Terrible news. I liked Charlie. The motor of the Stones. May he rest in peace.

Dreadful news - had the pleasure of seeing Charlie and the Stones (with Mick Taylor, too) live in 2014. Was one hell of a concert.

Keith Richards once said that if anything happened to Charlie, the Stones are finished.... it'd certainly be hard to imagine the Stones without Charlie, that's for sure. Especially given that he never once missed a gig throughout his 58-year tenure in the band. R.I.P.
