Another great gone, this time its Charlie Watts

At 80. Seriously, a great drummer. I think. Such a loss.

" Watts is the essence of it all..." I liken his importance to the band to Pick Withers of Dire Straits. After he left that band was never the same. Like Watts , Withers had a distinctive style , subtle precision. Jim Keltner in that class as well. This my favorite Watts vidhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3FUA0Hj7fI Good cover of his contribution in NYThttps://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/24/arts/music/charlie-watts-rolling-stones.html?searchResultPosition...
