Title: Surprisingly Good
Review: Outside of Itchycoo Park, I never heard much Faces music until I got Long Player. It was horrible, so when I got hold of this CD, I wondered if it would stink just as bad. Turns out it was quite a surprise. This didn't sound anything like Long Player and impressed me right away.This is not heavy rock, but almost psychedelic, almost folk, almost a lot of things. The songs are catchy and the vocals are not grating or annoying. The musicianship is outstanding and it doesn't sound sloppy or half-baked. It also tells a story, as with the Cockney narration throughout.I can actually remember melodies after the first listen. That is a very good sign in my book.It isn't my normal thing, but for not being a big fan of this type of music, they impressed me anyway.This album is a lost classic. Highly recommended.
