The Ronnie Wood Show with special guest Pattie Boyd
SkyArts1, Broadcast 27th April 2012
For the last episode of his laid-back music series, Ronnie Wood welcomes old flame Pattie Boyd
Top artists join Ronnie Wood for impromptu jamming, lively chat and a chance to reminisce
about the wild days of rock'n'roll
In the early Seventies when Ronnie had a brief fling with Pattie,
the former Mary Quant model's marriage to George Harrison was crumbling and they went on to split the following year.
A decade later, she married Eric Clapton, who had been in love with her for years
and written his 1970 song Layla about her.
They too would break up a few years later, reportedly because Clapton refused to seek help for his alcoholism.
Now, the model on which Twiggy claims she based her
look when she began modelling in 1966 has proved herself as a successful photographer and author.
Her revealing autobiography, Wonderful Today: George Harrison, Eric Clapton,
and Me debuted at the top of the New York Bestsellers List, while her photographs
have been exhibited all over the world.
Here, she and Wood look back at the wild years of the 1960s and the 70s,
while listening to some of their favourite and most nostalgic hits.
