On Wednesday, August 15, 2018 from 8-9pm ET/5-6pm PT, AXS TV premiered the season finale of THE RONNIE WOOD SHOW, debuting back-to-back episodes:

Pattie Boyd (8pm ET/5pm PT): Ronnie Wood welcomes old flame Pattie Boyd. 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. Here, she and Wood look back at the wild years of the 1960s and the 70s, while listening to some of their favorite and most nostalgic hits.

Toots (8:30pm ET/5:30pm PT): The old friends kick things off with a little improvised jamming session before Ronnie chooses his first track, "Monkey Man," one of Toots' own from 1969. The pair may hail from different musical backgrounds but here in the studio it is clear that they share one thing in common: when they're playing and listening to music, it's all about having fun.
