By the time Faces frontman Rod Stewart delivered the follow-up to his immensely popular third solo album Every Picture Tells a Story in the early '70s, inner tensions had arisen within the band, who felt the singer was neglecting the project in favor of his own career. Similar in style to his previous releases, 1972's Never a Dull Moment largely featured contributions by Faces members Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones, and Ronnie Lane, as well as a handful of covers by Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, and Sam Cooke. One of those was covers was "I'd Rather Go Blind," a blues and soul classic written by Ellington Jordan and Billy Foster, which was first recorded by Etta James in 1967. For his 1972 album version, Stewart revamped the song into a slightly longer, slow-burning electric blues number that perfectly reflected the bitter sense of loss in the lyrics. Despite not having been released as a single, the track became a fan favorite and made its way to several compilations by the artist.
