Rod Stewart

It Had to Be You... The Great American Songbook

Eh, no.

Review Score: (2/10)
If you like Rod Stewart because of this wretched record, you most likely have never heard him before. This is a terrible waste of a voice, which is ill-suited to the material. Horrid arrangements too. The simple fact he's selling this thing on TV as if it was a juicer or a boflex proves this a "Rod Needs Cash" grab. Avoid this. I mean, when Frank Sinatra cd's are still in print, why would anyone else be stupid enough to record this material?

Rod, reform the Faces and rock. Thats why you were put on this earth.

BTW, if you want to hear why some people love Rod (and they should) pick up the new complilation "Reason to Believe". Incredible stuff...
