Unquestionably one of rock's greatest vocalists, Rod Stewart should have titled this album Great Rock Classics of My Time. Most of these Top 40 tunes and others like Dylan's "If Not for You" were popularized in the early to mid-'70s, when Stewart was entering his rock prime. He's perfect to croon Elvin Bishop's "Fooled Around and Fell in Love," soulfully pained on Bonnie Tyler's "It's a Heartache," and right in the pocket on the Pretenders' "I'll Stand by You." And his unmistakable raspiness puts another layer of wisdom on the old Cat Steven's classic "Father & Son." But you also have to wonder about some of the safe song choices, such Badfinger's "Day After Day" and Nazareth's "Love Hurts." Why he continues to record mossy cover songs is a legitimate question. What's stopping him from getting back in trenches with some contemporary rock songwriters and really reinventing himself? The karaoke lounge is no place for a guy this great to hang. --Martin Keller More Great Rod Stewart

 Rod Stewart........still as good as he ever was! September 27, 2008
This is one of his best remake CD's. I love that he made this one and the Great American Songbook ones as well. I am personally waiting anxiously for him to make Still The Same II. And I would embrace ANY remake CD's that he wants to create and I'd pay for them without even needing to listen to samples first!!!! Rod Stewart truely rocks and hes' "Still the Same". Thanks Rod for more great music.
 Still the Same - Great Rock Classics May 15, 2008
Just as great as all Rod's other cover CDs. What a voice! I was, however, very unhappy with Jukebox On-Line delivery of item.

Loved all the title's on this...great for traveling when you hit the dead areas with the radio.
 He should get clear of Clive Davis!!! November 21, 2007

Rod Stewart is in a crisis. He needs an idea independent of his record label owner, Clive Davis, who is so old now, he doesn't leave fingerprints, and his ideas DO NOT FIT a talent like Rod. This album has "I'm all washed up, so I might as well cash in" written all over it. Four (count 'em, FOUR) volumes of the Great American Songbook (which was hard to take), then THIS??? This album flat out stinks. There is not a moment on this record that sounds like Rod has any grasp of these songs except "It'll make money". Stick to the originals. Rod, I may buy another of your records if you make one the old fashioned way. Write a bunch of good songs, sing them with conviction (the way you used to), and tell Clive to take a flying leap at the moon. You've made them enough money, now do it YOUR WAY!!!!!
Don't get such bitterness November 3, 2007
Yeah...the Rod is in his comfort zone, he's living easy, singing easy, making money...still the same voice, still the same natural!
