Back in the day when Top of the Charts artists still played their own instruments, could actually sing their songs, and they did it all without a computer in the room doing all the work for them!!
This song to me is so damn big. One of the greatest rock n roll songs. Turn it up til the speakers blow out. This and sunspot baby by bob seger 2 of the greatest rock n roll songs
This how rock should sound, it’s 5am & I’ve been playing Rod all night long Every time I try to get some sleep another gem of Rod’s comes up For me one of greatest rock star voices to come out of the UK
Folks who are grandmas & grandpas now were teenagers when the song. was released.... sooooo....they were rockin to it, before they had kids or grandkids 😄
I was 10 in 1977 and this song bring back memories. If there’s only a Time Machine to take me I’ll be the happiest man alive iam 56 today and still jam on it
Rod leaving the Faces was inevitable. What I could never understand is why he didn't put out more songs like this or "Dirty Weekend." Just straight ahead, kick-ass rock n' roll. He was such a great singer for material like this. I know some people like the Scottish folk singer thing (I love "Gasoline Alley" and "Every Picture" too), but Rod was a great rock singer. He didn't need those silly pop songs.
Reckon he thought he needed the money more than the music - he not done bad on that point. But lost his cool when Passion became a hit, and that kind of stuff seemingly tasted better than hard rocking with the boys. Only some nearly decent soft rockers after that, apart from the big band things he done, I won't touch his post 1980 repertoire with a 30 feet pole
One of the first songs I learned to play on drums. Along with Cat Scratch fever. I’m 59yo now. Played on the road professionally for a few years. I was a lucky man.
+ Doxic Pancake Lol ur funny. BUT ... When i worked for this Major corp. and Was Fat! Ugh! I went to the gym & got me some Hot Legs, So much i worked my ass off. Our Company had a party & I was in the center of the dance floor, had the shortest cougar print mini skirt and that crazy sexy hosiery that my Co-worker Larry was dancing with me, all EYES on us, I was like Larry?? We had a blast. He was Gay but, he said Damn, you make me wanna be straight!! LOL
+Doxic Pancake (Love the username) ;) Oh, BTW It was to this song. Out of No where the DJ just played it. I do design some of my craziest outfits, and just Sayin' I Love when a fatty can Get JUSTICE! 4Real, I looked like Applelonia from Prince. Prince's girl was his main dancer besides the other Latina dancers.
I'm slightly concerned about the other dog wandering around train tracks (not sure if it's a disused line, or they just timed the video to avoid a train that comes through once a day or something).
@@dhart8451 That doesn't stop me worrying. I've watched footage that's over a century old, and still worried about whether some of the animals got hurt or not.

Phil Chen (born in Kingston Jamaica) one the best funk bassists of all time. He played on all of Rod's late-'70s and ealy-'80s hits and everyone of them were gold bass lines!
The Parties in the 70s were XXXXXXX Rated So Much Fun WOWZA !! that was 52 years ago, for this old Fart !!! But me and my SQUEEZE, Steal Bugging to this Stuff !!!
Absolutely sublimely written was introduced to this man..by my sister I was a spry young lad of 16 yrs old..she spun this on vinyl..and been hooked ever since!! 55 yrs old now & was fortunate to see him live in Winnipeg Canada..few yrs.back...i was floored!! One my most favorite song writers!! Enjoy people..turn it up!! Much love!
@@theodoreritola7641I picked up drums after going to Montrose in 74 Denny Carmassi was my hero. We had a few good bands. We opened for some soon to be very big 80s bands. One is still touring..lol It was a wild time.. mid 70s into the mid 80s.. Man the girls.. lol
So true. The nostalgia takes us back to a simpler time in our lives when we were young and carefree. Every song in my collection has a special and unique memory
Foot loose and fancy free best album ever. I sing this to my dad before he passed when I was three. He got to see Frampton before he passed and loved rod. I would listen to this whole album on 8 track until it wore out..🌺
Great song. Making that flying V and Telecaster sounding wonderful. Rod with that raw voice that punched through especially with the Jeff Beck Group. Ain't Superticious was a bad ass song. Great riffs by the master Jeff Beck. English blues are outstanding!
Took my daughter to see Sir Rod Stewart at Saratoga Springs Center for the Performing Arts on July 20, 2022. He was amazing! He played for 2.5 hours. Great showman and what a stage production. Absolutely a "Must See"! He has an amazing voice and energy level! We loved it! Very special memory with my 32-year-old daughter. She was telling people, "I grew up listening to my mom and dad playing Rod's songs for years." It was my 12th Rod Stewart concert
This was the childhood jam between us children and our father. He passed away september 2019 and i really miss those days with him. We just blasted this shit at max volume in his car everytime he picked us up to spend the weekend with him. This song will eternaly remember me of my dad and those easy childhood days. :)
They don't write them like this anymore. Simplicity personified in some ways but the tastiest guitar and bass lines, and the subject matter, well, timeless as well.

SAW ROD STEWART IN 2 CONCERETS BACK IN THE 80'S IN NEW ENGLAND AREA...HE WAS FANTASTIC!!
This is Rock & Roll, Folks! Pure, raw, and unfiltered. Respectfully submitted, Ed.
Massive song from our good Ole days. Rod Stewart rocks.😊
A classic time

An all time classic, great guitar riffs and the unmistakable rasp of Rod Stewart, one of my most favourite tunes.
Nothing beats a flying V guitar solo!
the glorious Rock of the 70's will NEVER be beaten for every genre of music.those of us who lived it knew it was a special era.
THE 70s were KILLER DILLER LOL
I don't care what type of music. All of them kicked ass. Disco. Rock. Country. All of them.
I’m 53 and this song is my party playlist 🎉🎉
The guitar riff after "I love you honey" is pure rock. Might dig my guitar out now and have a go playing it.
Rod is the blue print for a front man. Hair face voice dancing charisma . He has all the ingredients. ❤
Love his gorgeous brown eyes and rooster haircut!😅
😻
Never gets old, still rocking charts, and no autotunes.pure raw talent. Rod Stewart still the Man!!!!
Love the funky sound of this one!

RIP Phil Chen. That bass break is one of the coolest ever and alerted my young ears to the mighty bass guitar.
His bass play on "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" is that song's secret weapon. He was a musical force! RIP Phil.
This was the best band Rod had. I loved Carmen and Phil. Jim had to cause issues. Ugh.

This is badass
It allways has been.

So true. The nostalgia takes us back to a simpler time in our lives when we were young and carefree. Every song in my collection has a special and unique memory

Definitely one of his unbeatable classics!!!
Daniel Navarro Yes , and it starts off with bang !
Super 👍

Rock on Rod, great song and great times!!
