    I love Ronnie Wood! So incredibly talented - both as a guitarist but also as a painter. He’s also, like so many of that era, incredibly humble.

      Yes, what a lovely man. You've reminded me, several years ago I found a beautiful mug with an elephant and rhino that he did for a charity. I treasure it, not to mention the many times I've seen him play.

    Ronnie is like Ringo - one of those guys who is loved by everyone and who is the social glue that keeps everyone together without a bad word for anyone. Heart of gold has Ronnie - I took his photo when he was out with his wife in Covent Garden one day in London around Christmas a few years ago and he gave me the thumbs up. A class act.

      Well guys who possess only a moderate amount of talent (like Ronnie), aren't in a position to be judgemental. They are grateful to be where they are, and hope that the good luck continues. They are not in a position to shake the rafters. So, yes, humble, but also realistically practicle. In contrast to this, Keith Richards, who is at the core of the Stones success, is very opinionated about other people in the business. Check out his opinions of Led Zepplin. Same for Pete Townsend. He's the core of The Who. Check out his opinion of Led Zepplin, too.

      @@KenTeel He's kind of a Jack of all Trades instrumentally, a decent player absolutely, but certainly no virtuoso. His guitar skills are similar to Keith's, but Keith's the author of some of Rock's all time catchiest Riffs/Hooks. I don't know if it's Woody not feeling he's positioned well enough to say certain things, I'm not saying for sure it isn't, it could be. He's played with everybody, I've heard most of the biggest names comment on Woody at one time or another. The way he's spoken of I get the impression he tends to be less cynical, and more affable than a lot of people just by the nature of his personality.

      Funny you should say that! At our school for a little while, was Jeff Beck aged 14 and we were 13 years old in a Special Art class, and the music teacher would go on about the great musicians, like how great was Mozart, and Beethovan had been; and show off on the piano etc. I was dreaming of being an inventor of a new kind of Music on piano, but did not get far:-and Jeff Beck was just trying to make a guitar and dreaming of what this guitar should look and sound like with a jumble of wires and bits of wood from the garden fence!!! He was not to know the heights he would ascend to! He would be the new Mozart of all kinds of Fusion/Rock/Blues/India etc and invented a kind of music that would ascend the others. He was not to know what would happen next, but he kept trying and kept working and learning and knew what he wanted to do when he found it or heard it. He also inspired others and so he gathered together those most suited musicians that could help them all along their way to success. I have to say the result is wonderful. However Britain was never going to get the prize for supporting her musicians. The Musicians them selves had to do it on their own in other countries like Japan and the USA. I heard a dreadful interview on the UK telly where a lady was quite rude and did not know what Jeff had succeeded in doing abroad. We do not hear from you, she said. What do you mean?asked Jeff. Well she should have done her homework first and seen what Jeff was doing all the time. I hope she is catching up on TH-cam!! Cynthia Allen-McLaglen

    A very humble, almost self-effacing guy, who's always interesting to listen to, but also easily one of the best guitarists out there as well as a highly talented artist. His extensive input & work with The Rolling Stones alone is testament to his musical talents. Something particularly evident during their many live recordings. The mutual understanding & many note-perfect interchanges between Ronnie Wood & Keith Richards on stage seem like they're playing on another level. The high degree of intuition evident between these two gifted musicians never fails to impress me. - I look forward to reading his books in the very near future.

    Indeed, Jeff Beck, when looking at his early guitar playing versus now, has struck me as a guitar player who never stopped wanting to learn new techniques for playing the instrument. Compare him to many others who've pretty much stayed in their niche for the entire span of their headlining careers.

    Ronnie doesn't seem to put himself anywhere near the great guitar players of the period. Truth is he may not be a "guitar hero", (whatever that is) but there is a reason all the heroes wanted to play with Ronnie Wood. He is a special kind of player who knows how to play 2nd fiddle as good as anyone.
    He's provided the background canvas for the others to paint their masterpieces on. Without Ronnie to play off of, a lot of those memorable riffs would have never been. They'd have been something completely different.
    Ronnie has had quite an influence on the British guitar scene for 40 years. Under the radar and media hype.
