Rod Stewart Music Release
The Rod Stewart Sessions 1971-1998. The four-disc set contains 63 tracks from throughout Stewart's career including alternate versions and previously unheard songs. The album will be out on September 29.Here is what Warner Bros Says:
More than a third of THE ROD STEWART SESSIONS 1971-1998 chronicles the torrent of indelible recordings Stewart unleashed during the ’70s. Fittingly, the set opens with a decidedly rough take of Maggie May, the #1 hit from Stewart’s third solo album–Every Picture Tells A Story–that broke him as a solo artist in 1971. SESSIONS offers alternate versions of well-known hits from that era such as Sailing, Tonight’s The Night (Gonna Be Alright), You Wear It Well, and an acoustic version of You’re In My Heart (The Final Acclaim). Alongside those are rarities like the unfinished Think I’ll Pack My Bags (which later appeared on Ron Wood’s solo debut rewritten as Mystifies Me), an early version of So Tired that finds the band working out the arrangement in the studio, and an acoustic version of the B-side Rosie. Of special note is the rumored-to-exist but never heard—until now—sequel to The Killing of Georgie; Innocent (The Killing of Georgie Part III) completes the epic narrative begun on 1976's A Night On The Town album with a ferociously rocking performance taken from the sessions for the following year's Foot Loose & Fancy Free. Stewart ended the decade with a hits package that was to include his cover of British pub-rocker Frankie Miller’s When I’m Away From You that has remained unreleased until now.
SESSIONS touches on six albums Stewart released during the ’80s, including Foolish Behaviour (1980), which was originally intended to be a double album, but was eventually scaled back to a single disc. Along with an early version of the album track Oh God, I Wish I Was Home Tonight the collection also features four unreleased tracks presumably destined for the second disc Time Of My Life, TV Mama, Stupid, and Buddy Holly’s Maybe Baby. While the multitracks for Tonight I’m Yours (1981) have gone missing, the producers managed to recover an unreleased song called Thunderbird from the session’s only surviving mixdown tape. The collection closes out the decade with several tracks from Out Of Order (1988), including a tender reading of Forever Young that features Stewart accompanied only by a piano and the improvised in the studio and then abandoned I Go To Jail For You.
The final SESSIONS disc is dedicated to Stewart’s resurgence as an artistic and commercial force in the ’90s. It begins with six songs recorded in the summer of 1992 that were shelved in favor of Unplugged…And Seated, including a cover of Bob Dylan and The Band’s This Wheel’s On Fire, and an all-star remake of the 1969 Python Lee Jackson song (originally also sung by Rod) In A Broken Dream, which features Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour and Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones. Also included is Stewart’s cover of Bobby Womack’s Looking For A Love, which was surprisingly left off A Spanner In The Works (1995) and a version of Oasis’ Rockin’ Chair that he recorded for When We Were The New Boys (1998).
