Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
When Steve Marriott left the Small Faces in 1969, the three remaining members brought in guitarist Ron Wood and lead singer Rod Stewart to complete the lineup and changed their name to the Faces, which was only appropriate since the group now only slightly resembled the mod-pop group of the past. Instead, the Faces were a rough, sloppy rock & roll band, able to pound out a rocker like "Had Me a Real Good Time," a blues ballad like "Tell Everyone," or a folk number like "Richmond" all in one ... ...Read More (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&token=ADFEAEE4791EDB48AB7F20C2966C179A947DF71ED342F38250325F498DE7621BDF5C6AB213A7DFD2B3FA75B135ACF52EAC500DD4DA8E2B&sql=11:6tkpu3y5an5k~T1

Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Boasting "Stay With Me," the only hit the Faces ever had, A Nod Is as Good as a Wink is their most consistent record, and arguably their best. "Stay With Me" and "Miss Judy's Farm" showcase the band at their best - they're all over the place, threatening to fall apart altogether before they snap it all back into place. Nobody rocked better than this, and the album is full of such terrific moments, including a rollicking cover of Chuck Berry's "Memphis." As with all of the Faces' albums, it's a little messy, but it is a classic rock & roll band at the top of their form.
