Hi
I think the Rod Stewart albums are as good as the Stones at that era as long as Ron played on it.
I just saw Rod live in Paris and the concert missed true RnR
First Step (1970)
Long Player (1971)
A nod is as good as a wink ... to a blind horse (1971)*****
Ooh La La (1973)
Coast To Coast: Overture And Beginners (1974, live album)
An old raincoat won't ever let you down (The Rod Stewart album) 1969
Gasoline alley 1970 -
Every picture tells a story 1971 *****
Never a dull moment

Hello,
I am a big fan of those early Rod albums. He was able to develop a career as a solo artist that Mick could not.

I think they are Mick and Rod like to sides of the same coin, both are very good songwriters, they are both very inteligent businessman, they were also influenced by the same music.
Bye

Both made the right decision, Rod going solo and Jagger staying in a band.

I don't recall the Stones ever doing a Rod/Faces cover. But Rod/Faces did cover Street Fighting Man, It's All Over Now and Love In Vain shamelessly. And they famously use to play Get Yer Ya Yas Out before they went on stage in 1970 to vibe themselves up.

I believe the Stones also covered It's All Over Now as well though

A couple of nights ago I was listening to Rod live recordings. That box set from when he was still great. Then last night I was watching Uriah Heep and Deep Purple live sets ( don't hold it against me). And again it struck me that we, as Stones fans take Jagger's ad-libs, his wit, his talking for granted. But no one of the other lead singers even comes close at his command, and just plain content of ad libbing, rapping.
I hear these other guys, they sound lost, "Oh yeah" "I want everybody to clap your hands" -whoope do.

I don't really get what this implies as rod did some covers in the 60's and 70's that the stones covered in the 00's
