Holy cow, until I just came across a YouTube clip, I had not known The Faces covered Maybe I’m Amazed. I really dig their version. Musically, it’s similar to the original, but what stands out to me is Rod Stewart’s voice, which sounds perfect for this tune.
Maybe I’m Amazed was written by Paul McCartney and first appeared on his debut solo album McCartney from April 1970. I know I’ve said this before, the live version that appeared in December 1967 on Wings Over America is much better.
The Faces included their cover, which is also a live recording, on their second studio album Long Player that was released in February. The performance had been captured at Fillmore East in November 1970.
BTW, the guy who starts on lead vocals before Stewart takes over is Ronnie Lane, the band’s bassist. He later comes back to sing harmony. In addition to him and Stewart, The Faces included Ronnie Wood (guitar, vocals), Ian McLagan (keyboards) and Kenny Jones (drums). Man, what a fantastic band – I guess I have to listen to some more!

Really reallygood! Nice staccato drumming, organ flourishes, Woods guitar, and great tag-team singing.

It’s a great version – dare I say it, I think I like it better than McCartney’s original! I had no idea The Faces covered the tune.
Currently listening to their first album. Really great stuff! Too bad Rod Stewart didn’t stay a rocker – he has the perfect voice for some “dirty” rock & roll! 🙂

I agree, liked the Mccartney version, loved the Faces version

Klingt wesentlich ausgereifter als erste Faces-LP. Und dass Rod Stewart ein bedeutender Sänger ist, dürfte mittlerweile bekannt sein.

Habe mir gerade noch einmal das komplette Album angehoert – wirklich gut und ein Jammer, dass Stewart nicht auf der Rockschiene geblieben ist!

The Faces – what a great band. They’re like if The Rolling Stones were a country/folk band that got drunk on a pub crawl every night. Every album they made is a party, though.

That sounds pretty cool. The closest I ever came was Rod Stewart solo some 20 years ago. He some of the old stuff…

I love anything that Ronnie Lane did…I wonder why he didn’t sing the entire song? Good version.
