Bob Watson left us on Thursday 1 December 2022.
A class act and a giant of a drummer.
Bob played with many prominent local and overseas artists including Don Burrows, Bob Barnard, George Golla, Vince Genova, Graeme Bell, Ed Gaston, Di Bird, and many more.
He created and managed Brisbane's Bassnote Restaurant in 199?, a great jazz venue that hosted many famous artists including James Morrison and Jimmy Webb amongst others.
