Ben Waters really got this together. I played with David Green since I was 15. We lived next door to each other when we were five, I think. So I’ve played with David a lot. And Dave and I had played with Axel on a television show [about boogie woogie piano], A Left Hand Like God,in the mid-’80s. Rather like my own jazz projects, I play this as a wa...
Ian Stewart [with whom Watts played in the short-lived ’80s side project Rocket 88] was a boogie woogie piano player. He was in The Stones when I joined them and he played with The Stones all the way through his life. And I favored a lot of it. Not me playing it but the sound of it. It’s like this: Keith [Richards] copied Chuck Berry. I copied Fred...
I use a ’57 round badge natural maple wood Gretschwith The Stones. And with this and most of my jazz things I use a 1960 round badge, black, small kit. The Tony Williams, I call it. It’s the one Tony used. It was like his signature drum kit when he was with Miles. And that’s why I play it, because of him, really. And in Europe when I play I use a 1...
I never knew I did that until Jim Keltner saw me play in 1970. He asked me why I did it, and I didn’t know what he was talking about. And I still don’t know what it is, and I still don’t know I’m doing it. People have asked me to explain why I do it. The only way I can imagine is I play [traditional grip] with my left hand. And maybe it’s a way of ...
I don’t feel [overexposed] at all. I never think about it, to be honest. It’d drive you mad if you did, or you’d be frightened to go out the front door. Half the time people talk about things [I do in my playing], I’m not aware I do it, or am it, or whatever they talk about. Then I have to look at it. But I’m not actually aware of it and it certain...
9 de nov. de 2020 · 1. The Flat Ride. If you can only afford one cymbal, this is where you’ll need to start. Charlie has used the same 18” UFIP flat since the late ‘70s, and it has become integral to his sound. As the name implies, flat rides don’t have bells. So, choosing such a cymbal will significantly limit your playing options, since you can’t play bell patterns.

26 de may. de 2017 · And of course, thank you to Mr. Charlie Watts. 13 coats of tinted nitro-cellulose lacquer for the beautiful “vintage aged” color of Charlie’s kit. Close-up photo on my cell phone of Charlie's rack tom for color matching. The drum whisperer himself, Paul Cooper, Director of Operations did the bearing edges.
