Rod Stewart was very rude about Ray Jackson.
Let's face it the mandolin riff made the record and it was jacka who created the riff but Stewart was an **** over it.

Ray Jackson, the man who played  the mandolin on Maggie May — surely the most famous solo featuring that instrument  — was shabbily treated by Rod, going uncredited on the album and being paid just a stingy £15 for his work.
