"Camouflage" is a studio album released by Rod Stewart on June 18, 1984 (see 1984 in music). It was Rod’s 13th studio album and was released on Warner Bros. Records (WEA 925 095-1). Three singles came from this album. They were “Infatuation”, “Some Guys Have All the Luck”, and a cover of the Free hit “All Right Now”.

Album information

All the tracks were recorded at Lion Share Studio in Los Angeles, CA. Grammy award winning producer Michael Omartian produced all the songs except “Bad for You”, which was self-produced by Rod. In the liner notes a disclaimer alludes to a reason behind this.

Critical reception

The album received similar reviews to its predecessor, "Body Wishes", although Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic called it "relatively better", due to a couple of strong singles in "Infatuation" and "Some Guys Have All The Luck". A review was not given in "Rolling Stone" magazine, but in the review for the album's successor, "Every Beat of My Heart", they called the album "overly slick".
