Charlie Watts was never the most flashy drummer. He wasn't known for the frenzied solos of Cream's Ginger Baker, or for placing explosives in his kick drum like The Who's Keith Moon. Instead, he was the subtle, stoic heartbeat of The Rolling Stones for almost 60 years. We all Brazilian fans will miss Charlie. RIP 🇧🇷

The best part of watching this (I play the guitar) is Charlie Watts. Watching him drum on that first song (2:06) shows a man who is the master of his domain. Pretty cool stuff. (BTW - another cool drummer to watch is Tom Petty's drummer, Steve Ferrone . The guy has chops)

[@daled8221]

just rambling on, so cool & fresh!!!

[@WilliamPhelpsIII]

It is shocking to hear the difference. While Steve is a top pro, he doesn't have the short delay in the beat that made the Stones so distinctive. But credit to him, and to the Stones, for one last tour. I will be there! And God bless Charlie - the greatest of all rock drummers!

Y agree, Steve don't really have the Charlie's swing.

Ballerinas carrying on like this, just warming up, going through the moves, cigarette hangingout of their mouth as they do impossible stretches,splits etc, taking a few munches from a chocolate bar, to keep the energy up... Some even wearing their favourite football team's guernsy andlong sox and shorts... But, despite the appalling attire and greasy dirtyhair, sweatdripping off them, etc, they still look so passionate and sexy, artistically...Ioften saw painters or photographers asking the studio operator for permissionto sketch or photograph them in this very natural state.
