Rod Stewart's first recording session tape up for auction
The Guardian
|February 15, 2023
A tape of Sir Rod Stewart's first studio recording, which helped secure a record deal, will be sold at auction by his former manager.
-
Jonathan Rowlands, 83, said the 15ips analogue tape was sent to Decca Records as an audition recording in 1964, and the result was Stewart's first recording contract.
The tape, being sold as a collector's item only and with no intellectual property rights, has a pre-auction estimate of £500 to £1,000.
Also included in the lot being sold at Cheffins auctioneers are photocopies of Rowlands's 1964 appointment book, which details his meetings with Stewart.
The recording was made on 18 June 1964 in the basement studio of the engineer Pepe Rush in Berwick Street in Soho, central London.
Its track listing is: Just Like I Treat You; Mopper's Blues; Bright Lights, Big City; Keep Your Hands Off Her; Don't You Tell Nobody; Ain't That Lovin' You Baby and Work Song.
