Still the Same... Great Rock Classics of Our Time is the 24th album by Rod Stewart, released on 10 October 2006. After four years of success singing pop standards from the Great American Songbook, Still the Same was composed of classic rock covers.

The album is produced by Clive Davis and John Shanks (the former also produced the American Songbook albums) and includes rock milestones from the last four decades, including Bonnie Tyler 's "It's a Heartache", Badfinger's "Day After Day" and Creedence Clearwater Revival's classic "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?", which was picked as the first single from the album.

The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 albums chart with 184,000 copies sold, making it his fifth top 5 and second number-one debut in three years. Stewart said he was "extremely happy" with the accomplishment. The album also reached number one on the New Zealand RIANZ albums chart and was certified 2× Platinum for sales of 30,000 copies.
