Rod Stewart: Atlantic Crossing
John Morthland, Creem, December 1975
COMING AS IT does amidst sweeping changes in Stewart's career and personal life, the unsettling nature of Atlantic Crossing isn't that much of a surprise. It's simply Rod Stewart trying to get a firm footing on some new ground, succeeding stupendously a couple times but more often falling a little short.
