5.0 out of 5 stars The best available Rod Stewart album, September 6, 2000

This review is from: Rod Stewart: The Mercury Anthology (Audio CD)

Rod Stewart recorded most of his best work for Mercury records in the early 1970s before he turned his back on his folk-rock roots and unfortunately became a sex symbol. This album contains all of the great material from his first half dozen or so albums. Plenty of gems abound, including "Maggie May," "Handbags and Gladrags," "Gasoline Alley," "Mandolin Wind," "Reason to Believe" and many more. I would give this disc the nod over the box set "Downtown Train," if only because I find Stewart's later material so maddeningly inconsistent.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the essence of Rod Stewart., August 5, 1998

This review is from: Rod Stewart: The Mercury Anthology (Audio CD)

If the listener is a new Rod Stewart fan, this CD is a wonderful compilation of his talent. If you are a fan from the beginning, as I am, this CD fills the soul and brings a tear to the eye. This is soulful, heart felt music and Rod at his best!

Great selection and great sound but prospective buyers should be aware that if you buy the set in the "fat boy" cd case the notes/booklet as in the photo above will not be included.
