Atlantic Crossing

Product Information

Of the ballads, "Drift Away" must rank as one of his most pointless covers especially as Dobie Gray's hit version was still a recent memory. "It's Not The Spotlight" and "Still Love You" both unconvincingly attempt to reintroduce the mandolin to his sound which so characterised earlier hits. "I Don't Want To Talk About It" is a sensitive cover of a lesser-known Crazy Horse tune and became one of his signature songs although it wasn't released as a single until partnering the next album's "The First Cut Is The Deepest" as a double A-side over a year later.

In 1969, Rod Stewart joined the band Faces, releasing an album called 'The First Step' in 1970. During this time, Rod's solo career also started to blossom. He released his debut album 'Every Picture Tells a Story' in 1971, after signing to Mercury Records in October 1968. The album and debut single 'Maggie May' went straight to Number 1 in the UK and US at the same time - the first in history. With Atlantic Crossing, Stewart ended his association with Ronnie Wood, Ian McLagan and the stable of musicians who had been his core collaborators on his classic run of albums for Mercury Records, fusing soul and folk. Instead, he used a group of session musicians, including The Memphis Horns and three-quarters of Booker T. and the MG's. The album was produced by Tom Dowd, the famous engineer and producer on records by so many of Stewart's heroes during Dowd's time on staff at Atlantic Records. The only song performed from this album on The Faces' final US tour in autumn 1975 was "Three Time Loser", and the rest of the group heavily disliked Stewart's change in musical direction on this album. Following the success of the album, and his move to the U.S., Stewart announced his exit from the Faces by the end of the year.
