CD Reviews

A Concise Collection of Faces' Essentials
Steve Vrana | Aurora, NE | 01/26/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"There was a time in the early Seventies when the Faces gave the Rolling Stones a run for their money as the World's Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band. During their all too brief career, the Faces released only four studio albums and they are all thoroughly represented on this two-disc 30-track collection. [Thankfully there are no tracks from 1974's lackluster live album COAST TO COAST.]



THE DEFINITIVE ROCK COLLECTION duplicates all 19 tracks from 1999's THE BEST OF FACES and adds additional album tracks. Among the new additions are the instrumental "Pineapple and the Monkey" from FIRST STEP that features some amazing slide work from Ron Wood. "Maybe I'm Amazed," from LONG PLAYER, takes McCartney's ballad and turns it into a gut-wrenching plea. Also included is "Jodie," an outtake from the OOH LA LA sessions, along with two non-album singles, "Pool Hall Richard" and "You Can Make Me Dance, Sing, or Anything," both recorded after Ronnie Lane had left the band.



If you're a true Faces fanatic, you should settle for nothing less than 2004's essential 4-disc FIVE GUYS WALK INTO A BAR..., which duplicates everything found here. But if you're on a budget and want more than the basics, THE DEFINITIVE ROCK COLLECTION is a superb collection."

"My son saw this cd in a store in AZ and when he went to buy it, it was gone. Well, I know I can find anything on Amazon, so I ordered it for him. He says it is "fantastic"."
