Rod Stewart’s distinctive raspy singing voice, showmanship, and songwriting have kept him in the musical spotlight for over fifty years. Stewart came to prominence in the late 1960s and the early 1970s with The Jeff Beck Group, and then with Faces, though his music career began in 1962 when he took up busking with a harmonica. Jimbo and the Mickster just touch the tip of the iceberg in our first look at Rod’s career on this Songs You Should Know podcast. We discuss such songs as Maggie May, Tonight’s the Night, and Do Ya Think I’m Sexy, as well as a fewer lesser known details of Rod’s career.
