Rod Stewart has spent four decades being a rock star, three being a parent, and has a new album's worth of stories to tell. Time is his first album of new material in almost 20 years. The album was born from a burst of inspiration that came while he was reviewing his life for his recent memoir. "Suddenly ideas for lyrics were piling up in my head," he says. "Next thing I knew, I had a song called 'It's Over' about divorce and separation. And now I was getting up in the middle of the night and scrambling for a pen to write things down, which has never happened to me. I finished seven or eight songs very quickly and I still wasn't done, and it became apparent that I would eventually have a whole album of material to record." Rod Stewart is starting his Live the Life tour in Europe on June 1st and will be in America starting October 17th.
I had not really listened to Rod Stewart before receiving this album except for his songs that were on the radio. Time definitely has the classic Rod Stewart sound. I think it is great that he is back to writing new material after 20 years. My favorite track was Pure Love. It is such a sweet song and I had it stuck in my head for days. Time is available to purchase now on iTunes and Amazon.
