Faces "A Nod Is As Good As A Wink" (1971)

How in the world do you pick favorite Faces record? Ask us tomorrow and it might be the equally fantastic “Long Player” or “Ooh La La.’ Regardless of which album we choose to pay these guys always put us in a great mood! “A Nod” boasts the group’s only significant hit, the superb, fiery rocker “Stay With Me” and numerous other highlights, including the strutting “Miss Judy's Farm,” a rollicking cover of Chuck Berry’s “Memphis,” and the piano-driven hard rock of “Too Bad”...every track is worth a listen, actually. This album rocks like very few other records of the early seventies proving what a great, underrated rock n’ roll outfit the Faces were. –JT
