RIP to bassist Phil Chen. Passed away today from cancer at age 75. Thanks 😊 for the lifetime memories.

A voice gravelly with so much character, and Rod makes it look effortless. Then the man commands the stage, makes the effort to connect with his audience, and the shrieks of exuberance - a legend!

This is The Rod Stewart Band I want to remember !

This is the Rod Stewart that I miss!

I saw the Hot Leggs Tour in Louisville Kentucky at Freedom Hall Rod was awesome he gave me a night I have never forgotten Thanks Rod and GOD bless JIMMIE D in KY.

St. Louis' own Billy Peek on the Flying V..... I've been playing bass with Billy for over 20 years now and He's still Rockin' !

Now these are the performances I love to watch. Rod is actually smiling from ear to ear as he does what he does best, entertaining his audience while enjoying being on stage and showing off 😘😘😘

I'm jealous Melody Mains! Rod is one of my faves, but just about the only R&R star I haven't seen!

Without a doubt, one of the best 5 rock frontmen of all times. Charisma and attitude, with a voice no-one can even match.

Rod at his best. This is his greatest band he ever had.

God I love KZfaq......I was at this show, and here I am checking out the whole damn thing 35 years later! I was eighteen years old and high as a kite....what a great night.

Seen Rod live 3 times (80's). The man is a legend. This concert is great......he's great!......luv ya Rod :)

I love watching all his videos and listening to his music

Rod s great voice along with great guitar work make this fantastic!

Besides the Faces this was Rod's best band.

I have seen them all literally ..Rod stacked up with the greatest of the greats

What a great way to open a show. HOT LEGS!

He is one of my favorite singer! he is amazing

I love You Roderick David Stewart ❣️ from Indiana USA Woohoo next to Ohio Midwest of USA !❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️

Damn this man can sing !!!

Percy Sledge would be proud of how you sing his song If Loving you is wrong."

Rod wow Who is still here 2021? Damn got to love the vibes the enegry. What great times.

thank you!

Rod performing always loving and so fabulous, fantastic 👉👍💜💓💙💘😍😍😍👉⭐⭐⭐🎸🎸🎸

Carmine appice is absolutely phenomenal!!

Rod is the man.... Put on quite a show...

It’s cool getting to see behind the curtain before the show starts.

Rod Stewart humping the stage gets this old heart of mine pumping!

I love Carmine’s drumming so much. Groove central.

I was at this show! SO glad I can re-live it thanks to youtube!

Just superbly performed...this is when everyone in a band is major league talent.

At kunne være på toppen!!! I så mange år beviser bare, han er den bedste!!! I love Rod

He was and is a showman. I saw him this same year in Birmingham, AL. Most impressive concert I had every been to. So thankful he had the foresight to record this. It's a national treasure. Love you Rod then and now!

Rod Stewart’s best musical lineup ever!👏👏👏

Philip Chen !!! the bass man

I LOVE all of Rod’s music, but my all time fav song is on this concert, and the very song that made me a fan since i was 10 years old! If lovin you is wrong!! Best Rod song ever! ❤️

I WAS THERE , GREAT SHOW

THANK YOU for sharing this GEM! Rod at his late 70's Peak! Looks like 37 people are in desperate need of hearing aids!

Rod and Da ya think I am sexy were HUGE late 78 to about March of 79. How that dreck by the knack beat Da ya think...for the top song of 1979 just shows the disco backlash. Like another comment says being around music at this time was a great time indeed. We will never get artists like this again.

I love him I love him I LOVE HIM

I think there may only be 5 guys at this show..Rod's the man..

Thanks for the upload, I saw him 4/29/79 in Cincinnati it was my 13th birthday, first real area show. Have seen him 5 times total

I saw this line up at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne, Australia. Best line up and Phil Chen is a great pocket bass player, coming out to shine when needed. That is the sign of someone on top of his craft.

I had this on video after it was on TV so long ago. Wonderful to see this again.

This was such a HOT concert!! WOWZA

I saw this tour in Chicago. Good show.

The 1st time I saw RS was on this tour. Love him or hate him, this is a dramatic show opener into a great rocking tune! Unfortunately, this was the highlight! I saw him in Philadelphia. Instead of singing You'll Wear It Well, they played "Do ya Think I'm Sexy," TWICE! I never forgave him for it

Rod stewart ...big front-man in all of time

2 guitars, a great rhythm section and an awesome voice, what's not to love?

epic concert, big band! ROD IS THE MAN! rock'n'roll!!!

Billy Peek is rocking it

It would take 10 more years for me to watch the amazing Rod show...meanwhile, this is the time tracklist 00:00 Classic Rod Intro: The Stripper 01:06 Hot Legs 06:25 Tonight's The Night (It's Gonna Be Alright) 10:39 Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? 17:17 I Just Want to Make Love to You (Rolling Stones cover) 21:55 Blondes Have More Fun 25:56 Maggie May 32:00 If Loving You Is Wrong I Don't Want to Be Right 37:45 Wild Side Of Life 42:32 You're In My Heart (Final Acclaim) 46:55 Sweet Little Rock N Roller 51:07 Stay With Me (The Faces song) 55:42 Twisting The Night Away

I've heard so many groups try to do it. Exactly what Rod's doing right now as the whole arena is singing each word exactly as it should be to sung he's singing. Rumor has it. He was too drunk and forgot the lines and so the audience would sing those verses Yet. All in all I have to say Rod Stewart's the only one that really got full 100% participation from his audiences. Today. People just still try to do it but they never measure up. How much enthusiasm and the memory that these audiences knew all the words to all the songs. I'll just have tried but only Rod Stewart really succeed in that area. Why I have no idea?

Amazing show, Thanks.

Phil Chen on bass, what a cool dude!!!

I have seen him about 10x and he was like this most of them. One of my favorites. So much fun!

A classic! Thanks!

I remember watching this on laser disc. Its one of my fondest memories!!! Had to be in the early 80's... dam this makes me feel old...

son album "absolutely live" est un chef d'œuvre, un vrai rockeur et un vrai grand artiste, j'adore depuis que je suis gosse ;

Amazing xxxxx Your in my heart your in my soul xxxxxxx forever young

best band he ever had

Thanks so much for sharing this post . I love it ! Wonderful memories will always linger and be treasured.

god I love him

I saw this concert in NC & got so excited over Rod that I passed out.

Great 👍 😅

Just love him and the songs

I had this recorded on Betamax video. Great gig

Rock on.. :-) As a fan of yours. It´s been great to follow every of your steps. Remember when your trucks got stuck in the snow in Norway. You just requstested a new one. Loaded the most important stuff onto the new one. Yup you was half an hour late on stage. But there was ALSO free bar of champagne in the lobby for 2000 people when you took a brake.. To keep the party going. :-) Thank´s

Saw Rod Stewart on this tour at the Cow Palace, same set list as this one at the Forum, great show.

Thank you so much for this, I taped it off the telly onto VHS many years ago and must be 15 years since I've watched this great show. Got to see Rod at Birmingham NEC either 81 or 82.

I was there, not shure if it was that exact night because he sold out 2 or 3 nights, but for sure that tour at the forum. I loved the sound quality, the stage, etc.

Awesome! Thank you very much for sharing! :)

Saw this show in Detroit. If i remember right when they did stay with me Rod was kicking soccer balls out into the crowd. Great show. Would have loved to see the Faces tour A nod is as good as a wink....I was a little young.

Had a great backing band at the time. Pretty amusing how Phil Chen (Bass) and Rod sang Hot Legs together on his mike and how the way Phil Chen and Billy Peek (Guitar). Sang along with Rod on Sweet Little Rock And Roller. Gary Grainger(Guitar) only sang with Rod on the song Wild Side Of Life. Jim Cregan (Guitar) and Carmine Appice (Drums) did most of the backup singing.

Saw this show at Madison Square Garden. I remember the crowd booing when the lights went on right after this one hour set. No encore, nothing extra, just one hour of music.

I saw this tour in Houston. Great memories. Still have this on VHS

Thanks so much for the upload!

I love Rod!

Thank you for sharing this! I used to have it on video but it got lost in a move....

Dude I can feel the sound of the clubs in this show

Great post !

First time for me amazing. What a performer, high energy

Si mon amie a écouter toujours

RODERICK DAVID STEWART MI IDOLO DE JOVEN!!! BELLOS RECUERDOS!!!

He's a Legend singer and he's so sexy.My FOREVER YOUNG at HEART.

Sei un grande rod!

Un concierto cojonudo. De lo mejor de Rod Stewart en su tinta. Además he was born the same day of me, the 10 of january.

rod at his best and his best band by far

My/our generation (over 45ish to under 65ish) is/was so blessed to live through an era of amazing bands and personalities...I mean can anyone name 3 current relevant bands or personalities that can fill arenas night after night...and no you cant use the Stones or Springsteen or the Who...see my point...

BUENA MUSICA Rod Stewart y buen video

RIP Phil Chen.

During the Faces with woody he was totally cool costumewise, here he is dressed up glamrock 5 years past.

Billy,Billy,Billy

Al fin encontre este video, gracias!!! por subirlo!!!!!

He is the best! Long live to Rod’n’roll !

when i go to a rod show, this is what i expect to see. not that bullshit songbook.!!!

A real singer.

Full artist!!!!!!!!!

Mighty interesting start up music :) Great

Thnx!
