to a Blind Horse — and its arrival in November 1971 signaled the band's true arrival as a transatlantic success story.

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". The Rolling Stones" actually drafted Ron Wood into their band as the "Faces" dissolved when Rod left for his solo career. You may consider Long Player as well a well-spirited, good-humoured 100% real set of back-to-basics rock as one of the biggest blah blah's you have heard for a long while.On 23 March, the Faces announced that they would reunite with Rod Stewart to play at the induction ceremony for the first time in 19 years. The album's companion singles (aside from the unique mix of "Had Me a Real Good Time" as detailed above) were included in the box set on an exclusive CD of rarities. Apart from that the bar there was open 24 hours a day so anytime anything went wrong it was, ‘Let’s go down and have a drink while they’re mending it,’ and that went on for months.

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.That said, there were few early-'70s bands that seemed to have as much fun with their stardom as Rod Stewart and the Faces.

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. Although Stewart's vocals were arguably the most immediately identifiable aspect of the Faces' sound, the band didn't really have a leader, per se — their distinct chemistry was wholly dependent on each member's equal contributions, and they functioned, more or less, as a creative democracy.Had Me a Real Good Time' was a typical boozy Faces rocker - loose and not particularly melodic, but fun in a shambling kind of way. The Faces second album gets rave reviews from most critics and fans, but once again I'm apparently in the minority. Fissinger’s musical approach is refreshingly uncomplicated, allowing the beauty of the song’s simplicity to shine through. 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. Moreover, it's my opinion that it is one of the best British country songs ever produced in the UK - only "Labelled With Love" (Squeeze); "What Made Milwaukee Famous [Has Made A Loser Out Of Me] (Rod Stewart) and "Faraway Eyes" (The Rolling Stones) have bettered this.

Like, don't get me wrong, this is a fine enough listen and there's nothing on here I can say I didn't like. Two tracks, "Maybe I'm Amazed" and "I Feel So Good", were recorded live at the Fillmore East, New York City, on 10 November 1970.The percussion free Sweet Lady Mary is even better, one of The Faces’ best songs, uneventful across its near-six minutes but terrific anyway thanks to the relaxing vibe created by McLagan’s subtle organ and Wood’s beguiling pedal steel. The Faces’ second is a frustrating affair, beginning like it’s going to improve on the debut before a half-baked second act brings it crashing down into forgettable mediocrity. In 2010-2011 a brief reunion tour occurred with Mick Hucknall and Glen Matlock on vocals and bass respectively. If the song is titled "Had Me a Real Good Time" is really having a real good time (5:51 that is), unquestionably.
