Back in 1969, Rod Stewart-s resume included a stint as Jeff Beck-s singer. He-d also just joined the Faces, who dropped the -Small- from their name when Stewart and Ron Wood signed on as members. But his husky, graveled rasp shone best that year as he took on covers of the Rolling Stones- -Street Fighting Man- and Ewan McColl-s -Dirty Old Town- on his solo debut. As this three-CD set thoroughly demonstrates, Stewart was like Joe Cocker in that he crossed boundaries effortlessly, integrating a boozy, acoustic-backed sway with an R-B churn and creating a new rock sound that captured the fancy of fans on both sides of the Atlantic. He peaked with Every Picture Tells a Story-s title track; the folkie, soulful -Maggie May-; and the jaw-dropping -(I Know) I-m Losing You.- With those 1971 hits, he arrived full-blown as a sequin-ready superstar. His Mercury period ended in 1974 with Smiler, and this set trails off with that album and five tracks previously unreleased in the U.S.
