WATTS COOKIN

Thanks for your great feature on Charlie Watts in the November issue [Take 294]. It brought back memories of an evening at the Marquee Club in 1964. I had gone to see Long John Baldry and his band. There was a crowd of about a couple of hundred. I walked into the bar and who should be sitting at a table there but the Stones drummer. He was on his own browsing through Melody Maker. I was a bit wary of speaking to him, but he acknowledged me so I sat down a chatted to him. He was so warm and friendly and absolutely made my evening. So sad he has passed and we all will miss him.

…Just curious – assubscriber, my November issue has a black-and-white cover photo of the great Charlie Watts, but your ad for the same issue has a different colour cover photo of the original Stones. Is the black-and-white cover for subscribers only?
