However, on 23 January 2009, a spokesman for Rod Stewart denied there were any plans for a 2009 Faces reunion tour. In 2020, Rod Stewart reunited with Ronnie Wood and Kenney Jones to perform "Stay With Me" as the finale of that years Brit Awards Ceremony. They recorded a few tracks for another studio album, but had lost enthusiasm and their final release as a group was the late 1974 UK Top 20 hit " You Can Make Me Dance, Sing or Anything ".

A unique early mix of "Had Me a Real Good Time" appeared as a single ahead of the LP in November 1970, backed with the non-album instrumental "Rear Wheel Skid". El Secreto Del Alfajor, a musical project with a penchant for blending folk and rock influences, presents two captivating tracks from their debut album. Self-produced, 1971's "Long Player" deserved credit for the fact the band had found a unique sound (albeit it was boozy and frequently sloppy) and a unique image (boozy and frequently sloppy). Their back-to-basics rock and roll sound was cited as influential by punk rock bands, such as the Damned and the Sex Pistols.The 45 version featured a studio take, while the album captured a live performance at New York's Fillmore East. Among their most successful songs were "Had Me a Real Good Time", their breakthrough UK hit " Stay with Me ", "Cindy Incidentally" and " Pool Hall Richard ".

The 2015 reissue replicates the US edition of the LP, containing minor edits not present on the UK original, most noticeably the omission of Stewart shouting "That's yer lot! A somewhat tighter and less ramshackle version of the debut album, with a really nice cover of Maybe I'm Amazed acting as its lynchpin. On August 28, 2015, the album was reissued in remastered form on vinyl, and remastered and expanded on CD as part of the box set (along with the rest of the Faces catalogue of studio recordings) 1970–1975: You Can Make Me Dance, Sing Or Anything.

Jones joined the Who after the death of Keith Moon ; [12] McLagan stated in a 2004 interview that Townshend also asked him to join the Who, but he had already promised Keith Richards that he would tour as a Rolling Stones sideman.

Faces (sometimes erroneously known as The Faces) are an English rock band formed in 1969 by members of the Small Faces after Steve Marriott left that group to form Humble Pie. Stewart was scheduled to perform with the rest of the band, but was unable to do so at the last minute due to illness; he was replaced by Hucknall. I suppose like many people I bought this album AFTER "A Nod's As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse" and to be honest at the time, felt short-changed with the plain grey cardboard sleeve. Unfortunately they never got much airplay in the States in their time and they were shamefully overlooked. The Faces second album gets rave reviews from most critics and fans, but once again I'm apparently in the minority.

If your a lover of Classic rock I would strongly recommend just getting all 4 "Faces" album's they are all just that good! Ooh La La is the fourth and final studio album by the English rock band Faces , released in March 1973. Making the Faces' four-ring circus even more unwieldy were problems with the equipment at Morgan Sound, the London studio where the band tracked the majority of Long Player. Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood and Kenney Jones performed a short set at Hurtwood Polo Club on 5 September 2015 for charity, following their brief reunion at Rod Stewart's private party for his 70th birthday in January of that year.

I’m also not big on the generic pub rock of Had Me A Real Good Time while the ragged On The Beach is shockingly produced and sounds like a demo. When it comes to the Faces, the band’s first album should be viewed through the prism of its title: FIRST STEP. One of the funny things about their cover is everyone gives Stewart credit for tearing the crap out of the tune, but if you pay attention, Stewart and Lane share lead vocals.

Richmond sounds like an Americana standard but is another Lane original, the kind of song Keith Richards wishes he wrote, filled with more great guitar work and an appealing, unhurried optimism to the music despite the ambiguity of the lyrics.Propelled by a nifty little guitar from Wood and a catchy chorus, 'Bad In Ruin' was one of their better, if overlooked rockers.

Also recorded during this period was the band's cover of the Temptations' " (I Know) I'm Losing You" which later appeared on lead singer Rod Stewart's solo album Every Picture Tells a Story rather than on a Faces release.
