RONNIE WOOD, Original handwritten draft of the lyrics to the song

A handwritten sheet attributed to Ronnie Wood (born 1947), guitarist with the Rolling Stones since 1975 and former member of the Faces, containing the working lyrics for a composition entitled ‘Will He Take a Shine to You?’. The document features several handwritten verses, alternative phrasing and a musical annotation specifying the structure of an eight-bar instrumental passage as well as the proposed chords. This combination of lyrics and arrangement notes provides a direct insight into the musician’s compositional process. The provenance of the document is traced through a signed statement by Dave Simpson, indicating that he acquired it from the Compton Cassey Gallery, which is said to have obtained it directly from Jamie Wood, the musician’s adopted son. It is accompanied by a certificate drawn up on 4 May 2011 by Jonathan Poole, then director of the Compton Cassey Gallery, identifying, amongst other things, the manuscript *Will He Take a Shine to You?* as one of the song lyrics attributed to Ronnie Wood. An Aguttes certificate is enclosed. Dimensions: 30 x 21 cm.
