Good Boys... When They're Asleep...
is a 1999 compilation
of British rock group
The Faces
Compiled primarily by
keyboardist
Ian McLagan,
it served to supersede
the 1976 effort
Snakes And Ladders /
The Best of Faces,
and to present a
CD-length
retrospective of the group,
lasting nearly
eighty minutes
although a
UK-only double
LP retrospective,
Best of Faces,
had already gone
some way toward
achieving those goals
already as early as 1977,
Good Boys
was the first Faces
compilation to
benefit from the active
involvement of a
group member
performs lead vocals
on fifteen of
nineteen tracks,
the set presents
three tracks sung by
and the singing debut
of Ronnie Wood
on
"Ooh La La."
Included for the first time
is one track from
the Faces' final session,
"Open to Ideas."
With the exception of a cover
of
Bob Dylan's
"The Wicked Messenger,"
all of these tracks appear,
alongside many others,
on the comprehensive
2004 four-disc box set
by the group
again curated by
keyboardist
Ian Mclagan
titled
Five Guys Walk into a Bar....
