In a statement to the Palestinian Authority News Agency, Bernard Doherty, Charlie’s Publicity Officer in London, said: “It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our beloved Charlie Watts. He passed away peacefully in a London hospital earlier today surrounded by his family.” How much is a successful drummer worth?

The statement added: “Charlie was a dear husband, father and grandfather, and also as a member of the Rolling Stones, one of the greatest drummers of his generation.

“We kindly ask to respect the privacy of his family, band members and close friends at this difficult time.”

Charlie joined The Rolling Stones in 1963 after originally training as a graphic artist.

He began playing drums in London rhythm and blues clubs, where he met Brian Jones, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.

Widely regarded as one of the best singles of all time, it quickly topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.

The band’s other hit songs include Paint It Black and Ruby Tuesday.

Charlie has been recognized as one of the greatest drummers of all time.

The band toured the world together, and it was announced earlier this year that the drummer would miss an upcoming tour to the United States, following a medical procedure.

“All my techniques are in the hats I owe to Charlie,” said Loul Tolhurst, former drummer on The Cure. Thank you and RIP Charlie Watts.

Elton John tweeted: “A very sad day. Charlie Watts was the best drummer. The most elegant man, and this wonderful company. My deepest condolences to Shirley, Seraphina and Charlotte. And of course, the Rolling Stones.”

Charlie married Shirley in 1964 and they have one daughter, Serafina who was born in 1968 and one grandson, Charlotte.

Fan Greetings also flooded Twitter with them sharing their deepest condolences.

One fan said, “Everyone will miss Charlie, he lit up the room.”

Another wrote: “Charlie Watts was a great drummer, one of the best players out there.”
