Engineers include: Gabby Garcia, Jerry Masters, Steve Melton.Recorded at A&R, New York, New York; Criteria, Miami, Florida; Wally Heider, Los Angeles, California; Hi Recording and Muscle Shoals Sound, Alabama.All tracks have been digitally remastered.None of Rod Stewart's many self re-inventions has been half-hearted, least of all the full-fledged adoption of the full-on electric rock of 1975's ATLANTIC CROSSING. This album saw Stewart moving past the folk and blues of some of his past work, trading it in for some brash saxophones and jumpy R&B-tinged rhythms. AC features a host of well-known Yank studio cats, including guitarist Steve Cropper (whose contribution was also compositional), producer Tom Dowd, and the Memphis Horns, who all lend an able hand in helping Stewart leave his UK roots behind.The transition at the heart of ATLANTIC CROSSING was a radical musical departure. "Three Time Loser" is a slick rock number, filled with ripping leads, saxophones, and explicit sexual subject matter. From the reggae groove of "Alright For An Hour" to the softer "Slow Half," which features Stewart's version of Crazy Horse's "I Don't Want To Talk About It," ATLANTIC CROSSING catches Rod Stewart as he jumps headlong into another style, one of many directional changes in his ever-continuing journey into legend. | |||||||||||||
Reviews  Rod Stewart - Atlantic Crossing precurser to rods disco era, a turning point in rods career. his reputation was put on the line as he sold out to america. some good songs still on this album and the voice is brilliant. I think most of his earlier work is better than this but still a must for any pop/rock collection. well worth a couple of quid off ebay. 71/2 out of ten Review ID: 10000000006453013 Was this review helpful?
