That's right. Should be called Jagger/Richards Inc. Poor old Charlie is still an employee after all these years. He's happy though. Good luck to them. ::

believe he treats it as the day job....read a quote somewhere charlie saying "I drum for a rock and roll band called "the rolling stones" ( think about it!)....and he has another outfit with whom he plays for love..but maybe this is rock and roll lore and apocryphal

'During the past 17 years, the Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts has been able to pursue his passion for jazz, playing in a variety of settings whenever he wasn't otherwise engaged with the "World's Greatest Rock 'n Roll Band."

 

In 1985, he formed a big band and toured the States, ultimately releasing Live at Fulham Town Hall on the Sony label. In 1991, he formed a small group to pay homage to the music that first grabbed him while growing up in London. In a span of five years, The Charlie Watts Quintet released a series of stellar recordings -- From One Charlie, Tribute To Charlie Parker, Warm And Tender and Long Ago And Far Away'
