Title: Gee, where'd he get the idea for this?
Review: Two albums of this stuff, and, by remarkable coincidence, exactly 50% of the songs are ones that were previously--and most of them recently!--covered by lesser-known but far more talented Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music, who got a Grammy nomination for his similar--and earlier!--CD. Sure, anyone can record these songs, but the significant duplication strongly suggests that Ferry had an idea that Rod thought he could better capitalize on. Spare yourself the soulless Stewart crooning. If you want a modern pop singer doing authentic but fresh renditions, buy Bryan Ferry instead.
