The Rolling Stones; Charlie Was Their Darling...

The Rolling Stones have posted a two-minute video tribute to Charlie Watts, their drummer since 1963, who died Tuesday from an undisclosed illness at age 80.

It's set to "If You Can't Rock Me" off of 1974'sIt's Only Rock 'n Roll, which starts with the line, "The band's on stage and it's one of those nights, oh yeah / The drummer thinks that he is dynamite, oh yeah." It shows a montage of photos, performance videos, an interview clip and off-stage moments with Watts.

It ends with the photo Keith Richards posted earlier this week, of Charlie's drum kit with a "closed" sign on it.
