In 2008, Rod Stewart's greatest hits album "SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK" was triple platinum in the UK, and his glorious career was in the spotlight. A superb live pro shot that truly represents "moving greatest hits" has been decided to be released. This work was shot at the "Lisbon performance on June 1, 2008". It is a multi-camera pro shot of the performance at the huge festival "ROCK IN RIO" in Portugal. At that time, Rod was working on a soul cover album, but due to a discrepancy with Clive Davis who proposed a Christmas album, it was suspended. It was switched to the best album "SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK" and the tour "ROCKS HIS GREATEST HITS". This tour also realized the first (and the last) performance in Japan in 13 years. First of all, let's look back at the schedule at that time and check the position of the show. 2008 January 31st + February 1st: Hollywood (2 performances) February 18th - March 5th: Oceania (9 performances) March 27th - April 11th: Central and South America (9 performances) May 23rd - June 12th: Europe (5 performances) ←★Here★ August 1st - 30th: North America (19 performances) October 11th: Las Vegas performance November 14th "SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK" released December 1st - 7th: South Africa (4 performances) 2009 January 28th + 30th: Hollywood (2 performances) February 28th - March 14th: Asia (7 performances) This is the whole picture of "ROCKS HIS GREATEST HITS". The performance in Japan was realized at the end, but the "ROCK IN RIO" performance of this work was the fourth performance of the "Europe" tour of the previous year. This work, which conveys such a show, is the best video with "super". After all, "ROCK IN RIO" is one of the world's leading super-giant festivals. Its broadcasts also boast the world's leading quality, and have produced video works representing many bands and artists. This work is of perfect quality, as is the case with other works. It is a superb professional shot that can only be described as "official substitute" or "semi-official". What is depicted with such visual beauty is exactly "the best album to see with your eyes" and "the moving greatest hits". Let's organize the full set by era in order to realize its luxury. 70's (7 songs) This Old Heart Of Mine / The First Cut Is The Deepest / You're In My Heart (The Final Acclaim) / Hot Legs / Maggie May / Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? / Sailing 80's (5 songs) Forever Young / Some Guys Have All The Luck / Downtown Train / Baby Jane / Young Turks 90's (3 songs) Rhythm Of My Heart / Having A Party / Have I Told You Lately Others (3 songs) It's A Heartache / Proud Mary / Have You Ever Seen The Rain ... and so on. There are some rare songs like the cover of CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL's "Proud Mary", but the others are just the best. From "EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY" to his latest work at the time, "STILL THE SAME... GREAT ROCK CLASSICS OF OUR TIME", this is a special set that condenses 35 years of solo glory, and of the 18 songs sung in this work, 14 are also included in the best album "SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK". It is truly a "best album of video and live performances", and the definitive multi-camera pro shot that vividly revives the 2009 Japan tour. "SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK" was also released in a deluxe edition with a DVD of clips, but this work should have been included instead... It is such a great hits video work. A super-excellent album packed with Rod Glory's masterpieces.
