"Ooh La La" is a classic LP by Faces, originally released in 1973 and widely regarded as one of the defining British rock albums of the early seventies. On this Rhino edition, the record's raw energy and soulful swagger are presented with particular care for sound and presentation. The album captures Faces at a creative peak, balancing bluesy rockers and reflective, melodic songs with their trademark looseness and charm. Guitars, piano and rugged vocals intertwine in tracks that range from barroom anthems to more melancholy, introspective moments, all wrapped in a warm, analog atmosphere that suits the LP format perfectly.
Faces were one of the most influential British rock bands of their era, known for their exuberant live performances and their mix of rock, blues and soul. Emerging from the remnants of the Small Faces with members including Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood, Faces quickly built a reputation as a powerhouse live act and a major force in early seventies rock. Their albums, including "Ooh La La", have influenced generations of rock and indie musicians with their unpolished honesty, emotional depth and infectious sense of fun.
