Ronnie Wood is never mentioned as one of the greatest guitarists (despite the fact that he is)....why> Coz he joined the Stones. If he had stayed with the FAces he would have been recognized.
At the time this was recorded, The Faces were clearly the greatest rock and roll band in the world, and I guaranty you, Rod Stewart will forever regret abondoning this band.
nothing to do with worship the best drummers in the world were and are more innovative than kenny jones who is at most a very basic standard rock drummer try listening to terry bozzio or neil peart or john bonham or better still more keith moon
Aw, you gotta love those guys, they're all amazing. And Rod's so much fun, right at the beginning he brought such a smile to my face and I still have it.
I like Mick Hucknall as the vocalist in Simply Red, but the Faces?!? I believe Chris Robinson (Black Crowes) or Nic Cester (Jet) would have been better choices. Rod...we love ya' man, but I don't think ya' got the chops anymore; so just go back to doing your "Tony Bennett" thing and we'll call if we need you...
Who in their right mind, no pun intended, could watch this footage of Kenney and afterward think him less of a drummer/wrong as a replacement for that burnt out fat fuck Keith Moon in the waning days of the Who?
FOOKIN' QUALITEH!
P.S. That ginger nut Sam Cooke wanna be Mick Fuck All, er, Hucknall is not, was not, and never WILL replace Rod as the lead vocalist of The Faces.
@epsteinsmutha1 You couldn't be more right, mate! Hucknall (though I liked your reference to him) has about as much charisma as a carrot. As a side note - that originally wasn't intended as a go at his hair but I must admit I've always much preferred looking at Rod's hair. It's so ironic that they have Hucknall because they're 'tired of waiting for Rod', but the reason Rod hasn't cleared time for them is because Woody is a slave to the Stones and will jump if ol' mother Jagger decides to tour.
@epsteinsmutha1 keith moon had a different style to kenny jones and the fact tthat he got fat doesnt mean he wasnt a better more innovative drummer. idiot!
@philnunn1969 Idiot? Lovely comeback, darling. Where did I say he was "a better[,] more innovative drummer?" Moon was a fucking embarrassment at the end of his life. Full stop. Kenney filled his shoes admirably, and at least Kenney could hold his liquor better.
If you take off your worship goggles, you might see more clearly.
Thanks for posting this. Never seen Ronnie Lane look like he wasn't having a good time before. Must've been tough for him knowing he was leaving the band.

@kapat45 True, Woody's buggered both ways, either Dame Mick or, well, Dame Mick.
Anyroad, Simply Red is simply not Rod.
Cheers!

If today's Bands only realised how much they need a frontman....like Rod!
This Band was sh*t hot, believe me, I talk from experience.
My first ever gig: Lewisham Odeon, December 1973 - a 13yr old gal's birthday dream come true.
Good time rock n roll at its best.
Have a brilliant DVD of old footage. And as the more decerning of us may say: these fells was the dog's...........! luv'd ya's. RIP Ronnie x
