Charlie Watts-A Life well-lived

I posted this elsewhere as a comment but I thought it deserved a post of its own.
A major reason I always admired Charlie Watts, the late drummer of the Rolling Stones, is that (offstage) he always dressed elegantly in the Savile Row style I admire.
Instead of saying R.I.P., I raise a toast to a live well lived.

Beautiful clothes. Charlie may have come from humble beginnings but he was a true gentleman

And a fine very competent drummer

R.I.P. Charlie 😔
I recently learned, seeing a news item about some books from his collection being sold at auction, that he was also a collector of fine books, another thing we have in common.

Yes, indeed. It transpires he was very fastidious even about packing his clothes when touring with the band.

🤔....Plus he NEVER took any shit from Mick. He put Mick in his place!!
@Jimmy2016 He almost put him in an Amsterdam canal on one occasion.
