Rod Stewart was paid in an unusual manner for his demo. He recalled to Uncut: "When I did it, I hadn't broken through with 'Maggie May.' I did it for a set of carpets for me car. It was my mate who convinced me to do it. He ran a car showroom, and he said, 'I've got this group come from Australia, but the singer's not very good. Can you do a demo for me?' I said, 'What do I get?' He said, 'Well, I don't have any money. I'll give you a set of carpets.' That was 1969."

One to remind older posters of this superb song, and to introduce it to younger ones.

Sitting on a rooftop in the evening sun when this came on the radio. Never realised what a great song it is. Apologies to everyone at home in the rain.

Mr Tony Bennett was 92 and suffering from Alzheimer's when he sang this. One of the greats. RIP.

Omg, looking at the state of the choices here, I cannot believe I got ridiculed for putting up a classic from the 70's.

 

[jack123]

Here it is anyway, best track of the 70's by a country mile.
