steantval Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Not good - voice shot. Big mistake following on after Bryan Adam's excellent set. Quote
skidder652003 Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 I'd rather kiss a tramps arse. Quote
PaulWarning Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) apparently he did a Faces gig recently, I'd have watched that Edited September 13, 2015 by PaulWarning Quote
KevB Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Just listening on BBC site doing 'In a broken dream', don't think it sounds bad for a 70 year old tbh. Quote

I`d have gone along to that. Quote

[/quote] I actually switched off after three numbers. Rod will still be classed of one of the best vocalists out of the UK, it's just a shame that age has taken its toll on his once great voice. The first album I purchased was Jeff Beck - Truth with Rod on vocals. Quote
JTUK Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 I think fans know his voice has gone..which is why he had the crooner angle going..but one last chance to see him is probably why a lot went. My sister went... and I can bet she will say she'd rather go and see a good tribute these days... but she wanted to see HIM this time.!! They'll probably be saying the same thing about Brian Adams in 10 or so years.. Quote
chris_b Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 I first saw Rod the Mod with Long John Baldry at the Uxbridge Show in the mid 60's. Singing Rock Me Baby to a bunch of Mums and Dads who were only there for the flower show, he looked and sounded a million dollars. I was listening to Beck-Ola yesterday, of its time but what a wonderful noise. One of the first [i]rock[/i] bands. About 20 years ago RS had a lot of trouble getting insurance for his tours because his voice kept giving out. If he doesn't see a voice training coach his voice is only going one way. Quote
timbass Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Did anyone else who saw Rod Stewart's set in the Radio 2 Hyde Park gig notice his bassist Conrad Korsch? I think he's REALLY good.[/font][/color] Quote
chris_b Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Great player and he's been with RS for quite a long time. Quote
