  • Music intro by: Gail Nobles

    Do we have any Rod Stewart fans out there? How many remember Rod Stewart in the 70s? Rod Stewart remained at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 Chart for 17 weeks during the 1970s. He is among the best selling music artist of all time having sold more than 120 million records worldwide. He has had 10 number-one albums and 31 top-ten singles in the UK. Six of which reached number one. Stewart has had 16 top-ten singles in the US with four reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

    Rod Stewart's first hit song was Maggie May released 1971. There were other hits like Hot Legs released in 1978, You Wear It Well in 1972. The hit song I remember most in the 70s is Da Ya Think I'm Sexy released in 1978. It was from Stewart's nineth studio album Blondes Have More Fun. It was written by Stewart Appice and Duane Hitchings.

    The song was released as the first single from Blondes Have More Fun in November 1978. It spent one week atop the UK Singles Chart in December 1978 and four weeks atop the US Billboard Hot 100 in February 1979. Billboard ranked it number four on its Top Singles of 1979 year-end chart. It also topped the charts in Canada for four weeks and in Australia for two weeks.

    I played Rod Stewart’s song to death when I was a little girl. My mother and father had the 45 record. I loved the music and the bridge of the song when Rod Stewart said: His heart is beating like a drum because it lasts he's got this girl home.” He was telling a story, and there was something about the music and Rod's voice in that spot. I always waited for that part of the song.

    I'm Gail Nobles and you're listening to The Ferret. Thank you for tuning in, and I hope you'll come back to Tune in next time.
