Thanks for posting this great Rod Stewart classic. The sheet music for the original piano part on "Handbags and Gladrags" can be found at manymidi.com/sheetmusic.htm - a note-for-note transcription.

The best version of this song that I found was on mp3ify.com and you can download the mp3 or import it into itunes.

thanx! I did get the meaning of the song, but never exactly new what it ment. Must be couse its an 'old fashioned word'..

yeah, it was used much more in 50s and 60s English than it is today.

'gladrags' is (somewhat dated) informal term for stylish clothes. this song is anti-materialistic, hence why it's chosen for the title alongside 'handbags', since they're both fashionable items that the girl in the song spends her family's hard-earned money on instead of considering the more important things in life like education ('They told me you missed school today/so what i suggest you just throw them all away/The handbags and the gladrags/that your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy ya')
