Yeah, I had heard Tim’s version first, but it was Scott McKenzie’s recording that became the most familiar to me. He released it on The Voice of Scott McKenzie in December 1967. When I heard Rod Stewart’s version, I absolutely flipped! I first heard him when he was the frontman in the Jeff Beck group in the summer of 1968. The album, Truth, featured Beck’s Bolero, an instrumental Beck recorded back in 1966 no less. It was released in the spring of 1967 on the B-Side of Hi-Ho Silver Lining and was everything anyone could hope for in an instrumental. It was also ahead of its time, even for a 1968 album track. Before the term supergroup came into existence, the track included Jimmy Page, Keith Moon, John Paul Jones and Nicky Hopkins. And I sure am glad I got the chance to say a few words about the life and times of Rod Stewart.
