The Faces
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.
mostly
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.
Good
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.
