Incomplete hits

Besides the overwhelming pink of the cover which to me is emblematic of Rod's descent into singalong commercialism, my problem with this album is that some of the greatest hits have been omitted. In 1971, Reason To Believe was a huge hit at the same time as Maggie May, so should have been included. Two other authentic rock numbers, You Wear It Well and Tom Traubert's Blues (Waltzing Matilda) are missing too. The good stuff includes his 1979 nod to disco, D'ya Think I'm Sexy, The Killing Of Georgie, a great message song and the two tuneful ballads, Sailing and First Cut Is The Deepest. So although this isn't a bad album, it is incomplete at best. There are many Best Of collections available that contain more of Stewart's good music from his solo career and with The Faces.

Missing some!

This is pretty good but it is missing a lot of Rods hits. All the songs on this were big hits for Rod Stewart back in the day but at the time this was released he had a lot more hits that could have been on here.

Were is 'Every Picture Tells A Story' and 'Cut Across Shorty' those were to of his biggest hits? 'Killing of Georgie, Pt. 1-2' was not abig hit for Rod so why the hell is that on his greatest hits??? The same can be said about 'I was Only Joking'

Look this is good if you are just getting in to Rod or if you just want a FEW of his hits but this is most of his commercial stuff, if you want Rod's best you need Gasoline Alley, that is his best album and one of the best albums of all time, evern better then Every Picture Tells A Story.
