Music reviews of The Very Best of Rod Stewart

Music Review: A nice overview of what Rod Stewart has to offer
Rating: 4 Stars

Rod Stewart has been performing and singing many great songs for over 30 years. From his days with The Faces ("Ooh La La") to his big breakthrough hits (such as "Maggie May"), to his many other well established hits ("My Heart Can't Tell You No", "Forever Young", etc.), The Very Best of Rod Stewart is an album that offers a great deal for casual fans who want a nice overview of Rod Stewart's spectacular career.

Of course, after 30 years of success, there's no way to put all of an artist's memorable hits onto one album. This certainly holds true in this case. Many of Rod's best hits such as "Love Touch," "Lost in You", "Infatuation," "Faith of the Heart," "All For Love", and many others are nowhere to be seen.

But that certainly doesn't mean that the album isn't worth getting. It has everything from timeless Rod Stewart ("Maggie May"), upbeat tracks ("Young Turks"), great low-key songs ("Downtown Train", "Have I Told You Lately") and everything in-between ("Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and "Hot Legs").

The booklet includes a bunch of photos ranging from Rod's childhood, to his goofy antics, pictures of many of his album covers, and many from concerts. It also tells what album and which year each song came from.

To make it short, The Very Best of Rod Stewart doesn't contain all of his very best, but it is a great overview of his stellar career in the music business. If you're looking for a good collection of some of Rod Stewart's best without buying each of his albums separately and you're not really wanting to shuffle out all the cash for his Storyteller Anthology, then this album is definitely for you!

Description of The Very Best of Rod Stewart

Import two CD set from Rod Stewart, the definitive collection by this Rock 'N' Roll legend! Rod began his career in the '60s as a Blues singer and session vocalist but achieved wider fame when he fronted The Faces in the early '70s while also dabbling in a solo career. Features a total of 34 tracks beginning with early solo hits like 'Maggie May' and takes in practically every international hit up through the '90s (just prior to his American Songbook series). Includes great tracks like 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?', 'Hot Legs', 'Some Guys Have All The Luck', 'Baby Jane', 'Tonight I'm Yours', 'Sailing', 'The First Cut Is The Deepest', 'Stay With Me' and 'I Was Only Joking'. Warner. 2001.
Rod Stewart's career has been subject to so many twists that a single-disc overview is somehow both appealingly broad and inadequate to the task of tracing all those zigzags. From beloved rocker of the first order to disco dilettante to pop crooner, Stewart's career has presented challenges to fans who may have been charmed by the rollickingly randy "Maggie May" and bemused by the alarmingly narcissistic "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" This 16-song retrospective touches all the bases without delving deeply into any era. The selections aren't arranged sequentially and the booklet is much more generous with vintage photos than album credits. This best-of collection is clearly aimed at the casual fan, but no album that presents Rod the Mod gems "Downtown Train," "You Wear It Well," and "Reason to Believe" one after another is a throwaway. --Steven Stolder
