ROD STEWART - THE VERTIGO/MERCURY YEARS 1969-1974 - OUT OF PRINT COLLRCTORS LIMITED EDITION AUDIOPHILE OBI Sealed Box Set WITH 6 Mini Replica LP EXACT TO ORIGINAL ALBUM SET IN A OBI CD WHAT IS A JAPAN "MINI/REPLICA-LP-SLEEVE" CD? Have you ever lamented the loss of one of the 20th Century's great art forms, the 12" vinyl LP jacket? Then "mini-LP-sleeve" CD's may be for you. Mini-sleeve CDs are manufactured in Japan under license. The disc is packaged inside a 135MM X 135MM cardboard precision-miniature replica of the original classic vinyl-LP album. Also, anything contained in the original LP, such as gatefolds, booklets, lyric sheets, posters, printed LP sleeves, stickers, embosses, special LP cover paper/inks/textures and/or die cuts, are precisely replicated and included. An English-language lyric sheet is always included, even if the original LP did not have printed lyrics. Then, there's the sonic quality: Mini-sleeves have dedicated remastering (20-Bit, 24-Bit, DSD, K2/K2HD, and/or HDCD), and can often be superior to the audio on the same title anywhere else in the world. There also may be bonus tracks unavailable elsewhere. Each Japan mini-sleeve has an "obi" ("oh-bee"), a removable Japan-language promotional strip. The obi lists the Japan street date of that particular release, the catalog number, the mastering info, and often the original album's release date. Bonus tracks are only listed on the obi, maintaining the integrity of the original LP artwork. The obi's are collectable, and should not be discarded. All mini-sleeve releases are tremendously limited editions mainly pressed on future orders only and once released immediately out of print. This fact along with other latter features we've mentioned make these titles rare collectibles that sell in the collectors markets for $100's of dollars apiece. Japanese digitally re-mastered Mini LP replica Limited Edition Collection with OBI sash down the front – VERY FEW pieces made world-wide and are immediately Out of Print. Recorded from the finest Original Masters available. Comes with anti-static sleeves similar to Vinyl LPs, Cardboard packaging like an LP. Actual miniaturized version of the 12” LP in 4” CD version REPLICA CD'S INCLUDE: First-pressing-only 6CD box set containing paper-sleeve editions of six of Rod Stewart's early solo albums. Titles include "An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down", "Gasoline Alley", "Every Picture Tells a Story", "Never a Dull Moment", "Smiler", and "Sing It Again Rod". EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY - This was the best rock album of 1971, a true masterpiece of folk rock, hard rock and blues rock. If Rod Stewart had carried on in this vein, he would have been bigger than Elvis now and with his credibility intact, like Springsteen, Tom Waits and the Rolling Stones. These songs are real gems, from the hard rocking Maggie May, Reason To Believe and That's Alright to the more folky numbers like Tomorrow Is A Long Time, Seems Like A Long Time and the deliciously sad but uplifting Mandolin Wind Track Listings 1. Every Picture Tells a Story 2. Seems Like a Long Time 3. That's All Right 4. Tomorrow Is a Long Time 5. Maggie May 6. Mandolin Wind 7. (I Know) I'm Losing You 8. Reason to Believe AN OLD RAINCOAT WON'T LET YOU DOWN - Here are the songs: 1)Street Fighting Man 2)Man Of Constant Sorrow 3)Blind Prayer 4)Handbags And Gladrags 5)An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down 6)I Wouldn't Ever Change a Thing 7)Cindy's Lament 8)Dirty Old Town. I recommend this album to anyone who likes Rod Stewart's early gritty rock & roll. Keith Emerson also graces this album with some great keyboard work on some of the tracks! Imagine a much harder rocking version of Maggie May, that's the best way I can think of to describe this album. Happy listening! GASOLINE ALLEY - Track Listings 1. Gasoline Alley 2.

Mine For Me THE RARE OUT OF PRINT JAPAN OBI FOUR VINYL PRESSINGS GASOLINE ALLEY - Rod Stewart's second solo effort, a rocking acoustic folk album of considerable inspiration and conviction! One of the best-selling British recording artists of all time (six consecutive No. 1 albums and 24 Top 10 singles), Rod Stewart, along with playing in the Jeff Beck Group and the Faces, was also releasing solo work as well. Released in 1970, Gasoline Alley is in a style that Stewart developed and honed and which dipped into Stewart's working class Scottish origins. Featuring a mix of original work and well selected and executed covers, Stewart's unique and true voice, shines on this classic record. Track Listings 1. Gasoline Alley 2. It's All Over Now 3.

Contributing artists: Ian McLagan, John Baldry, Ron Wood Producer: Rod Stewart Distributor: n/a Recording type: Studio Recording mode: Stereo SPAR Code: AAD Album notes Personnel includes: Rod Stewart (vocals, acoustic guitar); Martin Quittenton (acoustic guitar); Ron Wood (guitar, pedal steel guitar, bass); Sam Mitchell (slide guitar); Dick Powell (violin); Pete Sears (piano); Ian McClagan (organ); Danny Thompson, Andy Pyle (bass); Mick Waller (drums); Madeline Bell, Mateus Rose, John Baldry (background vocals). The aesthetic Rod Stewart had been honing over his first three solo albums--an aesthetic that combined folk, hard rock, and R&B swagger--was perfected on EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY. The album's combination of strong, original songs and plum cover versions reveal the artist's range and versatility as he simultaneously paid tribute to mentors and declared his own craft. Members of Stewart's regular group, the Faces, provide intuitive support, making nearly every track shine with passion and edge. Stewart's take-no-prisoners interpretation of the Temptations' "(I Know I'm) Losing You" brought new dimensions to a Tamla/Motown classic. "Maggie May," one of the great pop anthems, is the obvious standout, but the remaining selections, such as "Mandolin Wind" and Tim Hardin's beautiful "Reason To Believe," have a similar sense of purpose. Through it all, of course, is Stewart's soulful, beautifully textured singing, which reaches its pinnacle on these performances, ensuring the artist's standing as one of rock's all-time greatest vocalists. If you buy only one Rod Stewart album, EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY should be it.
