This officially authorised double album cherry-picks from seven of his jazz titles, all of which are firm testament to his life-long love of jazz, particularly 1940s/50s repertoire, and his ceaseless advocacy and high regard of British jazz musicians. Charlie Watts' Anthology' is an affectionate retrospective and a reflection of just how frequently Watts was able to exercise his jazz muscles between Rolling Stones commitments to create a bespoke discography of his own.
