Stones! Awesome! Ronnie Wood has a syndicated radio program that's great to listen to. He speaks softly and explains things well to those of us who don't play an instrument. He breaks down songs and tells you why they are so good. You walk away thinking, "wow, I've heard this song a million times but I never noticed that"
