So, how shall I describe this CD now now? I try it this way: Of course, I knew the name of the band "Faces" (or the predecessor band Small Faces) and also one or two songs. Above all, I knew R. Wood (and his current band) and R. Stewart. And of course, you can compare the faces a little with the music of the Stones and the solo activity of Mr. Rod Stewart, but only conditionally. This band sounds more complex and earthy. Sure, it's rock and roll, it's blues-rock from England and you can hear very clearly the 70's through ... but it's also a little more! Above all, a stand-alone tape! This Best Of - CD gives a good average, is very varied and just really good!
So a recommendation for lovers of good, handmade rock music from the seventies. I think the band unique and was surpised really positive. This compilation is a good introduction to the music of Faces! But clearly, the tastes are different! That is why perhaps listen beforehand and form his own opinion!
The band had indeed the reputation of a party band! That I can not confirm now! But I think the music is simply too good! Hear Everything Else! :-) Greetings!
