Mick Jagger & Ronnie Wood, The Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones' Mick & Ronnie take us through their lives and careers in ten songs, for a special edition of Tracks Of My Years, with Vernon Kay

Mick's song choices reveal the ramshackle way the band’s first songs were recorded, how he was destined to be a frontman, about meeting one of his heroes Muddy Waters, being excited to work with Paul McCartney on their new album, and the importance of Charlie Watts posthumously featuring on the record too.

Ronnie's choices bring him back to being inspired to learn to play music by his older brothers, self-teaching himself riffs by his heroes such as Chuck Berry, and how he joined the band in the mid-70s and used his house to record their songs. He also discusses the guitar part he wrote after hearing of Brian Wilson’s passing and his own memories of the late, great Charlie Watts.

With The Rolling Stones set to release their new album Foreign Tongues this summer, stand by for a revealing and often hilarious trip down memory lane.
