Underrated by who ? Rolling stones' fans ?

Amen Brother

You need to get out more.

Me too.

Amen

Me too

So true

For me I go to The Who or MC5

Absolutely! The band has a loose-sloppy feel (not a complaint), and his bass playing is the glue. It is really the musical base of the band - the guitar is scratchy, the lead vocal scratchy, the background vocals scratchy, the bass is clear and carries the harmony to the vocal line. It is like he plays slightly behind the beat, which gives the whole band a rollicking bar-band feel.

A brilliant man. Dear to me and so many others im sure. ♥ Bless. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo

Tight and loose.

check out Rough Mix, a record he made with Pete Townshend, awsome!!!!

If you knew anything about him he would tell you quite the contrary. Saying "under-appreciated" about someone you claim to admire is the same as saying your opinion ain't worth a damn and that somehow you are better than he by displaying your "sympathy"! Think it through next time.

Depends what career you mean.

Depends which Rod you're talking about!? Rock Rod...Disco Rod...Old Man Rod. Or Rod the God.

charles wilson God bless you.

i'm with you charles, it's brilliant seeing & hearing bands that you grew up with, went to see or remember so well it seems like yesterday. I can no longer get around either, so closing my eyes can bring back alot of places, times, gigs & dear friends, some who are no longer here. XX

charles wilson Good luck Charles.

agree. Words cannot say the release with experience of such as this when pent up and unfulfilled. Thankyou.

Me too

I totally agree

Beam me up!

wow..........before it was released. That is sick

Northwestern University?

Saw them in 1969-70 at Pirates World in Dania, Florida. Really went to see Savoy Brown, but Faces went on first and no one wanted them to get off stage for Savoy Brown so they partied and played for 2 hours great show always remember.

@@dennisjohnson5271 I was at that show! Still have ticket stub

awesome!!

Me too, Young Man! Good taste you have.

robert glenn the younger generation thinks that our generation were made up of cavemen and cavewomen. They don't understand that we accomplished plenty without a computer, but we had to use snail mail and actually meet face to face. The world couldn't be global and that's an advantage of today, but the world was more local community oriented and people were connected in real face to face interaction, and that's today's loss because the more we connect on line, the less we connect in person it seems.

Well put, carfreelori. Today, virtually all of my interpersonal connections are online, this due in part to retirement, dealing with post-polio and lack of resources to travel as I would otherwise wish. Even my two brothers, whenever contacting me, do so online. And one lives less than two miles. When my mother was in the late stages of passing, I was informed so online and same with her death, it came via email, a phone call coming only later. However, I've made some wonderful friends across the US as well as England, Spain, Sweden and Brazil, something that would have been impossible when I was living my state of the art old school days. It's rather sad that I haven't a clue who my neighbor is but have daily chats with a buddy in Spain! The kid upstairs devotes nearly 15 hours per day online. He leaves only to run necessary errands. What a shame. He is all of 24 and should be out and about discovering his world.

+carfreelori Alienation complete today in the world

+robert glenn OK, certainly agreed, but look what a weath of fantastic music and movies is hidden in online chambers, only to be discovered by those with a curious mind... I know some 20 and 30 year old who "discovered" Led Zep this way. Unfortunately, they generally stop digging once they know a few big names, and can establish themselves as the one eyed king in the midst of their deaf dumb and blind colleagues of the same age. The internet allowed me to do from where I live (Antwerp Belgium) research in complete collections of 1950's music magazines on singer Sunny Gale etc. So, the cyber age certainly has a lot of cons, especially for those who knew the period before the TRS 80 & co., but it certainly also has a lot of advantages. People from different parts of the world communicating about their favorite music (even if you have to sift through a lot of mud) or disagreeing about it, sending each other links etc. But I agree, traveling each day in the commuter train from Antwerp to Brussels, it is really freaky: everyone bend over a blue screen or having headphones on etc. I'm not sure if it was very different in the 1970's: many commuters then were hiding behind their newspaper... It's rather a cultural thing: Flemish people (northern part of Belgium) is less talkative than the Walloons, who are living in the South. Much friendlier, more polite, even children, but of course let's not generalize. But having to hear about your mother's passing away through the computer... Frankly, that's "not done", that's in a chilling way rude and impolite... But that's the new mentality.... Look at some people dining together... with the mobile phone within reach.... And they're certainly not all doctors :)

Benoit Vanhees Excellent post. A wonderful read it is. You mentioned how technology separates humans from one another in any given age. I just now recall the myriad images I have of New York commuters riding the train into Manhattan, each of them shrouded from one another behind the New York Times, not one distinguishable face as all are hidden behind the headlines. Today, it's the same thing only high tech. The worst thing that ever happened to my family was the day dad brought home a TV stand with rollers. That night, he rolled it from the living room into the kitchen and dinner time was never the same.

Cannot agree more with all of this....

More white R and B than many back in the day

Definitely.

Yep, and the bass tone, and those drums, those keys and that voice…

Ronnie Wood had it going on back then

agreed on every point.. Ron Wood was great as part of the Faces. With the Stones he faded away, or could not assert himself. Rod Stewart was never better than with this band. Listen to 'the unlistenable teen pop "Young hearts beat free tonight'. then compare that to Maybe I'm Amazed'... its not even in the same universe.

Well, they never had a proper drummer and the songs weregreat but not the equal ofthe stones, also they got invoved with Sharon Osbournes dad, a terrible criminal and conman

@@jamesblonde2271 Actually it was The Small Faces who were with Don Arden. They parted ways with that thug when Marriott quit, before becoming The Faces, about the time Peter Grant quit Arden's agency and took the Yardbirds with him. Also, Kenny Jones was the drummer through it all and is still is a great drummer.

@@deanallen927 Kenny Jones is a bloody awful drummer, just ask Daltry and I'm very close with Jez Jones and even he wouldn't describe his dad as "great" accurate,yes, metronomic, perhaps but not inspired, not a swinger and not original. Boo, who you can see in the ichycoo park promo film, a band "friend" lives in Kentish town and to this day describes Kennys drumming as " he was a handsome boy".

@@deanallen927 Also Seve was a horrible junkie and Ian was the mosttalented musician in the group.

Agreed.

Just thinking the same thing...

Spot on. That bass is relentless and deep. RIP Plonk x

Damn straight

For me, this is the way bass should sound. I say that as a guitarist growing up in the 80s.

Sounds like we're close to the same age.. Same for me, 67 now.. This was just epic back in the day and it still is.

I love him also.....and the best looking!

Rod has a fantastic voice & he is SO HOT 🔥My father in law reminds me SO much of Rod.

Man has a sensational voice. God gave him a gift. Not sure I find him good looking. Saw him with his family on TV. Looks so different to other male relatives. We can keep a young attitude if we want it bad enough.

Amen.@@kimsurey6087

Rubbish

Alex Kerr Fuck you.

Vladimir Sánchez You don't know what is rock'n roll

Anna Brown

@@mollyleblanc7443 A great time to be young. I remember going to quite a few concerts back then. Also places like Portobello Road on a Saturday then into a pub. Very simple back then. Glad I was about then.

I agree, I mean I still believe that the 70’s were the best decade of music period. All of these greats were just getting started. We are so lucky.

Are today's drummers allowed to push the beat? Do I detect an illegal smile?

It's a Rug.

Now he changed a little ;)

Thank you faces, my brother had unkind words for you way back when an I missed out on you cause I believed BIB bro! Never again! You're GREAT!✨🎭

INDEED!

Rod Stewart is iconic. Tons of airplay over the years.

check out the jams with Jeff Beck

He was cool in this era, and sadly imho he kind of sold out after this and became very commercial. But he was very authentic originally.

@@MothGirl007 ikr, he was awesome in this era, then came Disco Rod, he lost me there. :-)

SeamanstienzIdonTgive AdaM...

Yes, they did like a beer or two, I have been led to believe.

Bobby G They also enjoyed their coke too with the exception of Kenny who never dabbed in drugs.. I just read Ian McLagans book,,,holy cow . I could not believe how much he spoke about how many drug they did. What tore this band apart was Rod Stewart. Ronnie Lane R.I.P never got to sing the songs he wrote and felt stiffed and was very unhappy. Rod recorded the best songs on his own albums. The rest is history.

kat Mats I agree with what you say about Ronnie Lane, I think they could have functioned perfectly as a four-piece with Plonk on lead vocals. It may have meant a reduction in showmanship without a standalone vocalist, but I don't think the music would have suffered.

Bobby G It would have been interesting if they would have stuck together and saw what came out of it. The Stones were eyeballing Wood at the time. Affectionately as you said Ronnie was called Plonk from The Small Faces days. Poor Ronnie and Steve Marriott with all the unpaid royalties lives would have been a better one . Seems Mac and Kenny did alright. To this day they are still going after what is owed somewhere around L10 Million and L15 Million. As far as Rod~~~~ I own Gasoline Alley and that is it. Never been a big fan of him once he left Faces. I have read although that he helped out Plonk with his medical bills along with Pete Townsend. Pete helped a great many brothers in a pinch. An unsaid hero. Good to have a conversation with ya.

Stevie Marriott God bless him was the hottest live show singer in rock history bar none.

Saw the same show back in the day, in New Orleans. Same bar! I’m surprised that no one ripped that off. Lmao!

Same show in Minneapolis. It was so cool. True Rock Star Status!

Same show in my mind and on this they call KZfaq 😂😹😂 Rock on!!🎸🥁 ✌ Thanks 4 posting this Sir!!

I know this is old, but I saw them at the Hollywood Bowl also. I remember the bar. I also remember Rod kicking soccer balls into the audience. I was front row because a friend of mine was in charge of the security and we could take any seats we wanted if they were empty. They called themselves "Peace Power". All bikers.

@@ronelliott87 Todd Rundgren did the same with a tour known as With A Twist back in 97

Look her up on Facebook

❤❤❤

Dragon13Loco Yes, this is the best of the best re Rod Stewart; I have a theory that he was advised to tone down his highly expressive side in the 80's but the truth is his absolute best performing came when he felt totally free to express in his way, which included a bit of connection to the softer, feminine side; I"m saying this was really, really good, and I would have loved to see where The Faces, with Rod Stewart, could have evolved to had they stayed together! I think Rod Stewart looks more happy in these performances than in some others even though they were still stellar. The best advice I would have given him, if I were his manager, would have been; don't reign in that expressive side because people are drawn in by that kind of authenticity. Know who you are, be who you are and don't change that if someone thinks it's wrong, because often time tells that you were right and they were wrong.

Indeed.

Can't say I had really ever listened to them before but...Wow! I am blown away by his bass playing/sound!

Listen to Debri

Great man.

Ronnie is the new Apollo in my bass pantheon (Willie Dixon is still Zeus). I need to design a super-cool Ronnie Lane T-shirt to help the world remember, what a happy, cool dude he was.

Hung like a horse too. What's not to like ? 😂😂😂

Was at that show. Correct on all counts. They brought the road crew out on stage for the encore.

Farout.

Was that the show at the old Labor Temple?

Get a life!

Absolutely!!! What a great bass player Ron has been RIP

Yes, very sad. I am so glad that there are better treatments for MS these days. My sister has that and she's thankfully doing rather well. Not as mobile as she used to be, but hanging in there. I'm a child of the 70s and miss groups like this, Humble Pie, etc.

@Ronnie Wood Woody if that’s really you, I am honored and thrilled. I was 13 yo when this video was shot and I had just purchased “A Nod Is A Wink...”and I was hooked. 50 years on and still hooked. Without question FACES are the four nicest people in Rock. I mean that sincerely . I wish you all Gods love and peace. From Ohio, thanks for the memories.

Now it's 65 as I watch again Harold....... ???? Who could not LOVE this classic low-down dirty raw rock n' roll, by fantastic musicians? I shake my head!!

They have no taste

***** Ha ha mind biz, I was commenting on the number of DISLIKES at 65, at the time I was watching this... that was what our conversation was about , how could people dislike this ?? That is all :))

rocker69ist They're Katy Perry fans.

345 as of 09-22-2020

So much groove and soul on that one, real rock n roll

Copy that

So very true.....

saw them around the same time. opened for savoy brown. man, they tore the house down.

I saw them in Reading too. Great band then

I saw them with Humble Pie. They were incredible. Rods finest hour, what a incredible showman. Between them and the Pie, I don't think many or were still the whole show. I would have loved to seen Rod & Ronnie when they played for Beck.

@@johncrowell6030 Humble Pie played at Lincoln as well.Dont think Stevie and Rod got on very well, the ego thing about the best vice obvs, but also they both had a thing with PP Arnold, which was an issue i think.

ProblemChimp you are right except that I would have loved to see The Faces have the same longevity as the Stones.

The Faces were good enough to shine the Stones' shoes.

ProblemChimp Hhappy

gordeaux no faces rocked

Agreed!

one of rocks first supergroup

I grew up with 80's rod stewart.had no idea he rocked like this til I was waaaay older.i am soooo glad I got a heads up from a buddy who said "man,rod used to rock hard back in the day!".to me tho,ronnie lane is the absolute highlight of the faces.one of the best bassists of all time in my book and a helluva songwriter,too!

shhhhhhhh, it was a secret .. lol

Super, melodic playing from Ronnie...Beautiful Indeed

OMG...Underrated seems the most popular word on youtube... Maybe life is underrated....

I know, sigh... But Ronnie was bloody good... I saw them... a long time ago... can’t remember which album but Rod was rocking a pink satin suit, they were definitely feeling very jolly, and were brilliant... a couple of songs ended differently than when they started, but the crowd ate it up. Certainly a one of a kind band...

I'm not a musician but it sounds to me like everything is turned up so loud its creating a fuzzy sound like his amp speakers may burst at any moment (in a good way).

@@neilwhitaker6284 combination of amps, the pre amp gain just overdriving a bit, and his picking technique, and Ronnie used a pick which really gave a lot of attack to the sound, most bass players used their fingers which gave a softer fuller sound ... Personally I think he had one of the greatest bass sounds ever, that swampy, falling down the stairs kind fo thing, fitted the Faces perfectly

Agreed on Ronnie's sound here. He's up nice and greasy in the mix and clearly having a blast.

@Ronnie Wood thanks for replying to my comment. Stay safe my friend

Amen

Exactly what I was gonna say ! Awesome bass sound. But what the hell kind is it ?

MWL4466 It's a Zemaitis bass

Fredrockroll Great sound ! Any idea what amp he's pushing it through ?

Mr geht es genau so. Bin 62 Jahre. Rod & Ron.Perfekt.

Better late than never. Best band ever

I think he's only using a silver face Fender Princeton Reverb cranked up ... no effects ... incredible
