Once In A Blue Moon

01.13.10

If ONCE IN A BLUE MOON hasn't exactly been the Holy Grail for the Rod Stewart faithful, it's only because we didn't know what we were missing - until now. This unqiue collection of covers recorded in the summer 1992 is Maestro Stewart at his interpretive best - that magnificent voice yearning, pleading, and shouting in all its gravelly glory while serving as a lethal instrument for the legendary producer Trevor Horn. And though each of these ten tracks has been previously released in various forms in different mixes, together they form an exciting whole that places BLUE MOON squarely in the upper reaches of Rod's classic catalog.

Features covers of the Stones' "Ruby Tuesday," Steve Nicks' "Stand Back," Bob Dylan's "The Groom's Still Waiting At The Altar" and many more!

1. Ruby Tuesday
2. The Groom’s Still Waiting At The Altar
3. Shotgun Wedding
4. The Downtown Lights
5. Windy Town
6. This
7. Stand Back
8. Let The Day Begin
9. First I Look At The Purse
10. Tom Traubert’s Blues

Re: Once In A Blue Moon

Rod,

I have grown up with your music from a very early age and have always found solace in songs like 'I don't wanna talk about it' and 'someone like you'. over the past weeks i have found the stress of work almost over powering but last night in Nottingham I was fortunate to see you live for the first time and it's given me a feeling of hope. Above your musical talent one thing came clear about you as a person and thats your willingness to connect with your fans, You might not remember but someone gave you a Celtic Hat and in return later in the night you gave them a football that one moment defines you 'A true gent'.

Thanx

Dale
