"This is a delightful discovery for anyone, even if you’re just getting acquainted with the Faces. As someone who has recently stumbled upon this gem, I can confirm that this set perfectly captures the high-energy performances of The Faces, (thanks to John Peel that many of these performances were recorded for us to enjoy). Over the eight discs, we hear Rod Stewart at his absolute finest. I truly believe he was never better than on these recordings. This is not to take away from the other band members, who are also universally excellent.
It’s a fantastic journey into the heart of rock music from the early '70s. This box set is just like opening a time capsule. The recordings from 1970 to 1973 capture the band in their prime, with all the raw energy and spontaneity that made live performances so special. The sound quality is superb, making it easy to imagine yourself in the audience, feeling the excitement and the vibe of those times. What really struck me was the variety and evolution in their music. Each track offers something different, showcasing the band’s versatility and creativity. These live recordings are captivating, giving you a sense of their dynamic stage presence and the electric atmosphere of their concerts. It’s clear that the Faces were not just playing music; they were living it.
“Faces - At the BBC” is more than just a compilation of songs; it’s a celebration of a band that left a lasting impact on rock music. It’s a joy to listen to and a great way to immerse yourself in the magic of the Faces. Give it a try, and let the music take you on a memorable journey. (Butterboy)
