The Faces -- A Nod Is As Good As A Wink ... To A Blind Horse

  Not to be too rude but my impression of The Faces is like a poor man's Rolling Stones, there is hardly a difference, not that The Faces aren't good, but you can see why Ron Wood eventually went to the Stones, he finally got to be in his favorite band.  That aside A Nod is a great piece of Rock 'n' Roll, even if it is a copy cat, it's a good one.  My favorite tune, and their best, Love Lives Here, has their typical Stonesy sound, but it's got some Skynard-ish Americana tossed in there too.
