Various Artists - The Roots Of Rod Stewart: The Great American Songbook 1927-1944

Twenty tracks recorded between 1927 and 1944 which were part of the inspiration for Rod Stewart's fabulously successful 'The Great American Songbook' series. Originals from the likes of Billie Holiday, Nat 'King' Cole and the Ink Spots show the original magic which Stewart re-created. The collection was compiled by Dave Henderson (Mojo) who also provides the sleevenotes.
