239. Ooh La La by The Faces 1973

Faces - Ooh La La‏ - YouTube

I bought the album this song was on because I was huge Rod and The Faces fan..especially after that run of albums from Every Picture to Never A Dull Moment. But I didn't get into this one at all. Played it a couple of times and subsequently forgot about. Don't have a clue where it ended up.  I was more interested in Bowie by that time. Alladin Sane was released at the same time and plus there were all these other Bowie albums to buy and listen to. This Faces were to steeped in the past for what was happening.
However in 1998 I went to the movies and saw a film called Rushmore. Great great film. And a fantastic soundtrack. Really enjoying it and then at the end the hero gets the DJ to put this song on and it just clicks with me. I couldn't believe that I'd never taken any notice of this song at the time. And it's so Faces and so Ronnie Lane. And the song is sung by Ronnie Wood. I went back to listening to The Faces after so long and they're even better than I remembered. I mean some of the stuff I've returned to I can't believe how bad it sounds now. But the Faces is the kind of band we need now. And at least Rod wouldn't be wearing those funny girl clothes anymore, I guess.
really, it makes yoo want to strum a guitar and sing along. Well with me anyway.
