Recenzje

'An affectionate portrait, one that recognises Watts as musician, colleague, family man, obsessive collector and immaculate dresser.' Sunday Times

'Sexton, a longtime Stones chronicler, tells Watts's story with warmth and diligence' Observer

'Exhaustively researched... crammed with telling incidental information' Telegraph

'The book that every Stones fan will want to read this Christmas, largely because, like its subject, it's sharp, straightforward and blessed with significant dry wit ... an essential purchase' Classic Rock

'A book as gentle, fascinating and companionable as the man himself' Mojo

'Favours substance over flash, presenting an affectionate account of a devoted family man and friend, a particularly British type of eccentric, who just happened to play drums for the Rolling Stones.' Irish Independent
