Had he not taken a detour through the lameness prior to this (Do ya think I'm sexy, etc.), it might have been easier to appreciate this more.
As it stands, it lacks the heart and soul, and comes across as a spoof and/or a misguided attempt to get back to where he once belonged.

Bless Rod, he'd love to be Mick, i've always thought that but it makes me cringe when he comes on all Jaggery.

whats funny is one, do ya think i'm sexy was a spoof and two thats the only real disco tune on that album.
Aye Hot Legs is brilliant in a Stonesy sort of way.Quote

rod catches too much flack. if he had released music just from 1967-1977 he would be more of a legend and in that 10 year span he released as many great albums as the stones have released in a 50+ year career. most people on herewill tell you the stones have at max 9 great albums. in that 10 year span rod released 2 great albums with beck, 3 with the faces and 5 or 6 solo. again these are great albums not total albums released.

A mediocre, upbeat rock tune. Nothing to get upset (or over the moon) about.
Stones influences? Only for hardcore conspiratorists like us

Hey,
They all took the disco turn or at least the 4 on the floor beat:
Rolling Stones - Miss You
Rod Stewart - Do Ya Think I'm Sexy
The Kinks - Superman
Pink Floyd (Yuk!) - Another Brick In The Wall
Queen - Another One Bites The Dust
Kiss - I Was Made For Loving You
etc.
Two exceptions: Led Zeppelin and The Who.
The questions is: were they sticking to their M.O. or
where they not capable of keeping up with the times...meaning...
they didn't have a 4 on the floor song in them...good question?
I think the Stones did it best...Miss You wasn't cheesy
and it still stands the test of time.
