For the longest time, I thought Rod Stewart was strictly a solo artist. I didn’t realize that part of his career was spent in a group called Faces, though I had known a couple of songs by the group even as a kid. It was just one of those things where I had never heard the group announced with the songs when I heard them. Within the first few months of my career, however, I had the album A Nod Is As Good As A Wink… …To A Blind Horse come across my desk. In looking at the song lineup, I immediately recognized the song “Stay With Me” and wondered if it was the same song I was familiar with. As soon as I listened to it, there was no doubt about it.
