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

It's not how fast you play, it's how high you can get your hair.

and on the flip side...

Budgie - Very Best of...

If you're not familiar with Budgie, they are the earliest heavy metal band for it's time. The precursor to bands like Metallica and Black Sabbath. The local radio use to play just the one song, Sky High Percentage, which is good, but they have so much more and  I pretty much followed them on their output. I break these guys out about twice a year to get my does of metal. I saw them play in a club one night with girlfriend who was gracious enough to put up with the noise. Almost got into a fight too.  ???

Despite little impact in America with popularity, several bands today are influenced by the likes of Budgie. Metallica, Van Halen






and my favorite is actually somewhat a ballad, with great guitar work.
