Mandolin Wind chords by Rod Stewart

Mandolin Wind is a track on Rod Stewart's third solo album Every Picture Tells a Story, released in the middle of 1971. It was the only track on Every Picture Tells a Story that Stewart composed by himself (the album's title track was co-written with Ronnie Wood). The song tells the story from the point of view of an aging farmer husband - as a tribute to his loyal wife who stays by his side during a horrendous winter on the farm. Ray Jackson of the British folk/rock group Lindisfarne played the mandolin on this track. Stewart forgot Jackson's name and referred to him as "the mandolin player in Lindisfarne" on the album sleeve credits. Read more on Last.fm.
