  • Really rather glorious, this. Rodlington Stewart with Ronnie Lane, Ronnie Wood, Ian McLagan and Kenney Jones tearing the arse out of Macca's 'Maybe I'm Amazed' in 1972. Marvellous as the original is, this really has something to it.

      That's truly so sweet....nothing wrong with blokes getting emotional on occasions.
      This cover is absolutely outstanding.....and the half drunk swagger they have is pure and natural.
      Before the internet and social media made everyone an immediate star (in their eyes anyway), that kind of bravodo was the norm from the 60's to the 90's.
      It's still there with many bands........but the amount of nonsense music that the younger generations are sucking up, is having a detrimental effect on youth culture, being part of a new scene, and individualism.
      But at least we have our memories, and we're there during the times when music was pure and un-filtered!

There is an awesome video here on youtube from The Faces playing Wembley stadium (1986?) where Ronnie Lane is seated on stage with only a microphone. He was already in the late stages of the disease. But you could see the love his bandmates and the crowd had for him in that performance.

    DJ John Peel rated a Faces gig in Sunderland 1973 as the best live show he ever saw. You get a feel for that in this performance. A band who were much greater than the sum of their parts. Rod Stewart is much better for having to fit in with a group who are his equal, rather than him carrying the whole show as the 'star'.

      Got it in one. the tragic thing is both Stewart and lane later regretted what happened.

The decline of a graet singer and essentially the end of a phenomenal bassist (notwithstanding his talents as singer and writer)

      Saw them live but frankly, the best part of the show was when the band was just jamming the blues and sliding it up to Rock and Roll and then back again. I was in awe of their talent. Rod wasn't even on the stage yet. :)

      It's drool time , I was a lucky boy at 18 1971 we just moved to south England and rod and the faces were playing at the local opera house , boscombe , Bournemouth , U.K. Me and a couple of buds banged on the back stage door and the roadies let us in , I'm leaning on the PA system looking out over a sea of women , brilliant !

    what a joy to hear the faces live again. technology allows us to share so many great experiences from the past, but it's also helped kill musicianship and live music. pre internet, pre-mtv, we used to just get an album and wear out the groves playing it. if one of your bands would finally come to town, the show was an event that you and your friends would be excited about for months before and after. we didn't know it was a fleeting era at the time

    Ronnie Lane is really bringing a lot to this one. Him and Rod's voice is a great contrast.

      I agree. They compliment each other wonderfully. Kind of a Waters/Gilmour dynamic

    I'm 50 but my brothers and sister were 7,8,9 years older than me so I grew up listening to these bands and my sister had crush on Rod Stewart. Just watching this reminds of the days of true bands before big corporations ruined it. If I could go back I would even though I listened most of the time to heavier bands, these guys had it all. I also miss the days of AM radio where they played a little of everything.
