Tuesday, 14 June 2011


Having just turned 70 earlier this month Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts nonetheless shows no signs of hanging up his sticks just yet as he prepares to play two special nights at the Pizza Express Jazz Club in London on 24 and 25 June.

A longstanding lover of jazz, Watts for the Dean Street shows teams up once again with boogie-woogie piano exponents Axel Zwingenberger and Ben Waters with old school friend Dave Green on bass and Lila Ammons (granddaughter of boogie-woogie legend Albert Ammons) on vocals. The band occasionally gets together for short tours, but this is a first for the Pizza Express Jazz Club.

Watts has always had an interest in bebop and hard bop and in the 1980s and 1990s kept his own jazz groups busy with tours and albums such 'Live At Fulham Town Hall' and Bird homage 'From One Charlie'. More recently in 2004 his live album recorded just over the road in Ronnie Scott’s – 'Watts at Scott’s' – is perhaps the pick of the bunch, but Watts has also teamed up to effect with jazz-influenced rock players such as drummer Jim Keltner. Watts’ interest in boogie-woogie goes way back to Rocket 88 in which he played with Stones co-founder Ian Stewart.

There are two houses for the Pizza shows each night and while tickets are a crisp Ł55 per head there’s sure to be considerable demand from Charlie’s legion of fans.
– Stephen Graham

Hey left shoe shuffle, I think you're now the Rocks Off hero for two reasons... Let me explain, I was about to use the "moves like jagger" video as a header LOL, when I saw those pictures I changed my mind, second reason is we love to see Charlie up there... don't we?

I'm sure it's hot there. Hopefully Charlie didn't get too warm in the suit digging god damned holes in Poland.

“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef
