sounds of the 70s with Rod Sewart on BBC Radio 2 and Sounds of the Seventies with Johnnie Walker Sir Rod Stewart shares his favourite 70s tracks and memories of the decade, in this, his 50th year as a signed solo artist.
At the start of the decade, Rod had just been signed as a solo artist, and had joined the Faces with Ronnie Wood who he had played with in Jeff Beck's band in the late 60s. They released their debut album in early 1970 and quickly earned a reputation as a brilliant live band. Stewart continued to release solo material but it wasn't until 1971 that he became a household name when "Maggie May" - initially released as a B-side to a single taken from the album Every Picture Tells A Story - started receiving rapturous radio play.
