After 40 Years The Faces Are Reuniting

If your from the 70's than you'll be excited to hear The Faces are reuniting at a benefit show for a British prostate-cancer charity.

The 'celebration of the 40th anniversary of the band's breakup' will consist of former bandmates Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones, and Rod Stewart. The Vulture reports the lineup will be without original members Ronnie Lane and Ian McLagan, who died in 1997 and 2014, respectively; as Stewart wrote, "We'll raise a glass to them."

Rod Stewart's website says - Ladies & Gents, the time has come… Saturday 5 September 2015 marks the reunion of the Faces

Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, and Kenney Jones are set to join the stage together for a short set at the 2015 Prostate Cancer UK charity gig, Rock ‘n’ Horsepower at Hurtwood Park Polo Club in Ewhurst, Surrey.

“This year is the 40th anniversary since The Faces parted ways so it’s about time we got together for a jam! Being in The Faces back in the day was a whirlwind of madness but my God, it was beyond brilliant. We are pleased to be able to support Prostate Cancer UK.” – Rod Stewart

The Faces aren't missing the boat on this one as a vinyl box set will be re-released including all four of The Faces albums and singles on 28th August titled 'You Can Make Me Dance, Sing or Anything (1970-1975).'

This is what Ultimate Rock has to say about the song Stay With Me:

The definitive Faces track if ever there was one, and the obvious choice for our No. 1 slot. 'Stay With Me' was the Faces biggest hit in America (breaking into the top 20) and hitting top ten in the UK. The opening riff is like a shot of adrenaline, and as the band tumble ins, the ride is on. The rhythm shifts to a funkier proposition while retaining all that Faces charm. The great lyrics -- "let's go upstairs and read my tarot cards" -- are delivered wonderfully by the one and only Mr. Stewart, while the band chug along behind him. Wood delivers some ace slide guitar work while the unsung rhythm section of Jones and Lane pulls this train long, before kicking back into high gear for the killer rave up. More than 40 years down the road, this song has lost none of it's charm or power.
