 Great! Sep 15, 2009
The CD was like new, still in the wrapper. It arrived quickly. I would absolutely purchase from this seller again.
Gotta luv it Mar 12, 2009
I have thought several times that Rod Stewart's voice wasn't always quite right for some of these songs, comparing him to Sinatra, for example. But I was so totally drawn to listen, and find myself playing them over and over. However, I recently took a road trip with my 87 year old mother, a die-hard Sinatra fan and a certified member of the generation that these songs inspired. I put this cd on, sort of apologizing that his voice might not be the smooth style she was used to, and she listened quietly for several numbers. Soon she asked me who was singing and I told her it was a rock and roll singer by the name of Rod Stewart. I told her that I heard Rod in an interview say that he used to warm up for his rock concerts by singing these tunes. She smiled and said that she could tell that he truly loves these songs by the way he sang them, and that she thought his style was absolutely fantastic. She wanted to know where she could buy the cd we were listening to, and added that she felt he has a "great career" ahead of him! HA! Well, I am totally in love with the Rod Stewart classics - all the albums he has created have really meant so much to me. And now here is my elderly mother asking me to order them for her! I am also a fan of Frank, Nat, Dean, and many of the kings of that style of music, and I think that Rod stands tall among them. He commands a beautiful orchestration and production of these songs, and he sings them with feeling and respect for the timelessness of their appeal. Anyone who pans him for singing these is just a romanticless soul and/or really needs to sit down and shut up. I appreciate every note. And Rod now has a new fan - my mother!

I love the classics and Rod Stewart so when the two are combined - perfect!! Great music to have in the background over dinner.
