Rod Stewart plans R&B album and possible Small Faces reunion

Rod Stewart told Reuters he plans to keep performing until 70, with an R&B album planned and a possible Small Faces reunion he is open to.

63 year old singer Rod Stewart has told Reuters that he plans to continue performing until he's 70, and that he has plenty of projects lined up to fill the next seven years. He said: "There is still this R&B album I want to do. There's a Country & Western album I'd love to do, although the record company doesn't want it. We are still in the throes of talking about it. I very much doubt whether we will get it done this year. [And] I'd love to make a movie, just for posterity".

Asked if his former band The Small Faces would ever reform (as guitarist Ronnie Wood has hinted that he would like them to), Stewart said: "I don't want to do a tour that goes on forever, and I don't think there are enough people out there who love the Faces. It was a great band, but was not as famous as the Police. But, I'll consider it".

He was also asked which newer bands he likes: "My daughter took me to see [Arcade Fire] at the Hollywood Bowl. They are probably one of the best bands I have seen. Then there is a really good British band called Kasabian. Whether they are going to keep it going as long as we have I don't know. But they are making good music".
