With an estimated 250 million worldwide album and single sales, Rod Stewart arguably possesses one of rock’s greatest and most distinctive voices. For many years, he called Warner Bros. home, first as lead singer of the influential band the Faces and later as an internationally successful solo artist.
Released November 17th on Warner Bros., 'Some Guys Have All The Luck’ is a definitive, 30 song collection spanning 1971 to 2004. Two versions of the album are available: a standard two-CD edition and a deluxe edition that includes a bonus DVD of music videos.Rod Stewart began his musical career in the mid-60s, and came to the forefront of the British pop music scene in 1968 with the Jeff Beck Group. He then teamed with the Small Faces (who subsequently changed their name to the Faces), and later released critically acclaimed solo records, including Every Picture Tells a Story, which made him world- famous. By the mid-’70s he’d gone solo for good, continuing a career of multiplatinum albums and chart-topping singles. Stewart was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994, a fitting tribute to a masterful songwriter and peerless vocalist.
Between 2002 and 2005, Stewart released four Grammy®-winning volumes of the The Great American Songbook, which comprise the biggest selling ongoing series of new music recordings in history, with a total of 17.5 million copies worldwide. Beginning with It Had To Be You,The Great American Songbook in 2002, followed by As Time Goes By,Volume II in 2003. Stardust,Volume III earned Stewart his first Grammy® and entered the chart at #1 in 2004. Thanks For the Memory,The Great American Songbook Volume IV (2005) rounds out the Songbook series. 2006 saw the release of Still The Same,Great Rock Classics of Our Time, his first rock album in over eight years, which featured songs by his contemporaries and a return to his roots.
