4.0 out of 5 stars Charlie's first jazz outing, February 21, 2006
By 
This review is from: Live Fulham Town Hall (Audio CD)
This is strictly jazz- no rock and no vocals. Watts and his large group take on some American standards here and do a nice job. This is the kind of work, where a rock star plays jazz, that introduces many people to jazz and this is a good thing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sing, Song, Swing, December 2, 2006
This review is from: Live Fulham Town Hall (Audio CD)
Charlie Watts brought the elements of jazz drumming into the blues/r&b English rock of the 1960s and his style has not been duplicated over the many years of his legendary work with the Rolling Stones.

The CD, initially released in 1987, is the Watts' Orchestra - featuring some of the finest UK jazz musicians - in concert. Watts is what Buddy Rich was to his bands; the drummer leads by keeping the swing, but provides the soloists enough room to give their own "autographs" to the music.

It is a solid CD from a musician who as early as 1964 publicly acknowledged his enthusiasm for the music of Charlie Parker - publishing a cartoon tribute of The Bird's work - and has never abandoned his love of jazz.
