When this was released in 1971, the Faces also released LONG PLAYER (following the dropping of "Small" from the band's name) and frontman Rod Stewart released the seminal EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY. The three-album output was especially remarkable for the Faces, as the band was more known for skirt-chasing and carousing than recording music. NOD found the Faces fusing together a grittier blues and soul sound than on past efforts, which were marked by a rather modish sound and Stewart's then-folkier leanings.
The group includes enough heartfelt ruminations to add a sentimental edge to the otherwise rip-roaring mix of material. Among the latter class of songs are a shambling cover of Chuck Berry's "Memphis, Tennessee" and "Stay With Me," the Faces' only hit and the quintessential groupie kiss-off. Stewart's talents as a balladeer are no less effective, with songs like the poignant "Love Lives Here" and the Ronnie Lane-penned duet "Debris," an unheralded classic every bit as emotionally devastating as "Wild Horses." Lane's singing and songwriting also shine on the barroom anthem "Last Orders Please" and the whimsically swaggering "You're So Rude," a song about getting caught in a compromising position with a sassy girlfriend during a family visit.
Faces: Ron Wood (vocals, guitar); Rod Stewart (vocals); Ian McLagan (keyboards); Ronnie Lane (bass instrument); Kenny Jones (drums).
Personnel: Ronnie Wood (guitar); Kenney Jones (drums).

One of THE best rock & roll recordings of all time! These guys were locked in one hell of a groove, one which the likes of God has never heard before.

 Classic Rock n' Roll
Just to buy this for the sake of hearing "Stay With Me" is worth the price of admission alone. A great album by one of the original party bands.

What hasn't been said about the Faces before? Great live drunks w/guitars! Rod at his best, and the best party on earth. Saw em' twice, once w/Rory Gallagher opening and the other w/Thin Lizzy. Talk about great shows! People forget how great both Ronnie Lane and Ron Wood were in this group. Who do you think did the blue print for the Black Crowes and the rest of the copy-brats?

What more can I say here? Get it and crank it up especially when you get to "Stay With Me" track. They just don't make bands like this anymore. Buy it, you won't regret it. It will fire up some good memories for you.
I rest my case.

On their second album Long Player, the Faces truly gel -- which isn't quite the same thing as having the band straighten up and fly right because in many ways this is album is even more ragged than their debut, with tracks that sound like they were recorded through a shoebox thrown up against a couple of haphazardly placed live cuts. But if the album seems pieced together from a few different sources, the band itself all seems to be coming from the same place, turning into a ferocious rock & roll band who, on their best day, could wrestle the title of greatest rock & roll band away from the Stones. Certainly, the sheer force of the nine-minute jam on Big Bill Broonzy's "I Feel So Good" proves that, but what's more remarkable is how the band are dovetailing as songwriters, ...

Nod Is As Good As A Wink...To A Blind Horse CD music
$12.15
After taking a break and immersing himself in a 30-minute, one-take piano piece that resulted in 2004's An Accidental Memory in Case of Death, Matthew Cooper (aka Eluvium) returns to forms and ideas he started to flesh out with Lambent Material and brings them to a more fully realized state throughout Talk Amongst the Trees. The album is longer than Lambent and employs the same types of instrumentation, but takes it in a more focused and emotionally charged direction. It's experimental music in the vein of Eno, Kevin Shields and Max Richter to be sure -- but like these aforementioned composers, it's not the process or concept that is the main concern, but the effect the music has on Cooper, and in turn, on his audience. ...
