These classics rock songs show off Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts' influential, understated style.
When it comes to drumming,' Charlie Watts was never mentioned among the likes of the Who's Keith Moon, Led Zeppelin's John Bonham, the prog rock titans or any of his other limb-flailing colleagues. Nevertheless, he unquestionably has a place on the Mount Rushmore of rock drummers.
Behind the kit, Watts was a man of taste , with a jazzman's acumen for staying in the pocket and just enough behind the beat to keep the song reigned in while the other instrumentalists took the varied and unpredictable paths that were part of the Stones' modus operandi. Watts was the dependable, workmanlike rock the Stones were built on --"the engine room" as Keith Richards often referred to him -- subtly clever and swinging, picking his spots to stand out only when appropriate.There are myriad moments in the Stones' catalog, both studio and live recordings, that demonstrate just how vital Watts was -- to the Stones and to rock 'n roll in general -- during the nearly 60 years he spent on the throne.
