitch Mitchell - Keith Moon - Charle Watts - Tony Williams). - thank you for posting this tribute

I think one thing that should not be overlooked, is that Charlie held his sticks in "traditional grip", look at his left hand. Very few drummers do this.

When I first saw The Stones Tattoo You Tour 1981 Hartford Civic Center, Charlie had the smallest basic Rock n Roll Drum Set and laid down the smoothest beat. Just amazed how he didn't go for the loaded out drum sets you see out there. As a fan only perspective. Tattoo You Tour 1981, Steel Wheels Tour 1989 and No Security Tour 1999.

The Stones roots were in the blues where the rhythm section is no frills bare bones. Charlie fit the bill. And he survived because other than Keith Richards, there was no room for another member to take any of the spot light away from Mick. So much of Charlie's longevity in the band was due to his low key personality, likeable character and his reliability, not his technical prowess as a drummer. A more gifted drummer like Keith Moon or John Bonham would not have fit in the Stones stylistically or personality wise. Charlie never let his ego get away from him which is amazing given the circumstances.

I like Drummers like Charlie Watts, he played the steady Rock Groove, nothing else is important to play RocknRoll. Bass Drum + Snare Drum featured. All other Drummers are Divas, trying to say: I am the greatest (dubble strokes, Paradiddle etc.), but Charlie was concentrated in playing pure Rock Music, no complicated breaks and stupid Solo Parts like all others . I will miss you , Charlie 😥 waltnRoll ....

Very surprised to see you have used our version of 'Gimme Shelter' instead of The Stones original (at 2 minutes in)...!!!

Awesome, I am glad that I got tickets to the LA show. The Stones have vowed to play until they drop. So, the only thing that could stop this tour is the pandemic.
