Stones drummer passes away

[Bellshill bhoy]

Charlie Watts, legendary drummer with the worlds most iconic rock band the rolling stones has passed away today aged 80, he’s was the backbeat of the stones, one of music’s quiet men
The stones are my favourite band, seen them load of times since the early 80’s, will rise a glass in his memory and put on the greatest hits
May eternal light shine upon him, may he rest in peace

My all time favourite band
Had every album they ever produced, and saw them LIVE in the States back in the day
Another LEGEND gone
When they played out here, a friend of mine produced the show, and my mate who was in a band, was asked if he wanted to chauffer them around town while they were in town
He's Scottish, and when the boys got introduced to him, Mick said "Hey you're Scottish, this is going to be great !!"
He hung out with them and was able to stand at the side of the side, just offstage, when they were playing the gigs, Keith Richards was smiling and winking at him, he felt like a kid in a candy store, and said it was unbelievable how he came to meet them
RIP Charlie, the quiet man of the band

Charlie would have been the 1st to say he wasn’t a rock drummer, his 1st love was jazz, he’d say he was a jazz drummer playing in a rock band
