Rod: The Autobiography
£9.99
The long-awaited autobiography of one of rocks true megastars. Rod Stewart (aka Rod The Mod & to a very select few Dad) was born the working-class son of a Scottish plumber in North London. He was never as some stories later had it a professional footballer or a gravedigger though he did become a bit of a singer
- & a fairly good one at that. Rod started out in the early 1960s playing alongside acts like The Rolling Stones" before his distinctively raspy voice & natural onstage presence caught the eye of the iconic guitarist Jeff Beck. An often-interesting two year stint with Becks group paved the way into the angst-inducing (for the worlds hoteliers) five years with the Faces whose offstage antics with alcohol hotel rooms & groupies have become the stuff of legend. & during all this he found a spare moment to write " Maggie May" among a few others & launch a solo career that has seen him sell in excess of 200 million records be inducted into the Hall of Fame twice & play the worlds largest ever concert. Not bad as he says for a bloke with a frog in his throat. & then there is his not so private life: marriages divorces & affairs with some of the worlds most beautiful women
- Bond girls movie stars & supermodels
- a struggle with steroid dependency & a brush with cancer which very nearly saw it all slip away. Rods is an incredible life & here thrillingly & for the first time he tells the whole thing leaving no knickers under the bed. Joyously entertaining & at times deeply moving this is the remarkable story of a guy with one hell of a voice
- & one hell of a head of hair."
