The Illustrated Encyclopedia of RocK [NEW 1978 Edition] - Some more #rodstewart ! Once deciding not to pursue a British ‘football’ career, he changed courses. Instead he adopted the contemporary beatnik course, and took to the road. Bummed around Europe for a while, in particular in #spain🇪🇸 , with #english folksinger Wizz Jones, who taught him how to play banjo; this was Stewart’s formative period (he later cited his vocal influences as #samcooke #eddiecochran #aljolson & #ramblinjackelliott ). He had to be repatriated from Spain as he was destitute. Apparently, he still owes #britishairways the cost of the fare. 1) In 1972, his next solo album, his 4th, #neveradullmomentalbum , was inevitably as commercially successful as the previous one, Every Picture Tells a Story, and immediately went gold, while “You Wear it Well” was a worthy successor to “Maggie May”. #rockandroll #mercuryrecords #theseventiesrock #the70s #englishrockers https://www.instagram.com/p/COTNEJ_LJjQ/?igshid=1ves86x3rn93m
