January 10-Rod Stewart's birthday

[Fun For All]

He's 76 today...long history of blonde women in his life.

Here is a very early song from 1965 when Rod was singing with Long John Baldry's Steam Packet along with Julie Driscoll and Brian Auger.

His early stuff is some of the best Rock there is. The raspiness of his voice back then helped

Is it true that Amy Belle is Stewart's daughter?

When he was in school, he sang lead vocals for a band that 2 brothers put together. The brothers were Ray and Dave Davies, later to become The Kinks.

I didn't know he was with Long John Baldry, Jeff Beck's Truth is one of my favorite albums.

On the flipside, did Rod Stewart break Peter Sellers heart when he hooked up with Britt Ekland? Sellers is a classic example of Asperger's, he was a fragile socially awkward man.

His cover was better than the Cat Stevens original.

Must have the same pot of gold dna as Mick Jagger. I remember Jay Leno talking about how he first went to LA in 1970 and was excited to see Rod's Ferrari parked on the street outside some club. Been a member of the billionaire boy's club for half a century.
