(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Full disclosure, my very first rock concert was Rod Stewart and Faces.. it was their last tour together in 1974... Ronnie Wood had already signed up with the Stones and recorded ‘Black and Blue with them... Hughes Stadium. Sacramento.
“It’s Late September and I Really Should be Back at School”
saw in last year in concert, it was very enjoyable.
I hope he’s Having a Party. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sihK5Rzv8iw
His Forever Young song is one of the best in Rock and Roll.
I got free tickets to his concert about three years ago. I probably wouldn’t have paid to see him, but his show was entertaining and apolitical (unlike Cyndi Lauper who was touring with him).
Tonight’s the night..................
I Ain’t Superstitious (Jeff Beck)

... aint nobody gonna stop us now...
He was moving to crooner in this period... also covered Cat Steven’s ‘First Cut is the Deepest’ around that time.
You Wear It Well...
Do you think he’s still sexy?
I liked Lauper’s songs...especially ‘She’s So Unusual..’ she does tend to be political. They are sort of an odd couple to be touring together.
Three favorite albums: A Nod is as Good as a Wink (Faces), Every Picture Tells a Story, and Gasoline Alley. Classic British Rock, with some folk mixed in. Beautiful music, and it transports me to a world long, long since passed.
Check out his HO-scale train layout sometime.
I never thought he was ‘sexy’... he thinks he is though...
Yep.. those three are classic... I also liked ‘Atlantic Crossing...’’Sing it Again Rod’ was a good compilation album.
Here’s a cover of one of his songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJACPfUU3nk
I mostly like his Jeff Beck stuff
My Husband loves him.I tried to get tickets for a concert for a Christmas present but he was on the west coast for 6 months and so I got Carrie Underwood,his girlfriend.Our 3 daughters are going with him so it should be fun.
