Rod Stewart

by Geoffrey Giuliano

Published 18 November 1993
From his salt of the earth roots to his days as a low-level soccer player, gravedigger and fence mender to his two-decade solo career of Top Ten hits, the author explores Rod Stewart's career and personal life. The rocker's dark side, his self-admitted fear of failure is described as a double-edged sword that both drives him on to success yet holds him back from exploring new musical territory. From Stewart's early days with The Jeff Beck Group and The Faces to his current hits; to the women in his life, including Britt Eckland and Alana Hamilton, to interviews with Ginger Barker and Ronnie Wood, Giuliano aims to present the definitive account of Stewart's life and times.
