Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood is engaged to marry Sally Humphreys, a 34-year-old theater producer.

Wood split from his second wife, Jo Wood, in 2008. A collection of memorabilia and artwork owned by the couple was recently auctioned off as part of their divorce settlement, which was finalized in 2011. Jo Wood's memoir, which will include tales about her marriage to the guitarist, is set to hit shelves next February.

The Stones recently played their first live show since 2007, a gig at La Trabendo in Paris to warm up for their upcoming 50th anniversary shows in London and Newark, New Jersey. Fan-shot footage from the Paris show recently surfaced as well, which you can check out here.

Song Stories

“Tonight's the Night”

The Shirelles | 1960

The lead cut and title track from this girl group's debut album, "Tonight's the Night" was written by 19-year-old bandmember Shirley Owens, who sings lead, and producer Luther Dixon. The band from Passaic, New Jersey met in high school, first calling themselves the Pequellos. The song's frank thoughts about sexual and emotional surrender was racy for the time, but that didn't stop the Chiffons from cutting a similar version immediately after the original came out. "We were the first female group to write some of our own material," band member Beverly Lee recalls. "We did have some say-so in our writing."
