Rod: The Autobiography

He is enjoyably gossipyabout friends such as Elton John and about his many exes — including Britt Ekland, who loved making eggy bread for his bandmates, and his former wife Rachel Hunter, the only one to have broken his heart. Written in a cheery, faintly ironic style (there’s even a chapter devoted to his haircut), this is a very enjoyable romp. * DAILY MAIL *…amiably and self-knowingly told… the tone pitched right and the jokes good…He writes articulately about music: where a drummer sits on the beat, or what makes a song bombproof. It’s the work of someone who really knows his craft, and loves it. * Guardian *Behind the rock’n’roll persona, vividly portrayed in his new memoir, is a self deprecating man of manners…highly entertaining. * The Sunday Times *Quite the life you’ve led… the stories in here, I mean, I blushed a little * Graham Norton *It really is a rollercoaster ride…It’s a proper book. It’s not frothy. It’s not candy flossy…It is no holds barred. You wrote it yourself, it’s so obvious. It’s your voice all the way through * Chris Evans *…the book is funny, vivid and even, at times, self-critical… * Daily Telegraph *A rollicking rock’nroll story. * The Scotsman *Rod Stewart’s fascinating autobiography is a colourful account of an extraordinary life * Hello! *He gives you, rather generously, a guided tour into not only his life but the life of a rock star * Different Scene *What we loved about this book is the feeling that you are having a personal conversation with Rod Stewart … highly recommended! * Hot Brands Cool Places *
