Biography

"I suppose you could use the word 'addiction,'" says Rod Stewart, explaining his relationship to the classic pop standards of his "Great American Songbook" series. "I'm totally addicted to these songs. They're just so great to sing—if you fancy yourself even a bit of a singer, these songs are like chocolate."

So once again, Stewart has returned to the territory that has defined the last decade of… Read more in Amazon's Rod Stewart Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid rock album, February 23, 2004

This review is from: Smiler (Audio CD)
So many bad reviews have been written about this album, that I had to buy it and find out the truth. I must say that most of the reviews are wrong. This is a very solid early 1970's rock cd. If you like the Faces and the Mercury era Rod albums, you'll have to have this to complete the collection. It isn't as great as Gasoline Alley, but pretty close. This is a fun, loud, last fling record for the Stewart/Wood/ partnership. That is why it is valuable. Rod never sounded this way after leaving Ron Wood and the rest of the Faces....Kenny Jones and Ian McClagen. Great version of Sweet little rock and roller.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Fine Stewart Effort, February 1, 2001
By 
"big-duck" (Tarzana, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Smiler (Audio CD)
A nice remaster of a very good album. Notable that it contains the only collaboration between Rod and Paul McCartney to date on the final, McCartney-penned track, "Mine for Me." McCartney also sings beautiful background vocals on this fine tune. The rocking "Let Me Be Your Car" was written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin. The only downfall is that the CD has no bonus tracks - rare for a classic reissue.

5.0 out of 5 stars ROCKIN RODNEY, October 1, 2002
By 
Mikael Wistrom (KNIVSTA - SWEDEN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Smiler (Audio CD)
This is the way Rod should sound! It kicks of with a blistering Sweet little rock'n roller. Farewell a classic song but a small hit when this album first was realeased in 1974. Every nano second on this CD is worth the price. It Rocks and it swings and the ballads are filled with soul. Ron Wood on bass and guitar, original songs by Paul McCartney (Mine for me) and Elton John who also guests on his effort- A thundering Let me be your car. this album should please anyone whose into Rod-Faces-Stones-Elton.........GREAT
