After announcing earlier this week that they would be teaming up with Aerosmith for the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers’ farewell tour this summer, The Black Crowes joined forces with another mega rock star, welcoming Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood to sit in on the Faces‘ “Stay With Me” at Los Angeles’ Greek Theater.
Currently on tour in support of their first new studio album in 15 years, Happiness Bastards, The Black Crowes busted out “Stay With Me” for the first time since 1990 in honor of the Rolling Stone, who played in the Faces alongside Rod Stewart, late bassist Ronnie Laine, and drummer Kenney Jones. The band was originally formed in 1969 by members of Small Faces after lead singer and guitarist Steve Marriott left to form Humble Pie. They split up in 1975 but were inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012.
The Black Crowes have covered other Faces tunes over the years, including a 2010 collaboration with late Faces keyboardist Ian McLagan on the songs “You’re So Rude” and “Glad and Sorry”.
