Clearly, Rod Stewart is one of rock's best vocalists. Unfortunately, you'd never know it from listening to this CD of pure drivel and sap. This is one of those excruciating projects where everything went wrong. The bad choice of material (not necessarily bad songs at all, just bad songs for Rod to sing), lackadaisical production, and indifferent vocals from Rod all add up to one of the worst listening experiences you'll ever endure if you decide you have to have it. The only positive purpose this CD could serve is as an interrogation tool, but it would probably violate the Geneva Convention rules against torture.
This is one of his best remake CD's. I love that he made this one and the Great American Songbook ones as well. I am personally waiting anxiously for him to make Still The Same II. And I would embrace ANY remake CD's that he wants to create and I'd pay for them without even needing to listen to samples first!!!! Rod Stewart truely rocks and hes' "Still the Same". Thanks Rod for more great music.
