Co-founder and virtuoso drummer Charlie Watts, who guitarist Keith Richards frequently referred to with the"engine room" sobriquet, died Tuesday at age 80, his rep announced. the band’s upcoming U.S. tour to allow him to recover from an unspecified medical procedure.
Wyman, meanwhile, saluted Watts as"an economist" in both his playing and his instrument."I look at all these drummers that have all these pieces on [their kits] to band around on, and Charlie has, like, seven," the bassist said with a laugh."And he gets as much out of what he has as they do -- maybe more -- just 'cause he's such a great player."
Watts had taken a job in Denmark when Alexis Korner asked him to join his band Blues Incorporated, in 1961. The drummer returned to London, working days at another advertising company, and met Brian Jones, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ian Stewart as they entered Korner's orbit. They courted him to join the Rolling Stones when they formed the band during 1962, and Watts finally agreed in January of 1963.
