This album is a clone of: All You Need (Oh Boy , OH BOY 1-9035) without "I'm Loosing You".
This bootleg is a collection of songs from Faces' performaces at BBC.
The first series of tracks is from: 17 Feb 1972 Radio BBC. Three tracks are from 1 Apr 1973 BBC and the last part of the album is made with songs from 13 May 1971 BBC show.
What we are commenting on is one of the best Faces live compilations superior in audio quality and performance to much of the live material officially published by the band. To reflect the value that bootlegs have had for a long time: to provide details not known to fans at the time and which did not show through official publications. This record does very well.
As unfortunately for many other discs released by the label, the recording date on the back cover is also incorrect here.
Track 3 is a medley: That's All You Need & Honky-Tonk Woman. Track 8 is You're My Girl (I Don't Want To Discuss It). On the front cover Ronnie Wood and Rod Stewart performing live. This Oil Well version has a fine cover, fine quality and limited to 200 copies only. Due to its rarity and good quality, this disc is recommended.

John Peel discussed the special attraction of The Faces for him with producer John Walters
The Faces were Peel’s favourite band in the first half of the 1970s and he appears to have enjoyed their goodtime approach both musically and socially. As well as “playing” mandolin with the band on Top Of The Pops in 1971, the DJ invited them all to his wedding three years later. In subsequent decades, he continued to cite the Faces’s April 1973 gig at Sunderland Locarno as the best he ever attended.
JP: I met the Faces backstage at a gig in Newcastle City Hall. And I can’t remember who else was on the bill – I think the Nice were, oddly enough. But anyway, they had a dressing room and I was sitting in – I didn’t have a dressing room – and there was a phone booth backstage and I was sitting in that thinking beautiful thoughts. I mean, genuinely thinking beautiful thoughts, in as far as I was capable of doing that. And they came and flung the door open and said, “Hello, John, mate, how’s it going, squire?” You know, “Come on, let’s have a drink.” And I didn’t drink at the time at all. And as they went away, my first reaction was, “Dear, oh dear, what dreadful rowdy people.” And then I saw them disappear into their dressing room that was full of scantily clad women and so forth and the sound of breaking glass and curries being flung against walls and so on, and I thought to myself, “Actually, these people are having a much better time than I am,” you know.
JW: So that rather implies that you were attracted socially as a bit of relief. What about the musical side? JP: Well, because it was – I mean, the music exactly defined the band, you know. There was no sort of pretence in there at all. And I suppose I just got fed up – and as I say, it came about at the same time as I started to work regularly with you and meeting the pig, whose background was vastly different to mine, and as I say, much more rooted in reality. And I just, the Faces for me recaptured the kind of feelings I’d had when I first Little Richard and people like that and Jerry Lee Lewis, in the same way as the Undertones were to a few years later.

Paris Cinema, London, England – May 13th, 1971
The Faces appeared on the BBC, both radio and TV, more than twenty times over their six year career and since they were so well recorded many appear on unofficial releases. Real Good Time on Watchtower documents the May 13th, 1971 appearance on John Peel’s Sunday Concert.
This appearance was taped in front of a live audience at the Paris Theater and broadcast on the BBC on May 23rd. The Faces wanted to do two things: play their best stage numbers but also introduce new songs from their latest album Long Player released in March. They start off with the Rod Stewart solo number “You’re My Girl” (called “I Don’t Want To Discuss It” on the artwork). Lasting eleven minutes, is about the best performed song of the broadcast. Afterwards Stewart tells everyone: “Here’s one we’ve never done on the program before called ‘Cut Across Short.'” This performance is the only one from this session to be released officially, appearing Five Guys Walk Into A Bar. They follow with a long cover of The Rolling Stones’ Robert Johnson cover “Love In Vain.”
“Tonight is novelty night” Stewart says before “Bad And Ruin.” “This number has never been played before except when we recorded it for the Long Playeralbum. So if it falls apart in the middle, you know, laugh it off” punctuated by nervous laughter. However, the song does not break down in the middle. “Had Me A Real Good Time” is the other song from the new album played.
Before the end Stewart jokes “We forgot to do one of the best numbers we ever do…’Losing You’ yeah. It’s an old Temptations number and they were great. They ain’t now because they lost the best singer in the world David Ruffin.” The run through a tight six minute version of their cover including a very brief but intense Kenny Jones drum solo.
