The Rod Stewart Album is 'An Old Raincoat....'?

sonofstan, Wednesday, 20 October 2010 12:31 (fifteen years ago)

Yes, sorry. Was taking the list from a US discog: The Rod Stewart album was released in the UK as An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down

I voted for Long Player - but listening to An Old Raincoat now and having second thoughts.

EPTAS, but it could easily be Gasoline Alley.

Those albums represent his most distinctive work, but I don't at all mind the fused-rhythm he and occasional bottleneck solo he essays on Stones records (and he sounds venomous on Dirty Work, on which he receives substantial writing credit).

*he fused-rhythm stuff he and Keef attempted

I looked at this list of albums before any of the posts. I was all set to say, "Why are you voting for all these Rolling Stones albums over pantheon Rod Stewart?" Never mind. Every Picture Tells a Story over A Nod Is As Good As a Wink to a Blind Horse (which is toss-up with Gasoline Alley...I'm thinking about how great "That's All You Need" is).

i'll have to track down that birds thing--never heard of it

It's pretty great. Usually $5-6 on Amazon. And I voted for it.

It's live, so it wouldn't qualify for the poll, but my favorite is Wood with Bo Diddley- Live At The Ritz. Rough and tumble rock'n'roll.

seven years pass...

No thread for his own albums that I can see...A friend posted a song on FB a few weeks ago, so I downloaded (sorry, Ronnie--too expensive on Amazon) I've Got My Own Album to Do and Now Look and have been listening to them in the car. Good stuff--"Far East Man" is great '70s fare.

Didn't even realize that's a George Harrison song...

I posted this upthread but it got scrubbed by the c0dex0rz:

That's my other favourite song on the first album.

clemenza, Friday, 8 May 2020 00:28 (six years ago)

Wow, did not realize those CDs had gotten that expensive. Got both of those direct from Amazon (along with Gimme Some Neck) for something like <$25 five or six years ago.

What led me to these two albums was a friend posting "Cancel Everything" on FB for the COVID connection. I was playing the second album in the car today, and I think my favourite song is "Breathe on Me."

Ronnie Wood: prophet of the pandemic.

^^Revisiting Gimme Some Neck, and it's got songs called "Infekshun", "Buried Alive", and a hot version of Dylan's "Seven Days" ('...all I've got to do is survive').
