While they were together, the Faces never sold that many records and were never considered as important as the Stones, yet their music has proven extremely influential over the years. On Long Player and A Nod Is as Good as a Wink, the Faces were a well-oiled machine at the peak of their powers. Here they're trying to rev up -- they get there, but it's possible to hear the effort, as some of th...
MUSIC NEWS - The Faces reformed last night (October 26) in the UK for a special charity gig at the Royal Albert Hall, without Rod Stewart participating, but Kenney Jones told the BBC that a full reunion is very likely. On vocals, Rod was replaced at the concert by guest performers that including Mick Hucknall (Simply Red), Mel C and Kiki Dee with the line-up of Ian McLagan, Rolling St
Back in November Faces co-frontmen Ronnie Wood and Rod Stewart announced the band's reunion promising a whole album's worth of new material, the band's first since 1973's Ooh La La. More details on that album have leaked today, most notably that Red Hot Chilil Peppers bassist Flea would sit in on the forthcoming Faces reunion tour. Wood and Stewart reportedly spent Christmas and New Years toget...
The MOG is unually quiet of late...not to denigrate those who've posted, but MOGgers only produces what? two pages for today? TWO PAGES?.....Gee, but I'd give the world to see that old gang of mine......
All Music Album Review:It wasn't all over but the shouting, but the Faces sure weren't thriving when they released their last album, Ooh La La, in 1973. The problem, of course, was Rod Stewart, who had turned into a superstar, causing innumerable tensions within the band. He had yet to decamp to America, had yet to turn to pop instead of rock & roll, but he was on the cusp of that sea change. N...
When Steve Marriott left the Small Faces in 1969, the three remaining members brought in guitarist Ron Wood and lead singer Rod Stewart to complete the lineup and changed their name to the Faces, which was only appropriate since the group now only slightly resembled the mod-pop group of the past. Instead, the Faces were a rough, sloppy rock & roll band, able to pound out a rocker like "Had Me a...
One of the best album titles ever and quite a good listen as well. Ronnie Lane takes the vocals on this one. Take a trip back and rock this Stonezy track. Sounds great cranked to 11 :)
I think that out of all of the groups that I have heard that none quite exhibited the loose swagger that can make rock and roll so great than Britain's late, lamented Faces. Next Sunday, three of the five are set to take the stage at the Helping the Heart of Music show benefitting the PRS for Music Members Benevolent Fund. As such, I felt it appropriate to post a few highlights of the group's 2...
Billboard has revealed that the Faces are going on the road but without lead Rod Stewart.Keyboardist Ian McLagan talked to the magazine about the band's plans, saying they are looking at a spring tour, but Stewart won't be coming along. "If we don't do it very soon, one of us is gonna check out. I'm 64, for chrissakes! We've been waiting and waiting for Rod to say yes; now he's finally said n...
MUSIC NEWS - Faces keyboard player Ian McLagan recently confirmed that the reported rehearsals of the re-formed The Faces '09 reunion went well. On his official website, mscspages.com , McLagan posted;'The rehearsals were a lot of fun, everybody was in fine form and things are looking good for a gig or two next year, but these things take time to work out and I'm just going to wait until...
The U.K. paper The Sun says that the reformed Faces have already recorded their first album in thirty years. Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones, Ian McLagan and an unnamed bass player supposedly were inspired after a trip together to Costa Rica, Bermuda and Miami. Meanwhile, the Daily Mirror tempers that a bit by saying that Stewart and Wood are done writing the songs for the album, which...
After months of speculation, The Faces are set to reunite for rehearsals with a view to a full reformation. Frontman Rod Stewart told Raysgigs.com that all the original members aside from late bassist Ronnie Lane, who died in 1997, were set to reconvene on Monday (November 17) to run through their old hits. The singer, who spoke at the Claridges Bar 10th anniversary party in Britain, said
Ron Wood has confirmed that Faces rehearsals have been taking place and that they will tour next year. Ronnie Lane's replacement undecided — it's looking like it will be Rod Stewarts's touring bassist, Conrad Korsch, but apparently Flea is among those interested. Gag me with a tube sock. Rod's better days: No tag for this post.
