“He tried it when he came in and he said ‘I can’t do it as good as you, Ronnie. You get back on the drums.’”: When Charlie Watts ceded the drums to Ronnie Wood on a Stones track

Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones accept the award for Album Of The Year: Public Vote for their album 'Blue & Lonesome'.

Ronnie Wood was given the honour of being the Desert Island Discs castaway this weekend just gone.

Though he’s best known as a guitarist, the 78-year-old Rolling Stone is competent on a number of instruments. Indeed, he told host Lauren Laverne that he started on the drums.
