The Best of Rod Stewart is a compilation album of songs by Rod Stewart released on Mercury Records in 1976 to complete Stewart’s contract before switching labels to Warner Bros. and moving to The United States. It includes tracks from all his Mercury albums and some non-album singles from the same time period.

Release

The Best of Rod Stewart was released as a double album. It was re-released on Compact Disc in 1998 with all 18 tracks on a single disc. In order to fit the album onto one 80-minute CD, "Maggie May" was edited from 5:46 to 5:14, and the album version of "It's All Over Now" (6:23) was replaced with the single version (3:35).

"Oh! No Not My Baby" and was originally released, with its B-side "Jodie" being credited to Stewart's band Faces. All other tracks were from previously released Rod Stewart solo albums. The original compilation reached #18 in the UK and #19 on the US charts.
