Rod Stewart Live, Private, Backstage - Photos 1970-1980

The musician Rod Stewart had all it takes to be a superstar. His songs touched a nerve, and his stage show was wild - he flung the mike around like a skipping rope, his performance was breathtaking. He even made it big in America, all it took was the mega hit Sailing. In the 70s he was the perfect teen pin-up with his extreme hair, kinky clothing, rebellious rock musik, great charisma and on top of all that an unmistakable grating voice. His style worked out - the world's most beautiful women fell for him head over heels, and songs like Maggie May, Sailing, Da Ya Think I'm Sexy can hardly be forgotten.. This book follows Rod Stewart from his breakthrough in England all the way to the top of the international music scene. From humble beginnings, Rod Stewart's career continues to soar. In 1994 he received the American Music Award for his life's work. In 2004 he published a new album: Stardust - The Great American Songbook III, it went straight to the top of the American charts. The last time he'd been up there with one of his songs was 25 years earlier with the album Blondes Have More Fun.
