Craggy-faced rock singer Rod Stewart is thought to be one of the biggest-selling artists of all time, with recent estimates suggesting he has sold around 250 million records.Stewart was born and raised in London, but has often asserted the sense of Scottish identity instilled in him by his parents. After several hit-and-miss stints in small blues and rock bands, his distinctive gravelly voice first made an impression with The Jeff Beck Group, whose debut album Truth (1968) was a massive influence on Led Zeppelin and a seminal album in the development of hard rock. The group toured widely.

Sounds of the Seventies was a 38-volume series issued by Time-Life during the late 1980s and early-to-mid 1990s, spotlighting pop music of the 1970s. Much like Time-Life's other series chronicling popular music, volumes in the "Sounds of the Seventies" series covered a specific time period, including individual years in some volumes, and different parts of the decade (for instance, the early 1970s) in others; in addition, some volumes covered specific trends, such as music popular on album-oriented rock stations on the FM band. Each volume was issued on either compact disc, cassette or (with volumes issued prior to 1991) vinyl record.

It may not be the "ultimate" collection of hits from the 1970's, but this ten disc set does indeed offer 198 of the songs that helped define the decade. Happily, they are all original recordings by the original artists, as they were heard on the radio. True, in a few cases that means the selections are "radio edits" (Rod Stewart's 1971 hit "Maggie May", for example, is missing the 30 second instrumental introduction that was included on the original album, but rarely played over the airwaves), but why quibble? The songs, though not necessarily remastered, all sound great, and the set includes some genuine treasures that have not (yet) been offered on other compilations. Highly recommended!
