From his first album release in 1969 called An Old Raincoat Won’t Let You Down until today Rod Stewart has had a place in the heart of music lovers in the UK and all over the world. So here is a Rod Stewart Albums List so you can see how prolific he has been over the years.
My own personal favourite albums from Rod are from early in his career. Every Picture Tells a Story and Never a Dull Moment were for me classic albums. I am showing my age by telling you I bought these albums when I was about 16 years old.

If you get a minute could you please pop over to my Facebook Page and join us. I plan to build this page this year as I have more time on my hands since retiring. I am trying to get people to share their favourite 70s music. As you know we do not all like the same songs and it would be great to hear page members favourite 70s songs. I hope to see you there soon.
Thanks For Visiting Today. Make sure you come back as I build the site, leave a comment below if there is any singer or group you think I should add to the site.
