Tell Everyone - A People's History of the Faces
Tell Everyone: A People's History of the Faces is the story of one of the world's most loved, most celebrated and most mourned rock and roll bands as seen through the eyes of over 500 fans. Forged from the shards of the Small Faces and the Jeff Beck Group, the Faces – Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, Ronnie Lane, Ian McLagan and Kenney Jones – stumbled bleary-eyed onto the gig circuit in 1969 and packed in more than 470 shows across the UK, North America, Australia, Japan and Europe, becoming one of the top-grossing live acts of the period.
They split after their twelfth and final US tour in 1975, having consumed a lot of alcoholic beverages and produced some of the most memorable live performances of the decade, earning a reputation for bringing a party to town, both on stage and back at the hotel afterwards.
Here is the Faces story told through over 500 previously unpublished first-hand accounts, from fans who still remember the backstage parties, the all-day rock and roll shows, the pub-style singalongs and the good time vibe that the band exuded every time they stepped on to a stage.
