nice Rod Stewart will always remind me of living with my dad after my parents got divorced I was in about.....4th grade and he had a TON of albums...but he was a big Rod Stewart fan and his voice was just amazing. I remember the covers too with Rod always looking so aristocratic and like....some shaggy haired, country club, bad boy./ Maybe an unruly rich kid rebelling against his wealthy and far more stuffy straight laced parents.
I recently got heavily into the EARLY Jeff Beck Rod Stewart stuff BIG time... if you haven't heard that it's really cool...I mean at that point their band was basically Led Zeppelin version 2 (or 1 how ever you want to see it) ...I mean in 1968-69 the path the two bands were on was IDENTICAL and Plant and Stewart had in some ways interchangeable voices as crazy as that might sound.
but it's true.
they did a lot of the same songs too....people always accuse Zeppelin of being thieves...but ALL bands did tons of covers or variations of standards, and many got recorded and presented without giving credit to the original artists...that just was a given....Zeppelin because of how popular they got....get's a black eye for it more than most though
