Text : Tim Coffman

In any great rock band, the drummer often receives less recognition. Unless they’re named John Bonham or Neil Peart, few people line up to applaud the person behind the kit.

During The Rolling Stones’ golden age, he considered ‘Street Fighting Man’ one of Charlie Watts’ most outstanding performances.

6. Charlie Watts

  • "Practising, Practising, Just Great"
  • From One Charlie
  • 1991

Watts' first and lifelong musical love was not rock 'n' roll but jazz. Out on the road with the Stones, you'd often find him visiting local jazz clubs on the band's off nights. Watts' first solo album, 1991's From One Charlie, featured his own jazz group, the Charlie Watts Quintet. Here's the leadoff track from that album, as polished and skillful as any professional jazz musician.

 

 

 

 

15. Charlie Watts

  • "Art Blakey"
  • Charlie Watts Jim Keltner Project
  • 2000

One thing that is integral to understanding Watts as a musician is that being the drummer for the Rolling Stones was just one aspect of his career. Watts' resume stretches much further beyond that, including a collaborative album he released with fellow drummer Jim Keltner in 2000 called, aptly, Charlie Watts Jim Keltner Project. Part of its premise was to record songs inspired by different drummers. Here's an eclectic one based on the style of Art Blakey, one of the most influential jazz drummers of all time.
