Rod Stewart preps first holiday album

Rod Stewart, who just signed a multi-album deal with Universal Music Group, will release his first holiday collection, Merry Christmas, Baby, this fall, coinciding with the publication of his Random House memoir.

The disc, produced by David Foster, promises superstar duets with such guests as Michael Buble and Cee Lo Green, featured on the title track.

Stewart reunites with Stevie Nicks on their Heart Soul tour in July and resumes his residency at Caesars Palace in September.
