Description

I AM MAKING A START ON CLEARING OUT MY HOARDINGS AND HAVE THIS VERY RARE ROD STEWARD  RECORD FOR SALE.

Below is some history I found on the web:

At the end of 1965 still touring Britain with Steampacket, Rod made a second solo single, this time for Columbia. The Day Will Come was written by Barry Mason and was blatant pop, but still failed to chart. It was also around this time that ITV screened a documentary titled 'Rod The Mod'. Amongst other things, it featured Steampacket travelling around the country in their little van on their way to gigs and Rod on the football pitch! My own attempts to dig up this much sought after film have so far failed and I did try some of the countries top archivists whilst researching my book, The Visual Documentary for Omnibus. However, the television exposure did not do Rod much good as neither The Day Will Come or Shake released a few months later, sold more than a handful of copies. Rod was still recovering from the disappointment when, he claims, he was fired from Steampacket, apparently to save money! According to Brian Auger, however, Rod walked out. Furthermore, Baldry's career was starting to turn into the self-destroying cabaret, variety TV show circle that did not entirely unbefit Baldry, who can be suave as Julio Iglesias, but hardly did justice to his early attempts to establish blues in Britain.
