"Sing It Again Rod" is Rod Stewart's fifth album and first compilation album, released in 1973. The album is notable for its Peter Corriston-designed die-cut album sleeve (shaped like a highball glass, and through which a smiling Stewart can be seen).
Perhaps the best of Rod Stewart's early solo period apart from The Faces and post-Jeff Beck Group[both featuring future Rolling Stone Ron Wood on guitar and/or bass]. When first issued on vinyl in 1973, the cover was designed to resemble a whiskey glass with a picture of Rod himself imbedded inside the glass amidst the whiskey and ice.
It starts off with Stewart's rendering of Tim Hardin's "Reason To Believe (Find A Reason To Believe)", which is among the four songs culled from his 1971 album (and my personal favorite,) "Every Picture Tells A Story." The other three being "Mandolin Wind", "Maggie May" and "(I Know) I'm Losing You." I like his rendition of Elton John's "Country Comforts" as well as his takes on the Stones' "Street Fighting Man," The Who's "Pinball Wizard," Sam Cooke's "Twisting The Night Away" and Michael D'Abo's "Handbags And Gladrags," Let's not forget Rod could also write songs whether in collaboration or solely. His solely written song featured here is "Mandolin Wind". There were the two songs co-authored with Martin Quittenton, "Maggie May" and "You Wear It Well." Rounding out this compilation are the two co-compositions with Ron Wood, "Lost Paraguayos" and the title track of "Gasoline Alley". Of all the Rod Stewart compilations I prefer this one mainly because it's classic Rod of the early '70s before the songs most people associated him with later on.
