On first look, Charlie Watts appears to be to be always a funny choice relating to a jazz reserve for he’s the longtime drummer from the Rolling Rocks. Nevertheless, jazz was W’ first like and in the 1980s he toured world-wide with an enormous big music group that included a lot of England’s best musicians (offering one an opportunity to hear Evan Parker play “Lester Leaps In!”). In 1991, he arranged a fantastic bop quintet (offering altoist Peter Ruler) that paid tribute to Charlie Parker, justifying W’ place in virtually any jazz history reserve.
