“I said, ‘If you let me borrow one for tonight, I promise I’ll come back.’ I didn’t go back until 5 or 6 years later”: The Rolling Stones legend who stole his first guitar

Ronnie Wood.

Ronnie Wood may have plenty in his bank account today, but the Rolling Stones legend and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has revealed that he stole his first bass guitar.

Wood rose through the ranks with the Birds, later joining Jeff Beck’s band – where he played bass – before forming the Faces in 1969, and eventually replacing Mick Taylor in the Rolling Stones. He’s been with the group for almost a staggering 50 years.
