Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Sailing

Answer: Atlantic Crossing

The 1979 album "Atlantic Crossing" topped the UK chart and made number nine in the USA. The title refers to Stewart moving to America to escape punitive income tax in Britain. "Sailing" topped the UK singles chart and was used as the theme tune for the BBC documentary series "Sailor" which followed the crew of the British aircraft carrier "Ark Royal".
2. Ooh La La

Answer: When We Were the New Boys

"When We Were the New Boys", released in 1998, made it to number two in the UK, but didn't fare as well in the USA, stalling at number 44. Most of the tracks on the album are cover versions. "Ooh La La" was originally recorded in 1973 by Stewart's former band, The Faces, although Rod himself didn't actually feature on that version.

The 1998 cover of the song was released as a single, reaching number 16 in the UK and 39 in the USA.
3. Rhythm of My Heart

Answer: Vagabond Heart

"Vagabond Heart", released in 1991, reached number two in the UK and gave Stewart his first US top ten album in thirteen years. "Rhythm of My Heart" was written by Marc Jordan and John Capek, and made the top five on both sides of the Atlantic. Kevin Weed played bagpipes on this track.
4. Da Ya Think I'm Sexy

Answer: Blondes Have More Fun

The 1978 album "Blondes Have More Fun" reached number three in the UK, and gave Stewart his last US number one album of the 20th century. The album saw Stewart move away from his rock roots to a more disco flavour. "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" topped the singles charts in both the UK and USA. Royalties for the song were donated to UNICEF.
5. Maggie May

Answer: Every Picture Tells a Story

"Every Picture Tells a Story", released in 1971, was Rod Stewart's third album, and his commercial breakthrough. It topped the charts in numerous countries, including the UK and USA. "Maggie May" was also a transatlantic number one, and remained a part of Rod's live shows well into the 21st century.
6. Tonight's the Night

Answer: A Night on the Town

Released in 1976, "A Night on the Town" topped the UK album chart and reached number two in the USA. "Tonight's the Night" topped the US Billboard singles chart and reached number five in the UK, despite being banned by some radio stations due to its suggestive lyrics regarding loss of virginity.
7. Handbags and Gladrags

Answer: An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down

Released in 1969, "An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down" was Rod Stewart's first solo studio album. In the USA, it was released under the alternative, unimaginative, title of "The Rod Stewart Album". Although it didn't sell well at the time, it has retrospectively received much praise from the critics. "Handbags and Gladrags", written by Mike d'Abo of Manfred Mann, has been an occasional part of Rod's live shows through the decades.
8. I Was Only Joking

Answer: Foot Loose and Fancy Free

"Footloose and Fancy Free", released in 1977, was a number two hit in the USA, and reached number three in the UK. The album spawned three hit singles, "You're in My Heart", "Hot Legs" and "I Was Only Joking", the latter two being paired as a double-A side in the UK.
9. You Wear It Well

Answer: Never a Dull Moment

"Never a Dull Moment", released in 1972, gave Rod Stewart his second successive UK number one album, whilst in the USA it made it to number two. The album contains a mixture of cover versions and self-penned songs. Stewart co-wrote "You Wear it Well" with Martin Quittenton, and it topped the UK singles chart.
10. Baby Jane

Answer: Body Wishes

The 1983 album "Body Wishes" was a top five hit in the UK, but didn't fare well in America, stalling at number 30. "Baby Jane" was released as a single and gave Rod his first UK chart topper for five years, and his last of the 20th century.
