| Quote: vastman "The Faces were a decent rock band but lacked the power and grace of the Small Faces from whom they came. Steve Marriot was a fine singer and musician possibly the first real Rock voice rather than R&B or R&R and Ronnie Lane was poorer without him. Rods fine but basically a solo performer.'"
agree about The Faces but you are way off with the 'first real Rock voice' - Ian Gillan was (still is ?) streets ahead of Marriott IMO - then you have the likes of Joe Cocker..........

Was Gillan before Marriot - I did say the first not the best that's purely opinion.

Gillan started serious rock singing before Marriot (he as the original 'Jesus' in JC Superstar of I recall) though Marriott was a kind of child star of the early 60s but doing more middle of the road stuff.
If we are talking about early rockers then surely the likes of Buddy Holly & Little Richard and of course, The King must be taken into consideration ?

Dashboard is a very very good tune.
Prefer Cribs' previous album if i'm honest and I don't think they'll ever top it

| Paranoid by Black Sabbath is a particularly good album to listen to whilst driving i.m.o.
Especially Iron Man,good for gentle headbanging ,but at the same time not distracting whilst driving.
If I could go off at a tangent,a great album for me would be,
Paranoid,Black Sabbath.
Bad to the bone,George Thorogood and the destroyers.
Ace of spades, Motorhead.
Since youv`e been gone,Rainbow
Sweet child of mine,Guns`n Roses.
Thunderstruck,AC/DC
Let there be rock,AC/DC
Who are you?,The Who.
Bat out of hell,Meatloaf.
Stairway to Heaven,Led Zeppelin.

| I haven't named them as great albums as such against my prog collection but I have a hell of a lot of Ennio Morricone soundtrack/compilation albums sitting about.
Surely 'Once Upon a time in the west' has to have the best soundtrack ever written?

Yes - it is. I also like "The Vice of Killing". Morricone was a stone cold genius and probably doesn't get the respect he deserves because he is so closely associated with writing stuff for the movies.

| Took the Mrs to see Fleet Foxes in Manchester last night; not everyone's cup of tea, but they are super-talented musicians - their live performance was genuinely remarkable.
I could get quite into this young fogey, folk rock revival; just got to get this beard sorted out.

you mean just like us 'old f@rts' who used to watch Pentangle,Fairport Convention & Steeleye Span etc etc ? and even you have to admit that the folky/rocky/punky music of the Pogues is a bit special ?

Really not sure you are getting my point. I'll put it another way. I'm not saying he was the best or the first to sing in a Rock fashion ever! However I think Tin soldier was the first real Rock song to go mainstream rather than an R&B hybrid which is what say Zepplin or Cream were. Despite some calling it an R&B song it clearly isn't, it's sung with no attempt to sound black or American it's just belted out and that to me is what 70's rock was in vocal terms - it's pure soft(ish) rock. I don't doubt Gillan has a better voice, certainly a wider range - I also know that Marriott had a tendency to go all music hall so wasn't really a pure rock singer. However I think it's the case that whether by design or accident the Small Faces produced a prototype rock sound that charted first. This was 1969, the same year Deep Purple started so it was close I'll give you that but I reckon they got it in the charts first.
Again I'm not sure you are with me. I'm talking rock singer - Soft rock - Hard rock - Heavy Metal etc etc all are different enough not to be R&R or R&B. Up until 1969-70 these styles didn't really exist in the mainstream. Up until that point you were either American Blues inspired (R&B) and it's British variant Jagger, Burden and even Plant - or - Country (Rock & Roll, Rockabilly etc) or it's British variant the Beatles, Dave Clark Five and of course Cliffy .Elvis and Buddy Holly were great singers but clearly Country inspired and not rock - Little Richard is an interesting one though but I think we can call him unique!
Nothing wrong with any of it but Marriott sang in his own voice which I think is why so many British singers site the Small Faces as an inspiration - they didn't invent Rock no one did but they contributed.
Anyways it's just opinion and theories and helps pass a boring day - certainly less controversial than talking Rugby

Try Stornaway if you like that sort of thing.
