Thanks for the tip off. I’m still spinning my original copy of Ooh la la so I’ve jumped straight onto the Rhino site as it’s also my favourite Faces album as I couldn’t resist a pristine copy. As an oldie with health issues I’ve often said the title track should played as my parting song. When I was a young man, then living in Kent, my pals and I often went to a pub in Blackheath as that band played it regularly, Stewart and the rest lined up at the bar taking some fuel on board. Boy they rocked. Used to be right into Ronnie Lanes solo work as well.
The song Ooh La La has always choked me up where I can't barely sing along with it. That line "poor old Granddad, I laughed at all his ways" and the rest of it, has always pulled on my heart strings. Back when that came out, I was only 16 years old. Now I'm the poor old grandad 😅. I use to love to show my friends while pushing down on the top of the album cover, revealing the mans teeth and saying "Ooh La La" at the same time.
Thanks so much. Always good to find out about new discs. I am interested in the music of the 20's and 30's. . I have Annette Hanshawe. Looking to check out the blues of those days.
Rod Stewart was not very happy with the “Ooh La La” album. Apparently he didn’t even turn up for the first two weeks of the recording sessions. Maybe Rod’s solo career was taking priority over his work with The Faces. So on the day, Ronnie Wood sang lead vocals on the title track. I remember that the original vinyl LP version was quite short in duration - maybe 30/32 (?) minutes tops. Seems the songwriting talent within the band was drying up. The album is still a good listen though. Remembering Ronnie “Plonk” Lane and Ian “Mac” McClagan - R.I.P. gentlemen.
I remember that Television LP in the dollar bins in 79/80. Only band I ever saw live get booed off stage after attempting to open for Peter Gabriel. That was not cool. Always loved that Faces lp, might need an upgrade !
I know people want to put out videos being the first person to show the records but the important question is How do they sound??? Should have waited till after you heard them and put your thoughts out!
This was about the music on these two upcoming reissues. You may know the music in these, but plenty of folks have never heard either of them. I won’t review until I have time to listen to the new versions.
I keep with my pristine original pressing of Adventure. Great album certainly on a par with Marquee Moon. After that I would rank the first Verlaine solo album. The 90s Televison album and Verlaine stuff don't do much for me.
It is completely insane to compare Adventure to Marquee Moon… I love Television… I love Adventure … But we have to be honest and analytical about this… Adventure to Marquee Moon is like Learning to Crawl to the first Pretenders record… They do not compare… Period…That being said I can’t wait to get adventure on rhino… Oh, and I never tire of Rod’s voice during the Faces era… Elton’s favorite singer… May be mine as well.
Mazzy, I'm perhaps in the minority here but I think Adventure is better than Marquee Moon. Days I first heard at CBGBs. One of the first times I was ever in CBGBs. A few nights later I saw John Cale. Steve Forbert opened for him. It was just months after Steve moved up from Laurel, Mississippi. Great times!
Really need to spend more time with Ohh La La. Title song is great. I love Television, but I don’t think Adventure is on par with Marquee Moon. It’s good, but lightning didn’t strike itself twice.
As a Music Vinyl Lover with a Budget? That will be a BIG PASS twice from me. Looks like my January/Feb Vinyl budget will be going to MoFi and AP. For starters this Faces LP isn't even my favorite or listeners choice. Faces "A Nod is as Good as a Wink...to a Bind Horse" is by far a better LP. IMHO better for the Rod Stewart to come. As for Television? And you can buy one LP this month? BUY the lead singer and guitarist for Television Tom Verlaine's recent released "WARM AND COOL" WOW what a LP. I am going to have to buy another one because this one is being playing and will play so much. I would challenge everyone listen to "Warm and Cool" and then "Adventure" and decide which you will listen to more often. Short of a big RHINO Box Set this month? I will be buying Atlantic 75 Yes "Fragile" and Genesis " A Tick of the Trail" over these two RHINO releases. Next?

Thank you, Norman, always a great channel. Kevin cut from the original UK masters produced by Glyn.
@@robcaiger1781 thank you ✌🏼
Very cool that you got free copies, I just shelled out for the Faces, been looking for it for a while!

I'm glad you consider Adventure to be as good as Marquee Moon. I've always been shouted down if I suggest this.
It's so good!
The best second album follow-up I can think of..... Strong songs.
A nod is as good as a wink. Cheers.
I agree that 'Adventure' is as good as 'Marquee Moon'
Have both albums. Might revisit.
Man I wish I would have remembered the Marquee Moon reissue. The used prices are ridiculous. I’m interested in Adventure for sure.
Hi Mazzy, cheers from Brazil.
Hey Mazzy. Love both those albums. Might not be the best Faces album, but still worth owning. I’ll be spinning that later today. Cheers
100% the whiners who only want Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath are missing out. Ignore the great Faces at your peril

Love your leopard-skin pill-box hat…
Great Jacket Mazzy!
Always thought Ronnie Lane sang Ooh La La. Every day’s a school day.
Mazzy I recommend the Ronnie Lane boxset.
Some "was there a substance involved" moments :-)
@@raymondullmer2222 😎😵💫🤓
Cool
lol the walk up intro. wondering if you're an Eastwood type with one take, or Kubrick...
Usually one take
@@mazzysmusic I actually liked it! It kind of felt like Rod Sterling coming at you from The Twilight Zone. 😄

I bought Marquee Moon from a cutout bin
I got the promo copy of Adventure for a DOLLAR in Boston in 79.
Superior my man
Oooooo sooooooo coooooool
😆😵💫🥺
I was going to "turn the channel" but i could not find the Knob.

The ONLY new rhino hifi title everyone wants to hear about is David Lee Roth and I await your review with growing impatience 😼
@@lokitio 😵💫🙄🥺😆
I have the Faces album with the active cover, so I'll stick with that one. I don't need no stinkin' new "audiophile" releases.

I love MM but I have to agree, Adventure is fantastic from start to finish. Big change from their first but boy is it a fantastic album
@@PanditMusic love Days.

@@scottadams7523 I skip almost all 45s, so that ain’t happening here. I agree the warm and cool issues from last year is wonderful.
Tom Verlaine's Warm and Cool. We'll check it out Thanks for the share !
Why do I need to rebuy these two albums , I don’t. Most of us out here don’t have the hefty wallet like you, how about donating to a a good charity.
@@nickmedina4296 of course you don’t. And I don’t have to share with you who I donate to 🥺🤓🙄
