Said Rod Stewart: “We haven’t yet begun rehearsals but I can already tell you this, with Stevie on board our audiences are in store for an evening of pure rock & roll music. I’m already thinking about which of my old favourites to bring back and vocally, I think we’ve both begun thinking about which songs might be great fun and well-suited for a duet or two.”

My husband and I were just talking about her yesterday. She has been my idol since I was 13 and that was many years ago. I had all of Fleetwood Mac’s albums and hers. Wish I still had them. Got lost when I lived in Texas for a while in the 80′s along with my Rolling Stones albums
