Watts-Keltner Project

Has anyone heard this 2000 jazz album with Charlie Watts and Jim Keltner? Each song has a guest drummer on it, ranging from tribal to jazz to samba. I think its a great piece to have as a Stones fan, and a unique blend of sounds.

I've got this disk. And though not a 'Stones fan', I rather liked most of it (...if memory serves;-). Keltner's input is probably quite significant too.

Wouldn't exactly say that there's a guest drummer on every track -- the tracks are named after different eminences of jazz drumming, more like.

nineteen years pass...

Ha ha, it's not Watts-Keltner, but it's a Watt-Keltner (and Mike Baggetta) project:
