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.

Ronnie looks like he did around 1,400 with the Stones, and another 800 combined with Beck and Faces. Though I'm sure one of the 3 constant members of the Stones would have beat him out with their 2,100+ shows.

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 KZbin!! Cynthia Allen-McLaglen

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.

Pony Trekker Mick Jagger did say back then Blackmore was the best guitarist he ever heard. Page/Clapton/Beck are certainly the most marketed guitarists ever.

Berni certainly page beck Clapton are the most marketed guitarists but not necessarily the best. Blackmore? Iommi? And probably one of the most underrated and not often mentioned the great Alvin Lee

yes, there was a lot of ambition as Ronnie says..to get out of poverty, or the social class one was born into (discrimination has always been with us) .... a lot of class struggle in a society which closely observed it...picking up the pieces after a world war that had a devastating effect on the working class who fought it...the opportunities kids have today are taken for granted by them...with this generation it was the factory, the coal mine, shipbuilding in locations where the sun never shone, the construction site, or Australia or Canada...- not very pleasant prospects in the least. What can a poor boy do, but play in a rock' n' roll band, or on a soccer team ..and that was about it...

Thank god (ahem!) they mentioned Peter Green..... often overlooked among his 'peers' - not by of course. Fabulous player whose demons got the better of him. Saw him live a few years ago at a small venue. Best £18 I've spent on a Saturday night in a LONG time, before or since I think hehe.

I rank Ronnie’s accomplishments by the number and variety of great musicians who’ve had him along to support them. He’s never been a pure virtuoso or memorably inventive soloist, but man, he brings his “A” game to many different genres and styles. Plus, he must be a wonderful chap to be around ... upbeat, flexible.

Met Ronnie and sort of got to know him (prior to sobriety) as my fiance was babysitting Ronnie's kids and working at his club in South Beach. He's a great dude. Bobby Keys was my drinking buddy at the club, was one of the nicest people ever. Wish he still had that club

I love listening to interviews with the musicians who were around England at that time. I'm a 60 year old guitarist from Washington state, so of course I'm a huge Hendrix fan. Many years ago I formed the opinion that when Jimi went to London he ended up in exactly the place he needed to be, around the people he needed to be around in order to rise as high as he did . Ronnie Wood is an amazing musician in his own right, as are all the musicians from that area and time frame.
