Guitarist Ron Wood has been a fellow member of several "classical" British john Rock outfits, simply the one that he's doubtless well-nigh associated with is the Rolling Stones, with whom he's been a fellow member since 1976. Born on June 1, 1947, in Hillingdon, London, Wood made his first gear appearance on record during the late '60s, as a appendage of the oft-overlooked mod kit the Creation (Wood only appeared on a handful of singles, gathered years later on the compilation Nail Collection, Vol. 1: Making Time). Immediately afterward his rent from the Creation, Wood was invited to play sea bass in the Jeff Beck Group, a band that too included a then-unknown Rod Stewart on vocals. Despite high hopes for the group (they're much credited as ane of the founders of hard rock/heavy metal), the band only managed to publication a geminate of classical recordings, 1968's Accuracy and 1969's Beck-Ola, earlier splitting up just now prior to an appearance at the fabled Woodstock festival. Wood and Stewart opted to stick in concert, as they joined the Small Faces the same class (with Wood reverting back to the six-string).


Cathartic one record album under the Small Faces' name, 1970's First gear Step, the mathematical group then sawed-off their name simply to the Faces and before long after became one of rock's virtually notoriously party-hearty outfits of the eRA (influencing such future punk outfits as the Sex Pistols and the Replacements, among others). Further albums followed (1971's Long Player and A Nod Is as Good as a Wink...to a Blind Horse, plus 1973's Ooh La La), before the group rent up in 1975. Wood as well establish the time to outcome a string of solo releases during the mid-'70s: 1974's I've Got My Own Album to Do, 1975's Now Look, and a coaction with ex-Faces bandmate Ronnie Lane, 1976's Mahoney's Last Stand, but this earned run average of Wood's career is best-remembered for his enlistment into the Rolling Stones.


With the exit of Mick Taylor in 1974, the Stones began auditioning switch guitarists, simply all along, innovation Stones guitar player Keith Richards knew that Wood (a longtime acquaintance) was the man for the job. Wood contributed to half of the Stones' 1976 record album, Black and Blue, before becoming a full-time member and appearance on 1977's Honey You Live and 1978's Some Girls. Although the Stones didn't issue any albums during 1979, the year was a busy ane for Wood, as he issued his fourth solo discharge, Gimme Some Neck, and toured alongside Richards in a one-off english band, the New Barbarians. Wood and the Stones conquered the charts erst more in the early '80s, with such hits as 1980's Emotional Rescue and 1981's Tattoo You, but tensions between Richards and Mick Jagger caused the mathematical group to not tour the U.S. betwixt 1982-1988, while only managing to outcome a geminate of spotty studio albums (1983's Surreptitious and 1986's Dirty Work).


During this clip, Wood issued such farther solo albums as 1981's 1234 and 1988's Live at the Ritz (the latter a collaboration with Bo Diddley), and became an greedy puma. Jagger and Richards eventually buried the tomahawk by the late '80s, as the Stones periodically issued new studio apartment albums and toured from 1989 forward (1989's Steel Wheels, 1994's Hoodooism Lounge, 1997's Harry Bridges to Babylon, etc.). Wood has continued to issue solo recordings throughout the '90s and beyond (1992's Lantern slide on This, 1994's Slide on Live: Plugged in and Standing, plus a pair in 2002, Not for Beginners and Live at Electric Ladyland). Additionally, Wood has guested on infinite recordings by other artists all over the days, including albums by the Band, David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Donovan, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, B.B. King, and his old brother Rod Stewart, with whom he taped a popular edition of MTV's Unplugged in 1993, resulting in the strike record album Unplugged...and Seated.
