- This is a documentary video that chronicles the first meeting of legendary bebop jazz drummer Stan Levey and Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts. Taking place at Stan’s home on February 5, 2003, Charlie, who was in L.A. to perform with the Stones at a benefit concert, was introduced to his jazz idol Stan by writer and music historian Harvey Kubernik. Also in attendance was America’s leading session drummer Jim Keltner. Stan and Charlie had an eventful day reminiscing about all of the great jazz musicians that Stan got to play with over the years. Afterwards Stan attended the Rolling Stones concert (his first time at a rock concert) and he and Charlie became great friends. Produced and edited by Arthur Shelby Pritz.

RIP Charlie.. The statement from the Rolling Stones' publicist said: "He passed away peacefully in a London hospital earlier today [Tuesday] surrounded by his family." I will sadly miss him dearly as I am certain the whole rock and roll world will miss him terribly. Thank you for all the exquisite rock and roll.. Charlie Watts. The last time I had the pleasure of seeing The Rolling Stones.. I was front row and Charlie smiled the entire concert 😊😎💙🤘 he kept the motor running 💃
Yeah
I had the pleasure of seeing Charlie Watts and The Stones during the Steel Wheels Tour. R.I.P Charlie 😔🌹🥁🎶
We all must learn from the man..
@@scottclute7443 we could all pay tribute by appreciating his fabulous catalog of steady/strong back beats.. incredible body of work for a drummer... So muscular/accurate even his final 2019 appearance. Too young to go.. I'm inconsolable.
@@charleskusterbeck2994 excellent... a fond memory now.. thankful for camaraderie... what was your favorite memory of the show? You got to see Bobby Keys & Bill Wyman.. wow.. heard Charlie was double barrel on this tour.. with "Start Me Up"..
Beautiful moment when the two hug goodbye. 25:25. Charlie Watts is pure class and the sweet humility when he says, "I can't believe I met you."
2 of the most successful rock drummers in the world are stoked to meet an old bebop cat! So cool!
A great capture on film between true greats. What a lovely surprise visit that must’ve been for Stan Levey, then followed up by a night of VIP treatment for him and his wife the next night seeing Charlie play the Stones concert at the Staple Center in LA.
The chemistry and humility between Charlie and Stan is plain to see in this footage taken almost 20 years ago. Jim Keltner is also a great drummer, and the writer who came with them had great knowledge. Rest In Peace Charlie 🙏❤️
Drummers can hang like few others. I'm 74, Charlie got me started. Still playing solid, funky grooves everyday. Because Charlie got me started with that back beat. Excellent work Tubeworks.
RIP dear sweet Charlie.
I can not express how happy this made me, Charlie getting to meet one of his idols and him smiling the whole time. Charlie we all really miss you and we hope your doing great where ever you are. 💕
"They're playing a 'job' at The Staples Center". Spoken like a true gigging musician. Priceless!
I found that pretty amusing too !
God bless the Rolling Stone Charlie! Here, in Brasil, all of us loves Charlie Watts and the bigger band The Rolling Stones.
Jazz greats are so under appreciated. It's nice to see successful musicians from different genres come together and reminisce about this art form.
I heard about Charlie's death less than an hour ago, and remembered this beautiful document of the meeting of two giants, and the warmth and class they exuded.
I have seen this a few times. What a great video. These guys are a rare breed. Jim Keltner, Stan& Charlie Watts. Great players better guys
This is a really serious, exhilarating drummer hang.
I spent three years in the late 1980s playing with Stan’s old Kenton Orch colleague, guitarist Sal Salvador. Those guys were serious wild road dogs, and really breaking new ground musically. - This is a really valuable video, and I never knew Stan was a boxer. Now that I know it, I really hear the power and I punch in his drumming. He was a force of nature on the drums, an enormous, loud, powerful but deeply musical drummer. -
I shed a tear or two when I heard about Charlie’s passing yesterday, not only a terrific drummer, but just seems like such a good humble guy despite HUGE stardom, and always looked sharp-always.
Excuse me,the news never mentioned a date or time???
@@scottclute7443 not sure, bro!
It seems unbelievable that a musician would risk his hands boxing , that was until I read that Red Garland the pianist was a Golden Gloves finalist.
@@jameswebb4593 Stan’s father was a fight promoter so he was around a lot of boxing. Once I asked Stan why he got into boxing and his reply was “Times were tough and you gotta do what you gotta do.”
@@jameswebb4593 ; Miles Davis was known to frequent fight gyms, training to increase lung capacity. He also trained to get the junk out of his system.
Most respected drummer in rock and roll I will miss him dearly a she shed a tear
Justly admire Mr.Watts ways. So unassuming mannerisms..
Thanks for this. The living history of this great music is slipping away fast now. Just to have them talking about it and saying the greats names certainly helps keep it alive.
Like Stan said, the jazz life/music life can eat you up. Good to see they all made it through all that.🎵

Loved every minute Thanks for the memories x
I'm here after seeing a birthday post about Stan Levey. I'm so glad I discovered him. Great drummer/musician. Seems a lovely guy too. Thank you
That was so good. thank you for sharing.
Charlie you just keep making that musical sound and never stop! Xxx
Amazing video Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful moments w us all.
This is excellent. I'm 50, but I feel so akin to these older gentlemen. I'm a Stones fanatic and a jazz sax player by training. I met Mick on a tour with Matchbox 20. Charlie has been a lifetime favorite. Again, great video. Thanks so much for posting.
This was Great. Many thanks for the posting. Stan & Charlie were totally down to earth, no pretentious attitudes between anybody. Just enjoying time together.
Outstanding! Blown away watching this.
Just think about the amount of music played by those 3. Mind boggling. And all of it good ! Wow + more WOW !!
...wonderful to see how the magic of jazz brings smiles to peoples faces ;-)
Now that is a keepsake video. What a memory.
Yes❤️
I met Stan Levey that year thanks to my friend Howard Rumsey plus so many others. As nice as he was to me I could see if you approached him wrong he would put some boxing moves on you! He was big solid, and told me he still did his road work. We both are Aries and play left handed ride. Mrs.Levey snapped our photo. It was pretty exciting for me too.
he still looks like he can knock u on your ass here..🥊🥁
Charlie is like "You haven't played since?"...the look on his face is like..."WTF?"
What an absolute JOY this was. Thanks to all for this. God Bless to all and GodSpeed to Charlie. Pure class.
I'm just re-reading the book "Stan Levey - Jazz Heavyweight" so it was a treat to see this video.
I'm huge fan of Stan Levey and have most of his recordings. He was one of the very best of all time.
What a great video! Thanks to whomever made it public Charlie’s fans love it that I’m sure. The more we see Charlie in his element as an individual the more we love him.
You’re welcome!
Can tell Angela Levine really enjoyed meeting a total gentleman, the Stones drummer no less. Lovely moment.
Fabulous, thanks so much for sharing! :)
This is a tremendous meeting and film. Thank you for posting!!
Fascinating film,nice little insight into their lives
This is gold ! Charlie Watts was an unbelievable drummer
2nd post by me...Stan Leveys a jazz guy gave kudos to Watts... high praise indeed from a jazz guy...huge.
Charlie is the world's best dressed drummer !
Second best - No.1 is Mr Roy Haynes (arguably) - RIP, great man, great drummer: CHARLIE WATTS
Marvelous and special...thanks for posting.
My pleasure, thank you.
From Keith Jones ,Christian drummer Bude Cornwall. Sorry to hear about Charlie passing on I grew up listening to him from the age of 12 and now a 70 year old retired drummer. Always had a good crack sound on the snare drum a good back beat with The Stones. Thoughts and Prayers to his family. His Gretsch kit will be very sad without Charlie beating out those .
rhythms. There will be no more tears and no more pain. From KJ Psalm 23
Absolutely amazing! Thank you for posting.
What a great film and insight into jazz history. Dizzy, Stan Levey, Charlie Parker.
Miss Charlie already
What a pleasant surprise to run into this video.
One of the tops out there. Charlie was a non pretentious man/ rock star. A lot of lessons for all, from this fantastic meeting.!
God bless u Charlie RIP boy ar wee going to miss u Sympathy to ur families and th stones
A class act RIP Mr. Watts.
Remarkable footage, so lucky to see it. All class and top shelf, music history discussed by genuine players.
That was facinating! Stan Levy was the guy that went to California with Bird and Diz! I loved his stories and I wish I was the fly in the wall that day in his home. Charlie had the good sense not to talk to much about The Rolling Stones as we already know about them. This was highly impressive!
Thank you, I was the fly on the wall that day.
Probably because of his respect and admiration of jazz.
Charlie rarely talks about the Stones, when you compare to his interest in Jazz. He adores and admires the Jazz legends and pioneers. It would be totally out of character for Charlie to discuss the Stones when he idolizes the Jazz greats.
Charlie is a very self effacing and humble character. He diminishes his importance and defers to others on a regular basis.
Enjoyed this video very much !! peace to all.
so hard to watch this,,,,,RIP Charlie !! I do hope the Stones now call it quits out of respect for this legendary man
Solid Gold .
Another fine video. It could have been much longer!
It was especially great to actually see Stan's home along with these fine musicians, and the Parker interview segments were nice as well, it's the first time i've actually heard him speak more than a couple of sentences. R.I.P. Charlie. This video gives a good idea of what he was really like..
-Gary
Stick till the end. That's the best Stan stories.
This was a joy to watch ! Thank you .
Golden...what a great video.
Angela Levey. So pretty. What a life!
Nothing to see here. Only a bunch of legendary drummers having a lovely day.
Thank you for posting this - it is great!
Its interesting how some musicians, in contrast with visual artists, live in spartan spaces. There must be a certain psychological makeup that musicians have in common.
Wow. How delightful was that video to watch? Just lovely!
Thanks to Charlie we discover Stan
My friend Tom Wells told me about this vid! Just excellent! RIP Charlie.
oh how great !!!!! to hear and see in real life stan levey talkin´ ! wow ! so cool ! and that talented other drummer mister watts in the ring with them all. and the supportive angela, whom i "met" at FACEBOOK 2018. sure everybody needs to read their book on stan´s life. a treasure.
RIP Charlie
What a wonderful video! ❤️
It’s great to be able to see the relaxed conversation.
This is a great video shoot i feel like im a fly on the wall..two brothers finally met !
This should be titled Charlie Meets Stan. Charlie is the fan boy. Stan is the idol.
Beautiful !
This was a great little glimpse into the meeting of two greats. The mutual admiration is heart-warming.
Charlie was a true gentleman for his stylish suits and his gentle and quiet personality... so sad to hear that he's officially gone now
Really enjoyed that.
That was simply lovely. Charlie looked so happy to be in the presence of these great guys just sitting back telling stories of their lives.
I miss you Charlie❤️
This was a great meeting and event!! I really enjoyed this!! I would not mind being there with the conversation as well. Jazz is great!
THat was really interesting and entertaining. Very well put together with all the clips. I just started learning about Stan Levey and what a story he has to tell. Living in Harlem with Charlie Parker...Billy Holiday among others and playing all that great music with so many people. I played in a polka band once with my brothers..got a long way to go in my musical adventure but this was very inspiring. You can just see the joy of music on all of their faces....Stan...Charlie....Jim. Great stuff...thanks for posting!!!
True legends meeting and chatting. They all seems like very nice and friendly people and what joy they brought us with their combined musical talent!
I smiled through that entire video ..well done to whoever captured that ! Charlie looks in 7 th heaven there .. god bless him ❤
That was awesome!
Charlie is positively beaming in the photo at 3:45!
Charlie was absolutely enthralled to meet Stan who he considered to be one of his heroes.
This was great. Thank you.
Charlie famously 'hated packing & going on the Road again' but it clearly had it's great benifits for him!
Wonderful to see this!!
( ps Charlie's packing must have taken days given his always immaculate dress sense!!)
Actually felt as though I was in on the get together . Really great video.
Musicians of Charlie watts were so lucky to see players like Stan levy live
Damn - One time I was meeting photographer William Claxton at The Jazz Bakery to discuss some book/exhibition projects ---- He showed up: "Hey Fabs, since you are a drummer, I brought a couple of friends w/me...." Max Roach & Stan Levey
William Claxton very generously allowed Stan & I to use many of his photographs in our jazz DVD "Stan Levey The Original Original".
Stan dont care...Charlie likes that...became a regular guy...he always was. Musicians not stars.
Thank you!!
Such a great video, a fly on the wall experience of some greats just hanging and enjoying each others company. Stan's Frank story at 23:00 really tells us what kind of guy Frank was! Charlie was a class act. R.I.P. Charlie
Thank you I was the fly on the wall that day.
I knew the the Stones, they were part of the tapestry of 🎶 music that I grew up with 'Satisfaction' was the first time I heard them...back to Charlie Watts, the quite one...at an early age I instinctively knew that the 'trap kit' is the pulse [heart-beat] of the entire kitten kabuttle, no Ringo Starr...end of story! And no dis to Ringo!
I always wondered what Charlie's take would be on Charles Mingus.
CHARLIEEEEEEEEEE.... 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
I heard Keltner is the guy to fill in if Charlie couldn't make a gig.
all these cats seem really nice.. that's good because they're all talented.. extremely gifted artists who gave a lots of folks a lot of pleasure... 🥁
" I'm never involved in rock and roll music; I'm not putting it down but I just never got to that point..."
What a fine, modest, way to say that "yes, I am a JAZZ musician which means that I am an ARTIST, unlike those rock and rollers who are..." well, you get the point, don't you?
Charlie Watts was kind enough to give Stan and I a couple of backstage passes to the Stones concert in L.A. and we had a great time hanging out with Charlie, Mick and the band. It was the first rock concert that Stan ever attended. After the show ended I asked him how he liked the music, he just looked at me and said “I don’t get it”.
@@TubeworksVideoChannel Splendid! Thank you for that little gem.
@@TubeworksVideoChannel Great comment. Stan was always honest.
@@vova47 Definitely never any BS from him.
@@TubeworksVideoChannel I wonder what Stan would have thought about the band Rush.
"Charlie meets Stan"
and vice versa…
I remember watching the Ken Burns Jazz Documentary and while I enjoyed Jazz, it wasn't central to my musical habits, being a child of the sixties I was drawn to rock and roll and through that Blues, but it was that blues connection with Jazz along with the musical history on display that made me love the series and further appreciate how much great music can be missed if you segment it into labels and that lead to one of my favorite parts that being Stan talking about his father taking him to see Chick Webb and his Bird stories including Bird wandering off the train in the middle of nowhere looking for a fix and one comment that really stood out was Stan equating Addiction to wasting most of your time just waiting around , so after that introduction to Stan it made my day to see him here with Charlie and Jim.
charlie watts jazz que le rock
I really enjoyed this. Was Stan and Charlie ever able to get together again? They really hit it off as buds - almost like they always knew each other. Stan's wife is so beautiful and gracious. I felt I was in the room with them.
Thank you. Unfortunately Stan passed away about two years after this video was taken but I know that he and Charlie became good friends and I believe they did see each other before Stan died whenever Charlie was in L.A. I know that they emailed each other quite frequently and Stan gave him a lot of support when Charlie had throat cancer not long after this video was taken. Stan’s wife Angela has kept in touch with Charlie right up until his death and has gotten together with him many times throughout the years.

Just painfully sad that the giants of music often made pennies compared to the guys who idolized them. Rip CW.

Thanks so much, I will order the book as a Christmas gift to self! And the video is full of love and friendship and memories. Thanks for the site.
never heard of Stan Levey
Stan Levey is one of the unsung heroes of jazz music. This video will give you a good idea of who he is - th-cam.com/video/ZnHi0GR0REs/w-d-xo.html
Like many west coast drummers he played with Stan Kenton, Howard Rumsey, but had to stay "in the shade" of the fabulous Shelly Manne.
Slušný !
RIP
