Ooh La La (Faces album)

The album was most recently reissued on CD in a remastered and expanded form on 28 August 2015, including early rehearsal takes of three of its tracks, as part of the 1970–1975: You Can Make Me Dance, Sing Or Anything... box set (along with the rest of the Faces catalogue of studio recordings).

The original LP's Art Deco-inspired cover was constructed in such a way that when the top edge of the sleeve was pressed down, a concealed die-cut design element would descend that made Gastone's eyes appear to discolour and move to the side, and his jaw would appear to drop into a leering smile.

The back cover also featured art deco-inspired design elements, and detailed song information and album credits alongside tinted individual photographic portraits of the band members.

The original gatefold sleeve's inner design depicted a large stylised photomontage of the band in typical 'laddish' pose, admiring the charms of a can-can dancer (referencing the lyric of the title track).

The 2015 vinyl reissue (part of the 1970–1975: You Can Make Me Dance, Sing Or Anything... box set) replicated the original LP artwork, including the animated picture of Gastone.

Shortly afterwards, striking a rather more considered tone in an apparent attempt at damage limitation, Stewart told Rolling Stone magazine that what he had actually meant to say was that the group was "capable of doing a better album than we've done.

Rather than celebrate this success, however, the rest of the group were dismayed by the harshness of Stewart's comments, especially considering his perceived lack of commitment to fully participate in the album's recording.

No longer content with the prospect of being increasingly sidelined in the band that he had originally co-founded, Lane left the Faces early in June, a decision that he would reportedly later regret.

Faces released two further singles (in 1973 and 1974 respectively), but while they toured extensively over the next two-and-a-half years, without Lane the necessary impetus for the band to record another full album of studio material seemed to have evaporated (aside from a brief and abortive attempt early in 1975).

The group eventually ground to a halt in November 1975 as Stewart seemed to lose interest in them entirely, while guitarist Ronnie Wood toured with the Rolling Stones prior to his official enlistment as Mick Taylor's replacement.
