Essential Albums
- Rod Stewart aimed for hips and hearts on this 1977 album. Opening track “Hot Legs” has grinding guitars that you feel in your pelvis and lyrics that are all licked lips and arched eyebrows. But he soon turns in two of his finest ballads: “I Was Only Joking” examines his past over a lovely descending melody, while “You’re In My Heart (The Final Acclaim)” is a stirring tribute to former girlfriend Britt Ekland, with Stewart cheekily ranking her above his favorite football teams.
- Rod Stewart perfectly displays two sides of his musical personality on this 1976 album. The first half contains some of his most heartfelt ballads, including the lush and lusty “Tonight’s the Night (Gonna Be Alright)” and the ambitious Dylan-esque storytelling of “The Killing of Georgie, Pts. 1 & 2.” Stewart pulls out all the stops on the back half, letting loose that belting rasp on gritty rockers “Pretty Flamingo” and “The Wild Side of Life,” recalling his days with the Faces.

About Rod Stewart
Rod Stewart has been lauded as the finest singer of his generation; he's written songs that turned into modern standards, sung with the Faces, and had massive commercial success. He's one of rock & roll's best interpretive singers, as well as an innovative songwriter whose work created a raw, loose, and charming combination of folk, rock, blues, and country. After becoming successful, he started to lose the rootsier elements of his music, adapting his style to suit the times, leading to smash hits in the disco, new wave, and MTV eras. Stewart eased into his status as a veteran singer by releasing a series of albums where he crooned The Great American Songbook, but returned to original material with 2013's Time. It began another act for the rocker, but he still offered retro material on occasion, as when he teamed with boogie woogie pianist Jools Holland on 2024's Swing Fever.
