Fully agree with you Edith Ferns!
A soulful character and my favourite rock drummer. Yes, I'm well aware there are and have been more technically accomplished rock drummers - Mitch Mitchell, Ginger Baker, Buddy Miles, Viv Prince, Aynsley Dunbar, Kenny Jones and such - yet Charlie's solid backbeat combined with no-nonsense fills sits just nicely to my ears. Love his cymbal sounds too, especially that crash!
"Watts At Scotts" is a fine 2 CD jazz set by any standards and is recommended listening from the Jazzbear.

Warm greetings once again ABC Jazz and Charlie Watts admirers.
Love those Youtube clips, but may I passionately recommend the third one listed 'Charlie Watts If It Ain't Got That Swing' - marvellous indeed. In addition to "Watts At Scott's", may I further suggest listening to his corker of an album "From One Charlie ...".
