Vagabond Heart is the sixteenth studio album by British recording artist Rod Stewart, released on 25 March 1991 by Warner Bros. Records.[16] The album reached No. 10 in the US, and reached No. 2 in the UK. The album features five singles, among them a cover of Robbie Robertson's song "Broken Arrow" (No. 20 in the US) and Van Morrison's song "Have I Told You Lately", which would become a hit two years later (in a live version), and is Stewart's most recent top five solo hit in the US and the UK. The two biggest hits from the album were "Rhythm of My Heart" (No. 3 in the UK/No. 5 in the US) and "The Motown Song" (No. 10 in the UK and US). The latter song features with Steve Lukather, David Paich, Steve Porcaro and Jeff Porcaro—nearly all of the band Toto.

The "Vagabond Heart Tour" was made available on video in 1992, shot during a concert in Los Angeles on Valentine's Day.[17]
