Whereas, from 1969 to 1975, The Faces - Rod Stewart, Ron Wood, Ian McLagan, Ronnie Lane, and Kenney Jones - played their loose and joyful blues - and soul-inflected rock-n-roll with reckless abandon, consummate skill, immeasurable charm, and more than a few adult beverages, and
Whereas, for those few years they were arguably the greatest band on the planet, and
Whereas, their influence has resonated ever since through the music of countless acts, from The Sex Pistols to The Replacements to The Black Crowes, and on and on, and
Whereas, greater than the sum of its parts, The Faces made now-immortal music that encapsulates everything good, fun, and exciting about rock-n-roll and for which there will never, ever be a last call,
Therefore be it resolved, that we, the undersigned, on this 1st of July, 2007, hereby petition the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to induct The Faces into its hallowed halls, as this most deserved recognition is LONG OVERDUE.
Ooh La La!
Signed,

I support this petition. The Faces were the greatest band out there druing
the first years of the '70's, and although they don't know it, they were
among my best friends at that stage in my life. The likelihood that they
couldn't give a hoot about the Hall of Fame doesn't mean the Hall of Fame
shouldn't give a hoot about them! |

The Small Face were one of the great Brittish bands of the 60s. When Steve
left and Rod & Ronnie joind, The Face reached new Heights so I support
this petition. |

From a young age of nearly twelve I started listening to the Small Faces.
This was after hearing them on the radio. For me the natural progression
was to follow the route of the Faces. My best wishes and loyal support for
this endeavour. KG |

From about the age of nearly twelve I started listening to the small faces.
As I got older I started appreciating music more and more. The natural
progression for me was to follow the faces. I believe they did not get the
recognised status, because of perhaps, a premature end. My best and loyal
wishes, Kev G. |
