Talk:Rod Stewart

message: In the future, please bring all questions about new references to Mr. Stewart's ferroequinological activities, and in particular to articles in Model Railroader, to me, rather than blindly expunging such references as if they were common vandalism. I can be reached at jamesl@hbquik.com.

thread_title:  Model Railroading -- and Model Railroader articles 

message: in the article it states:
" and his harmonica playing improved in part from watching Mick Jagger on stage.[40]"
Mick Jagger wasn't playing harmonica on stage in 1963 in fact, he didn't start playing harmonica live until Rock and Roll Circus which was recorded in 1968, and subsequently on the 1969 tour of the USA. If Rod Stewart improved his harmonica playing by watching the Rolling Stones, it could only have been Brian Jones who influenced Rod, not Mick Jagger. I believe the source is incorrect.

replies: text: Hmm.  This is October-November 1963 it's talking about, around the time of the "I Wanna Be Your Man" second single, and the Stones residency at the Studio 51 jazz cellar.  What source describes what instruments the different Stones were playing during that residency?  Per this book on harmonica players, both Mick and Brian were harmonica students of Cyril Davies back circa 1962.  Maybe the source used here – Nelson and Bangs, Rod Stewart, p. 58 – has got it wrong but maybe it hasn't.  I don't see enough yet to overturn it.  Wasted Time R (talk) 10:39, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

message: I just declined an edit regarding this, a change from British to Scottish with the comment - Stewart identifies himself very stronly as Scottish. I have amended accordingly. If this change is acceptable or not clearly needs discussion/consensus first. Govindaharihari (talk) 10:02, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: If there was a source that made clear Stewart's personal preference for being identified as Scottish, over British or indeed English, then there would be something to discuss.  Until then, there's not getting away from his Scottish/English parentage and birth in London.  So "British" has always seemed the most apt. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 20:41, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
