the faces


this isn't Faces orginal song (cover of the motown band the Temptations) but this performance roooocks!
the Faces were English band formed in '69 with young Rod Stewart who at the time played really good rock tunes. you can also see mr Ronnie fuckin' Wood (do i have have to tell who is he?!)
they toured around the world between '70-'75 and became famous for their live shows (energetic, entertaining and on high musical standards)
the Faces broke up after 6 years but they are considered one of most influencial bands
(G'n R, Sex Pistols, Black Crows etc.) after split Ronnie joined Stones, Rod went solo, drummer Kenney Jones joined the Who, Ian McLagan (organs) was know for his session work and Ronnie Lane (bass) formed Ronnie Lane Slim Chance.
they reunite in 2009 for one gig but Rod didn't take part in it, and Ronnie Lane (R.I.P.) was replaced with Bill Wyman.
in 2010 Faces reunite again to play few festival and world tour in 2011, Rod Stewart won't be part of it again... Mick Hucknall from Simple Red take his duties and Glen Matlock will play bass guitar.
