Had Me A Real Good Time is the definitive biography of one of the world's best-loved rock bands, the Faces. Formed from the ashes of The Small Faces and the Jeff Beck Group, they offered a welcome antidote to the more serious excesses of the early seventies. With equal devotion to the mayhem and the music, their devil-may-care, all-for-one Cockney camaraderie won them devoted followers throughout the world, as did their unique brand of uplifting rock'n'roll they owned.
With the charismatic, raspy-voiced frontman Rod Stewart, alongside Ron Wood, Ronnie Lane, Ian Mclagan and Kenney Jones, the Faces cemented their status as one of the most influential rock bands to come out of their era. The product of first-hand interviews and exhaustive research, Had Me A Real Good Time examines the band's roots from working class childhoods in war-torn London, via each member's sixties' Mod roots and onwards through an incredible six-year ride in the Faces and beyond.
This new, updated edition of Andy Neill's acclaim biography includes an additional chapter covering the sad loss of McLagan and the on-going "will they/won't they?" rumours surrounding a Faces reunion.
