We lost three music greats in recent days; Don Everly, Tom T. Hall, and the rock of The Rolling Stones – Charlie Watts. I never saw Everly or Hall. But ,one day in London in the early ’90s, I was walking down the King’s Road and saw a distinguished gentleman window gazing into an antiques shop. The fellow was immaculate in a nice suit, shiny shoes, and carrying a smartly rolled-up umbrella. It took me a few seconds to realize it was Charlie Watts of the Stones. The man had style – and a heck of a backbeat.

Here’s a clip of “Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)” that originally aired on the European TV show TopPop in 1974. The video features behind-the-scenes footage of the Stones on tour. Only Mick Jagger seems to be consistently enjoying himself.

“Heartbreaker” originally appeared on the Goats Head Soup LP and was released as a single in December 1973. It grabbed #15 on the US Hot 100. The song has long been a personal favorite. Roll it.
