TimeOut

Sadly, it was announced today that Charlie has passed away. My thoughts are with his family and his fellow Rolling Stones band members at this time. Rest in peace Charlie. ...  

Rest in Peace, dear Charlie!

To me it was Charlie and Bonham…and then every other drummer in the world. We have lost a treasure and a great man.

you realize how he had masterd both intensity and tasteful restraint.

. . . in '87. Charlie closed out Saturday night with his Orchestra. Unfortunately there's no video to be found of his set, but here's Nancy Wilson . . . . . . from much earlier in the day. And yes, that's Bill Cosby MC'ing the event.
