Lean And Hungry Rod
Barbara Charone, Crawdaddy!, September 1976
YESTERDAY ROD STEWART wanted his picture taken. Today he's not so sure. Flaunting a carefully arranged scruffy look, the singer strolls into a rented London flat, points an accusing finger at the photographer and abruptly announces, "You're sitting in my seat." Sometimes, every picture does indeed tell a story.
