Product Details

Before they were the band that made every bar feel like a party, the Small Faces were regrouping after Steve Marriott's departure, drafting in Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood and figuring out what they'd become. These recordings catch that transformation mid-stumble, a loose and hungry five-piece still finding the swagger that would define their early-seventies run. Raw tape doesn't lie, and this one tells the whole story.

Take early steps back to 1960s London with Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones, Ronnie Lane and Ian McLagan to the Faces' first and previously unheard recording session at Olympic Studios in Barnes. Walk by the River Thames to Bermondsey to hear rehearsals in The Rolling Stones' warehouse, the earliest recordings of the Faces captured in all their raucous glory on the band's own cassette tapes. Hear the Faces before they took the First Step!
