I support this too. But I did like that remake he did of that Isley Brothers song.
And we all know how I feel about remakes. I have a few exceptions though.

Truthfully, Rod is probably one of the few other than Perry who is qualified to do a soul album. You can hear a bunch of Sam Cooke in both of their vocal styles. That being said, I'd love to hear just one more original album of music by Rod Stewart. I can deal with cover albums for artists that use it as a stop-gap between releases, but when it's ALL that you release, I start losing interest fast. He keeps mentioning new material--I wish he would deliver on it.

Rod who?

Is that the guy that sounds like he has a rag stuck in his throat when he sings?

Rod won a Grammy award for his 2005 album, Stardust.

He has had numerous #1 singles and five #1 Albums.

Hot 100 Chart
Maggie May
Tonight's The night
Do Ya Think I'm Sexy
All For Love

Adult Contemporary Chart
Downtown Train
This Old heart Of Mine
Have I Told You Lately

#1 Albums
Every Picture Tells A Story
Footloose And Fancy Free
Blondes Have More Fun
Stardust
Still The Same

Label probly WANTS him to keep w/ the covers route...at least with the last one it was rock n roll covers not soul and not ballads or oldies...

His singing is not that bad, not great, not bad.

So, do you live in some type of bizarro world where Cain sounds good and Rod Stewart doesn't?
Life must suck there. I'm glad I live here.

Post was in jest, obviously. I grew up listening to Rod. I got a bit tired of him because my mom played his albums over and over and over.

His Grammy was for a Covers album so your supposition makes sense.

It does make sense. To those that want the new originals, the well will have to run dry on the covers first.

no surprise. The covers albums are selling, while his last few original albums didn't sell very well at all. It's a money thing. As a fan though, I'd like new material--for obvious reasons.

Well, Rod's always done his fair share of covers, but never as blatantly as this decade. His cover choices used to be (reasonably) inspired, and meant to balance and blend with his own songwriting. Now they're just picking a theme and recording the first dozen songs they come up with, and people are stupid enough to buy it. No wonder the music biz is fucked.

Oh I disagree. People don't create music. Music finds people. We'll always be biased to the first takes. Doesn't mean the seconds or thirds are bad...just a different interpretation. I for one would love to hear as many interpretations as possible of all music.

Don't we all have our own little details of different songs?
Wouldn't we all love to add or omit something from every song we've heard?

There's no such thing as a perfect song, just a preference.


later~

Last time Rod Steward was relevant to me anyways was in 1988 when "Out of Order" was released.

My wife is a big Rod fan!
Saw Rod in 94? On his unplugged tour, down in Biloxi. Rod puts on a great show!!!
