- Charles Robert Watts, the English drummer, best known as a member of the Rolling Stones, passed away today. RIP Charlie. Originally trained as a graphic artist, Charlie started playing drums in London's rhythm and blues clubs, where he met Brian Jones, Mick Jagger, and Keith Richards. In January 1963, he joined their fledgling group, the Rolling Stones, as drummer, while doubling as designer of their record sleeves and tour stages. Watts, along with Jagger and Richards, were the only band members to have been featured on all of their studio albums. Charlie will be dearly missed by family, friends, fellow band members and fans worldwide.
