Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has posted on Instagram about working with The Rolling Stones, and how Keith Richards gave him champagne as a reward after recording.
“#OnThisDay in 1986, ‘One Hit (To the Body)’ was released on The Rolling Stones’ Dirty Work album. ⠀⠀
@ronniewood had got in touch with me while I was staying at the Plaza Hotel in New York and invited me to come to the studio and lay down some guitar on a track of @officialkeef. I was really up for this idea as I had done some studio work before on a track playing with Keith at Ronnie’s studio at The Wick in Richmond, England.
⠀⠀
Actually, the session was not for Keith’s album, it was for @therollingstones, and I overdubbed a number of solos over the track. I think it worked out pretty good. Keith kindly sent me a magnum of champagne after the session.

👄⚡️.”
The Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards discussed having a ‘little irritation’ with bandmate Mick Jagger in a new Rolling Stone interview.
“What I was happy about was that I could step out of the Stones and just as easily step back in. But I learned a lot about being a frontman. I appreciated it a lot more — Mick’s angle on things — onstage especially. It widened my perspective of what everybody has to do in a band. It gave me more respect for the frontman.”
“You realize that you’re it all the time; you don’t stop. With the Stones, I’m in a beautiful position of being able to go forward whenever I feel like it, or just hunker down with the band and the groove. I have choices. The frontman has no choice.”
