REVIEW: |
This
release from the Faces presents the band’s recordings for the BBC, but due to
the officially announced Rhino 9 discs box set is probably the last one from
bootleg labels. This is in fact basically a copy of the collection posted on
UIRR and then reworked by Cpt Acid as BBC Collection (AP096) where he did phase
and level correction as well as new EQ; also used was Spectral Repair on some
files, skipped here the Marquee Club concert from December 70. Differently from
the Cpt Acid compilation there is not Away In A Manger a tune Rod Stewart sung
On Top Gear in December 70 alone without the rest of the band. On Love in Vain
from the John Peel’s Concert Rod Stewart dedicates the song to Mick “who is no
longer one of us”, having married Bianca the previous day with Ron Wood, Ronnie
Lane and Kenney Jones in attendance. This is an excellent release, it will be
hard to improve it, the only possible way would be to present all stereo
recordings.
