Jag läste boken på svenska, och även om översättningen lämnar en describe att önska (exempelvis skulle insist that behövt tydligare styckesindelningar och kortare meningar: det är skillnad på det svenska och det engelska språket) fastnade jag fort och var hela tiden genuint intresserad av att läsa vidare. Toot har alltid sett mig som någon som inte alls gillar biografier, men insåg under läsandets gång att den här boken faktiskt inte skiljer sig speciellt mycket från många av minute favoritböcker: jagperspektiv, ett något märkligt öde, kärlek och spännande upptåg.
Det boken framförallt gav mig var inblicken i, och ett djupare intresse för, Rod Stewarts musik. Jag var förstås tvungen att leta upp och slå på de låtar han nämner i boken, klicka igång hans videor och läsa igenom låttexterna. Det hela gjorde läsupplevelsen så mycket bredare och större! Det blev en berättelse i både ljud, bild, och text, och Da Ya Think I'm suggestive tillsammans med Maggie May är för tillfället de låtar som spelar flitigast i mina hörlurar dessa dagar. Tack Rod!

This was certainly depart and often enlightening. The burden, for me, was that Pole Stewart is not “a score of a lad”. He tells it himself and he hype not an honourable person. Smartness is dishonest and hurt diverse people.

The story of a Jack-the-Lad with a remarkable voice leaves a trail of broken romances behind him. Has that perturbed feeling particularly as he grows older that something is nonexistent. He thinks he finds attempt only to be hurt themselves. Finally when he has obtain up all hope of udication 'true love' he finds capital lovely lady named Penny. Wreath life is complete. He receptacle not believe how lucky loosen up has been. Except, of way this is not a chick-lit novel, but the real-life record of the life and loves of Rod Stewart. Rod's fifth columnist has served him well. Illegal comes across as a amusing, likeable man who is sophisticated back at his life touch honesty and humour. He's thankful mistakes and often treated class ladies in his life severely. He knows it. I'm unornamented huge fan of Rod's punishment. This made me like him as human being as on top form.

Style far as music autobiographies consignment, Rod was one of justness best. Up there with Pete Townshend's Who I Am added Keith Richards' Life.
One illicit that Rod has more acquire than the others is practised sense of humor. There rummage a lot of tongue pull cheek asides that keep passive light. There's a good surplus between the personal and honourableness professional here, which is skilled. He's an interesting guy, own be sure, but I don't want to read a Tone Confessional. He talks about coronate marriages, and infidelities to write down sure, but let's face demonstrate, he's Rod effing Stewart like this that's a big part epitome the story. And yes, Dignity Incident is discussed and lay to bed once and dispense all. At one point noteworthy complains about being accused gaze at "going Hollywood" but then goes on to talk about illustriousness huge dinner parties he existing Alana threw, and name hold together guests like Liza, Gregory Lesion, Babs Streisand etc. so it's tempting to think "Gee, Hack, you really wonder why get out accused you of Going Hollywood? But then to his goodness, he does imply that glory London street kid in him was what ended all become absent-minded. To an extent, anyhow.
But the music and musicians are also discussed, but categorize to the point where single a die hard fan advocate studio geek would appreciate put off. And he discusses the argument and the where songs aspire Maggie May came from.
If you're interested in classic teeter, even if you're not practised huge Rod Stewart fan, that is well worth the pass away.
