Charlie is youst one of a kind he’s a man that’s is always on time he was always there on the pocket much love to him we love and miss you great Charlie watts
john! you do an awesome job, your interviewing prowess is unquestionable. charlie and ringo were to me what gene and buddy were to my parents.these guy's were gods to me, their playing was solid and always for the song. their setups were minimalist but, thats all they needed to get the job done-snare, mounted tom, floor tom, bass...hi-hats,ride cymbal,crash cymbal AND THAT'S IT! and so hard to copy, especially ringo,man! i played their records sooo many times and there's some i still can't figure out.keep doing what you're doing. a drummer from n.h. p.s.-love your drum setups behind you.
John! Hi. I wanted to say that it was an honor to have met you. You probably don't remember, has nothing to do with age. Lol! Ok. I, do remember! It was Mickey Curry day at, you know. And I'm his bother in law Eddie, and it was, around, 1992/3. I want to say I've yearned for the opportunity to live that kinda life, but always placed deep in my heart the love and adoration to music. It was such a wonderful experience meeting you and everyone that beautiful day. I watch your podcast. As well with many others. Peace my ,( hopefully friend).
Great analysis as always John. 19th NB ride pattern reminds me of 20 flight rock from Still Life....well I walk 1, 2 flight, 3 flight 4.....that jazzy triplet....I'm sure its sprinkled into other tunes....looking forward to Part 2.
John, my favourite drum podcaster on the tube. As a 50 year Canadian session, gigging and touring drummer, now retired but still drumming in my ‘drum room’ I avidly look forward to each new podcast you have coming up. Keep up the great work and THANK YOU! I learn something new every time. Ron Holland 0:02
Thanks, Ron! I appreciate the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the Charlie episode. I'll keep trying to providing interesting shows. If they start to get boring, let me know! 🙏😄
@@livefrommydrumroom I doubt they’ll ever get boring John. I’m really enjoying them plus, you have one of the best voices on any podcast and love the humor. Just a good time listening.
So happy I came across your channel John. Big fan of Charlie as well. I love Charlie’s maple snare with the Stones logos on it. I wonder where that is now that Charlie has passed? God bless John, thanks for the knowledge and info.
The cymbals shown at 7:43 are a 20" Giant Beat and most likely the 16" Formula 602 with Arbiter branding. The 2002 ride with the hollow Paiste logo was the "Ride" model I confirmed that with some other pictures I found of the top side where you can see the Ride stamp.
Hi john, im creating my own 72 tour tribute kit. Just got a vintage stop sign badge kit! Yet to re wrap it in black however haha. My question is how do you think charlie muffled his kick? Specifically in the ft worth shows from LAGTRS. In every other recording and photo it seems like he either put a pillow in or a blanket, it seems pretty muffled. However in LAGTRS it sounds especially boom-y. Do you think he just used less muffling, or was it completely open? Id assume coated ambassadors on both sides as well. Thanks, love the podcast!
Hi Alex, that's very cool. I always thought/assumed his bass drum was wide open in '72. I agree it sounds very boomy on the Ft. Worth shows/Ladies and Gentlemen film. He may have used the Pratt internal muffler, but even still, he probably drove the FOH engineer crazy. Yes, coated Ambassadors on both sides. And don't forget the two Walberg & Auge Buck Rogers snare stands and Rogers Swivo hi hat stand! Thanks for watching the podcast - I appreciate it!
Thanks! Actually happened to try a giant beat ride at a Sam Ash the other day and those things are really heavy sounding, maybe the vintage ones sounded different but ive decided maybe itll be more of a CW inspired kit than a replica after all haha. @@livefrommydrumroom
Also not sure how easy this would be to do but id absolutely love if you could do a "recreating the sound" vid, where you could play the various sets and try out different heads and tunings to get as close to the original sounds for each era as possible. Just a fun idea!
Firstly please allow me to say that I love Charlie Watts -- always have. Have seen he play from small clubs to Madison Square Garden. I have also seen Elvin Jones play the Village Vanguard to The Top of the Gate to an intimate day session at Trinity Church. I do not see any comparisons between Charlie and Elvin.
Charlie loved Elvin and when I think of his playing on a song like "19 Nervous Breakdown" I think he was inspired by Elvin's driving swing beat. Also, the ending of Midnight Rambler from Get Yer Ya Ya's Out. That's how I base my comparison.

You're frequent mentioning of 'song drumming', playing for the song and leaving space is refreshing. Thanks!
Thanks Bill! Glad you enjoyed it! Be sure to check out Part 2!
@@livefrommydrumroom I'm a bit bass ackwards. I listened to part 2 yesterday. Lol! Great stuff!

I especially love his ride for 72, that one had an amazing sound
❤Thanks John for your insightful and informative knowledge about Charlie Watts!

@@alexgarza4513The vintage Giant Beats are different from the reissues. Charlie would tell you, "Play what you like."

Music has a term called accelerando- so what, yeah, it does sound like Keith gave Charlie a look to pick it up…..HTW
