  • Tracklist
  • Ooh La La, released in March 1973, serves as a spirited and bittersweet valedictory statement from Faces. Anchored by rollicking, ragged-edge rockers like Silicone Grown and Borstal Boys, it crackles with unpretentious energy and party-ready swagger. Yet, beneath that joyous exterior lies deeper emotional currentsRonnie Lanes reflective compositions such as Glad and Sorry and the wistful title track reveal a band wrestling with change and nostalgia. The result is an album thats both raucous and tender, offering half an hour of raw charisma, heartfelt introspection, and undeniably timeless charm.

    Despite the pressures of Rod Stewarts solo stardom and growing internal tensions, the Faces deliver a cohesive and vibrant recordthanks in no small part to producer Glyn Johns, who kept the sessions focused and alive. The albums brevityjust over 30 minutesis packed with memorable riffs, folky warmth, singalong moments, and that unmistakable Faces camaraderie. Whether youre drawn to its rowdy rockers or its quieter, more melodic moments, Ooh La La stands as a powerful and affectionate farewell from one of rocks most lively and honest bands.
