      Stewart rules because he didn't insist on being a rock dinosaur all through the 80s, 90s and beyond. He even tried to sing the Great American songbook, a little beyond his ability, but at least he never stayed static.

    Funny story about Rod and his model railroad hobby. There's a guy in the next town over from me (friend of a friend) who is a world renowned (in the hobby) model railroader. Several years ago when Rod was on tour, he paid a visit to see the guy's layout. The gentleman said he felt like the Rockstar talking to Rod. He spent so much time there that his manager practically had to drag him out so he wouldn't be late for his show!

    Apologies if it's been mentioned previously but the A$AP ROCKY track at the beginning is a sample from the song 'In A Broken Dream' by 'Python Lee Jackson'. They were an Australian band that went to the UK to find fame and fortune, during which time they recorded this song with session singer Rod Stewart. This was in 1969 and the song was never released. Cue success for Rod with Maggie May in 1971 and clever record company release In a Broken Dream to tag onto his popularity. Made no. 3 in the UK charts.

    When I was 15, I got hooked into the "Record of the Month" club. They sent me Jeff Beck's "Truth" album. When I heard, "I Ain't Superstitious", my head whipped around and I yelled, "Who's that!!!" The day I fell in love with Rod. The poster from Every Picture Tells a Story remained on my wall for years! (nice butt pic). I'm 67 now and still listen all the time. At 76, he's still singing and has over 2 million subscribers to his TH-cam channel. He went through serious throat cancer surgery and eventually was able to sing again after 9 months. That did not give him his rasp, it comes naturally. He's an amazing songwriter. People dump on him because he changed but he brilliantly reinvented himself with every decade. He's an amazing artist, who does equally well on covers as he does on his own body of work and has sold over 250 million albums. I just recently found, "Kiss Her for Me" by Rod and Frankie Miller who wrote the song and flipped out. Would melt the hardest heart. My favorite live performance? Willie Dixon's, "I Just Wanna Make Love to You". th-cam.com/video/Ip1uCCbpAY0/w-d-xo.html. Jim Cregan, Billy Peek, Carmine Appice, Phil Chen, Kevin Savigar and Gary Grainger. A great band on his Blondes Have More Fun tour. Worth a watch for any Rod fan! He's a father of 8 kids, going back on tour in a few months and my favorite Scot.
