I've always loved Rod Stewart, and enjoyed this collection. It was especially interesting to hear Stewart's rendition of "It's A Heartache ," because when Bonnie Tyler's original version of that song came out, her voice was compared to Rod Stewart's. The only real complaint I have is that most of the songs are given very similar arrangements to their original versions. I've heard other cover songs performed by Stewart during his career which he made his own. Not so much here.

Yes, he still has the great voice, but the song selection is questionable. Why in the world would he cover, It's A Heartache, which was a bad Rod imitation as done by Bonnie Tyler? Still The Same is not even a good Bob Seger song. Even on the better songs, Fogerty's Have You Ever Seen The Rain and Bread's Everything I Own, pedestrian arrangements ensure nothing special happens. The Eagles' Best Of My Love and Badfinger's Day After Day are listenable, along with Fooled Around And Fell In Love. Remember when each of Rod's albums had a couple of great cover songs? I suggest you make a compilation disc of those tracks (Dylan's You've Been On My Mind, Temptations' I'm Losing You, Luther Ingram's If Loving You Is Wrong, etc.) and enjoy. Here you get the great voice, but that's all.Read full review
