charlie watts was a shit drummer, don’t care what anyone says

Charlie Watts was one of the drummers of all time

>>116059309 (OP)

all the major british invasion drummers were good to great

>>116059309 (OP)

But there's that one song on the Let it Sneed album where is drumming is real good, I think it's Midnight Rambler. Plus in their best song-Paint It Black, it's his drumming that really ties the song together and gives it power.

Jimmy miller played drums on the albums he produced

Jimmy miller produced 

Beggars banquet

Let it bleed

Sticky fingers

Exile on Main Street

Goats head soup

Debunked 

Miller is also behind the kit on “Happy,” “Shine a Light” and the outro to “Tumbling Dice,” and played different percussion instruments on songs including “Gimme Shelter,” “Monkey Man” and “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking.”

and you can't always get what you want

So a lot of good songs true

Drummers and bassists are always replaceable

>inb4 John Bonham

Zeppelin was already about to break up

>>116059309 (OP)

Agreed. He wasn't that good at keeping time.



The Rolling Stones would have popped/rocked with a more steady solid drummer.

how so?

first drumfill in that song is a sloppy mess, great example of his shittyness here too at 6:15

>brings literally nothing to the song 

>has to be told by the guitarist what to do

Not if they write the lyrics

Better than Richard Starkey, a hebrew

You could have at least said Ringo Starr of David if you were going to make up nonsense

>>116059309 (OP)

Suck a cock, frognigger. You aren't even eligible to use your filthy fingers to type his name

starkey is an irish surname just like mccartney and o’lennon

don’t blame me for your shitty taste in drummers you rude butthole, also protip: anyone liking the rolling stones over the beatles is either gay, retarded or both

>>116059309 (OP)

he's like a male, boomer meg white.

>>116059309 (OP)

did he play the percussion on sympathy

Kek

>>116059309 (OP)

I don’t even know who that is

This is such a beautiful movie.

you can tell Charlie is a bit of an intellectual despite it all, has an intellect and an ego. He's really wrestling to find what boosts the song and hes flipping through variations and possibilities while the others are rehearsing their thing. He has such sour looks in this pic, trying to meet his own standards.



keith said he was lucky to have a lazy drummer. not entirly true i suppose. but charlie could swing hard, and was lazy enough to be minimalist

not exactly dennis wilson tier shitty but close enough, always seemed like he’d rather be somewhere else too

naw, he clearly hates the cameras - but that dosnt mean he wants to be somewhere else - he just doesnt know how to be a cool guy on film - hes way too serious about making great parts. he wants to fucking nail the songs. its fucking intense to watch him
