RIP, wasn’t really a Rolling Stones fan but I always remembered what someone who was said to me. “10 years before their time”
RIP Charlie. Love the stones. Defining era for music the sixties with some of the best bands ever imo.
First two albums were ground breakers in their day, but soon to be eclipsed. Saw them at the Odeon promoting the second album great stage act.
Legend. Seen the Stones once, at Glastonbury in 2013. Was unbelievable and probably the biggest crowd I have ever been in, had to make the field larger just to accommodate the crowd.
Only saw them once, at Nice's old ground ... ... showed up without a ticket and ended up as 'road crew' with the bracelet in their dressing room. What a night, what a memory, gave my son Graham the bracelet as a souvenir.
Always got a really good feeling about this bloke. I think in a band full of such try hard (who on the whole i love) he just quietly went about his business. Very cool.
Seen them at the Dodger stadium here in LA late 90’s. Brilliant concert. Another part of growing up has passed away. RIP Charlie above anything else you were a true gentleman and not a bad drummer too
Love the Stones, really sad news this, Wouldn't surprise me if they all retired now. Been a hell of a ride for them all. RIP Charlie
My memory is not that good, I remember being about 10 rows back and central. Did Mick sometimes chuck a bucket of petals into the crowd? I do remember when we queued for tickets loads of scratters rushing to the front just before the box office opened and the coppers doing sod all.
Saw them at Murrayfield a couple of years back. All over the shop, but when you're pushing 80 just turning up is something to be applauded for. Especially drummers whose wear and tear is much more pronounced. You're very lucky if you saw them in their pomp.
