He might not be as familiar to some as his Rolling Stones bandmates, but Ronnie Wood is famous in his own right. He played with the Jeff Beck Group, was recruited to join The Faces, and recorded solo albums before he joined the Stones. The guitarist has a high opinion of his bandmate Keith Richards, but Wood’s first manager put him to work doing the same side job as famed blues musician Muddy Waters.
Ronnie Wood displayed a broad range of artistic talents as a child
Wood showed a range of artistic skills long before The Rolling Stones were even a band. He grew up in a household filled with music (his dad and brothers were talented musicians), and Wood followed suit. He started playing in bands as a teenager, gigging around his London neighborhood before branching out.
