Rod's had 3 lives.
I saw him with Long John Baldry and with the Jeff Beck Group. My favourite part of his first period.
I also saw the Faces several times, when our band supported them (we had the same management). Good stuff. Faces audiences were something else.
3rd period, from Atlantic Crossing onwards. My least favourite period of the 3. Rod was one of the blokes until Britt came along.
All these people are difficult to varying degrees. It comes with the world they inhabit, but you can't argue, he's a very talented guy.
