I find it to be the least satisfying of Ronnie's albums. The songs don't really go anywhere, and his voice is pretty shot.
I'll take Gimme Some Neck (despite the production values), I've Got My Own Album to Do, and Slide on This over 1234.

what do you think Bob sees in ron? Why do they seem to get along, when I could imagine him being irritated by ron's impishness?

I would *guess* that Bob is relieved by playing with a musician that doesn't seem to be too nervous around Bob....like other musicians who might give the impression that they want to *ask Bob about a lot but don't dare to.*
...Ronnie, would probably be easy to have around, for Bob
And also; he doesn't "steal the show" with the guitar-playing; Ronnie's good at changing between rythm and little licks; without changing the sound of the band too much - or sounding too prominent.

Ronnie has a reputation with getting along with pretty much everyone. For all his shortcomings, if it wasnt for him, we might have been talking about the Stones in the past tense for the last twenty years or so.

twins, eh?... but yeah, I can see Erik's point that when ron is playing his licks, he does fit easily into the "thin wild mercury sound."
on the other hand, have you seen the video of Dylan's show in Hyde Park in I believe 1996? ron sits in but looks absolutely lost the whole time!
