Yeah, but according to the same book Ronnie was first choice for guitarist for Led Zep too!!Quote

In Woody's book apparently Marriott was first choice.
I'll see if I can dig up a quote.

Has late Mick Ronson ever been considered? He did some great things with Ian Hunter.

I agree with you, but playing Devil's advocate he was also a safe choice. maybe even the glue that kept the Stones together pouring oil on troubled waters. A different guitarist (Ronno for example) would have brought a diferent sound and a different chemistry (probably quite literally).

Keeping Mick Taylor would have been an even better choice - for Mick Taylor anyway!

I am sure the Stones would have folded in '78. With Wood they where able to counter the punk attack, with Taylor they would have been stuck in the blues / glam rock period.
