69. EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY-ROD STEWART (1971)
45 years later and counting, and Rod has never made another album close to being as good as this one, to my ears anyway.. Mixing folk and country
elements on the mellower material with some basic rockers, it's consistently good listening with good variety. With each album
following, Rod's music got more and more flash and image. Yes, he's made some good music since this album, but there have been
too many "Tonight's The Night"'s and not enough "Reason To Believe"'s.
