The Faces

the_authority [Edit] [Delete] 3 replies 15:25, 28 March '06

anyone a fan of the band?

the three small faces that steve marriott left in the lurch in 1969 formed a band with rod stewart and ronnie wood after the jeff beck group split. great band, similar to the stones but i prefer them in many ways.

they were very influential on punk. often overlooked i think.

    overshadowed by the greater chart success and influence of the Small Faces to begin with. Rod's solo success and cabaret shite also aided in their lack of memorability.

  • More of a Small Faces fan, to be honest.

    Could never really love Rod's voice. Give me Steve Marriott any day. Not saying The Faces weren't good, but they were kind of like a Championship level Stones, whereas The Small Faces were like Wigan Athletic punching above their weight in the Premiership.

      analogy. In any other situation the Small Faces would have made a much bigger impact. Spose its hard when you're contemporaries are The Beatles, Stones, Who, and Pink Floyd.
