◆The Faces have created a lifetime's worth of spectacular rock 'n' roll in the five short years they've been active. Woodpecker heads, satin costumes, sequins and long scarves... The loose, chic quintet that dominated the rock scene in the early '70s remains one of the greatest rock 'n' roll bands of all time and continues to influence many artists.

◆Once thought to be lost, these rare BBC recordings were discovered in Faces' own archives and private collections. As a supplement, in fact, only one BBC session recording, in which three songs were performed, remains lost to this day, but all other concert and session recordings are covered in this album. Rare sources include a stereo mix of the May 31, 1971 performance at the Paris Cinema concert (a mono mix was used for the actual broadcast), and a recording from February 1973, but not actually broadcast due to the band's lighthearted jokes made onstage to the rowdy crowd. The BBC was concerned about a light joke the band told on stage to a rowdy audience, so it was not actually broadcast.
