Stewart Rod - Gasoline Alley

Fakta British singer-songwriter Rod Stewart with his second solo album, 'Gasoline Alley', continuing the standard he set for his first. He blends the album as he always did, with some of his own material impeccably interwoven with excellently chosen and performed covers. Stewart treats rock & roll songs like folk songs, reimagining them in individual, impulsive ways, resulting in interesting blends between style's and genre's. For instance, "It's All Over Now" becomes a loose-limbed rhythm instead of a tight R&B/blues groove, and "Cut Across Shorty" is based around a wailing, Mideastern violin instead of a rockabilly riff. It's an album that honors tradition while moving it into the present and never once does it renounce the past.
