Rod Stewart-Blondes Have More Fun (1978)

At the end of the 70s, rock lived uncertain moments, with the arrival of punk, new wave and the fever of disco music, it made react very differently to the established artists, many of them were molded to the needs of the time, others continued stubborn not to evolve and there were many others who lost their way permanently.
Rod Stewart who had even competed with the Sex Pistols to place a number one with the single "First Cut is the Deepest" would bet on equipping his songs with the necessary elements to sound more current, more optimistic and even sexier.
Already in 1977 he had tried it with "Foot Loose and Fancy Free", and a year later he published "Blondes Have More Fun".
The blonde singer set out to demonstrate that he could compete with all the new sounds that prevailed at that time and in part he would achieve it with this album, songs like "Da ya Think i'm Sexy", they would reach number one immediately and move to Being one of their most celebrated songs, while the album managed to sell almost five million copies around the world.
The rest of the album was an exercise in great commercial rock songs that flirted with the quality pop-disco sound, with a very careful production and exquisite instrumentation.
