Great song, captures the spirit of blues rock around 1970 perfectly. It took two guys (Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood) to replace Steve Marriott. That tells all about what a musician Steve was. RIP!
Everybody lively on stage, but what thrills me the most is Rod's entry, the first note he sings out. Hits it wirh dreamlike certainty and raw power, and he keeps the song on a serious level while the other are not that focused. But the way they enjoy themselves makes the whole thing enjoyable, too. I just love it.
It's so.sad to think that the music of this era on through the mid 1970s will never return. All the things that led to its creation are no more. Society has changed drastically and in ways that are far worse than could have been imagined and thus it is reflected in the music we have today. As they say, art reflects the society from which it originates.
Well, you could say exactly the same thing about the art from any era. You can bet your life that people in forty or fifty years (if man is still alive) will be saying it about today. Which ought to make you think, if you're capable.
@SM-dt1pr Well of course, I think that was implied in what I wrote. Sometimes it isn't necessary or prudent to explain everything in minute detail especially today since most cannot handle reading more than a few words, let alone a sentence or two. But the point is that we must focus on the here and now, what we are doing, what we have been doing that has led us thus far, and where we can foresee it leading. us in the future based on examining the results of past behavior. These were very simple concepts I learned in my very first year of art history alone. I wouldn't dare elaborate on those things I learned afterwards, possibly because it would bore most to tears, frighten the rest, and those who refuse to believe, or whose inherent biases and selfish tendencies wouldn't let them, simply deny outright. We see this taking place en masse today especially since the Fairness Doctrine was undone in the 1980s and the Telecommunication Acts of the 1990s was signed. Both of which has led to the media compression and ownership by only six major multinationals since. Being entirely for profit entities, whose best interest do you believe they serve? The masses? History would prove entirely otherwise. Something the rest of the world knows, understands, and does it’s best not to repeat (often without success). But since many American today are more than willing and accepting of the propaganda that higher education is silly, useless, needless, etc., and have been increasingly so since the 1980s, this is where we are. We are now two generations into a degradation of thinking from which we suffer from and will not be resolved. Even if it were to be it would take far more than two generations and a concerted continuance of effort by the masses to want to do so. That isn’t even anywhere on our minds. Most are far too concerned with living their “best lives”. Then there is this idea that trade is the only useful knowledge while failing to understand that yes, traditional trades like carpentry, plumbing, etc., are useful or that this now being a vastly new era has other trades to include as well. These new trades are technologically based; computing, engineering, medicine, and some of the hard sciences, etc. Just because they are trades does not make them any less important, valuable, or even easier to study but trades they are. Their scope of education is high, low, and equal with little necessity of expansive thinking beyond that. This is the difference between the traditional liberal arts that had been the reason for university since the 15th century. And had it not been for that traditional scope of education, the U.S as we have been taught to think of it would never have been possible, let alone come to existence. All that we claim to stand for originates from the results of that type of educating and the thinking it fostered. Again, most Americans have been taught to deride the liberal arts being given to thinking that they are worthless, fanciful, and simple. But then I challenge anyone to major in, let alone take a beginning class in Logic, Philosophies, Languages (any), English Literature, Anthropology, Religions, History, etc. They along with most other LA majors are rated as amongst the most academically difficult and stressful and all encompassing. And yes, these things are measurable as they need to be. This is how universities determine who can be accepted into which programs based on S.A.T. scores, previous academic histories, etc. They don’t just toss dice down the hallway or hold a lottery. But there are not so good reasons why the LA became demonized beginning in the 1970s. In fact, the curriculum never held as high a regard with American society as it did in Europe. Of course there are both historical and sociological reasons for this, but as far as we’re concerned this was exacerbated for political reason as well a general shift in American society’s attitudes and value system at that time. Some of which was a reaction to the protest and anti-establishment movements of the era and the return of many to the more materialistic values of their parents. So. . . here we are. It is also important to understand that until the 1980s, traditionally most did not see higher education as a tool to riches, a great job with a corner office, etc. It was for an interest in understanding the human experience and how one could contribute to our evolution and had been that way since the 15th century as well. But the desire for money/power (both expressions of each other) and the sense of security they provide along with a value system already inherent in the American zeitgeist that won out. Of course there were other supporting reasons as there always are, but at the foundation lie these. And until the past century, higher education was also typically accessible to the wealthy ruling class. The majority of the masses remained illiterate. Of course the trades were necessary, but hardly enough of any population to have created a “middle-class” until the 19th century when the industrial revolution led to the requirement of an educated population. However, having seen the mistake of having to highly an education population and what it can lead to, the ruling classes have slowly managed to find that middle ground where the masses could be educated just enough, but not too much so as to provide the resource of labor they need for the kind of jobs the new era of technology necessitates. Dangle a dollar in front of someone, and odds are that is where they will follow; mind, body, and soul. So, by the mid to late 1990s most universities had almost entirely switched over to focusing on what are now the new trades as well as what? Business Management and Administration. Thus with the pushing of funding in those areas, the funding dried up for the traditional liberal arts, to the point where unless one has money, can devote their education to full time day study, it is almost impossible to earn a two year degree, let alone a higher degree in them. This is why by the late 1980s, MBA's quickly became a dime a dozen and continue to be so. A masters in Business Administration is also one of the least academically challenging programs, yet one of the most sought after and most prevalent program one can take. I should know, I have my first degree in Business before going for my degree in the Arts. My business degree I did while working full time for a company on the Upper East side of NYC, then having to make it down to Grand Central, to NJ, to my car parked somewhere on some side street, and drive forty minutes to Fairleigh Dickinson for night class. Yet I did it, graduated on the Dean’s List and then went from there. In essence, I could have done it in my sleep, hanging from the attic roof, during the height of what once was normally winter in the North East. So. . . As much as our short news cycles, our entertainment, and the overall messaging we receive throughout our culture likes to protest otherwise, the present is hardly ever made up of just the last few years of change. Noper. It is made up of steadily increasing changes over decades and even centuries. Anywhooooo. gotta run.
Cheeky lads, "That Beano band's got nuthin" on us". Faces were full of talent and joyfully played off each other. Look at their faces. Don't get better 'an this, man. They were at their best in smaller venues where they could play directly to faces in a rowdy crowd. They deserve credit for pioneering Hard Rock. That is, bass and drums right up front with Fiesta Red Ron's guitar, Ian's keys and Rod's soulful vocal. Listen to Ronnie Lane's bass lines... more expressive, almost like a lead guitar. And what's that? ...Kenny playin jungle percussion! Faces ,and Cream, each pioneered bringing drums & bass up front. But Faces never went big. Pity they missed the fame and big money of arena audiences. But they were genuine and one of my top three... or six, or seven... favorite rock bands. -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA (former Mancunian).
So that I can protect my clients rights (the one that controls the copyright to the footage) I assume you read the opening statement on the screen explaining exactly why we put our web site across the screen. I spent a lot of money finding the original film and having it scanned to 2K and decided to share it with the TH-cam audience (which last time I checked I’m under no obligation to do so.)Nobody is forcing you to watch it. It truly amazes me how many people like you constantly complain about this when you pay NOTHING to watch it. Most people say thanks for sharing which is much appreciated but then there are people like you………
Still watching in 2024
Watching in 2025 actually saw Faces sing this as I saw them 4 times 1970-1975 Rod would stretch his arms like wings singing this
Great song, captures the spirit of blues rock around 1970 perfectly. It took two guys (Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood) to replace Steve Marriott. That tells all about what a musician Steve was. RIP!
