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.

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

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.

@epsteinsmutha1 classic no more to be said

[TheThepurplebird]

@philnunn1969 - Oh puleeeeze, let's drop the name game and just enjoy this great performance!

[philnunn1969]

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

[epsteinsmutha1]

@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.

Cunt.

[philnunn1969]

@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!

Light the fuse and get out of the way lads, this is called rock and roll, and this lot did it as well as anyone.
