The Faces: Vocalist Wanted for Pro Band
Barbara Charone, Sounds, 29 November 1975
IT SEEMED like a good idea. After Rod Stewart's predictably flamboyant statements over the Faces future, the band deserved equal time. Would Ian McLagen turn the other cheek and passionately declare "I'll never record with Rod again?" Would Tetsu supply all the scandal fit to print over the Stewart/Ekland affair? Would Kenny Jones admit that he was joining the Rolling Stones? All this and more demanded attention.
