The Official Limited Edition by Kenney Jones, Ian McLagan and Ronnie Wood.

The first book ever published by the band: featuring original text by Ronnie Wood, Ian McLagan and Kenney Jones along with over 200 photographs documenting the chaotic intensity of the Faces' career: the incendiary live shows, the on-stage laughs and off-stage high-lives, the private jets, groupies, drink, drugs, clothes, haircuts and Holiday Inns.
 
'We wrote 'Stay With Me' backstage, before we went on. He said, 'Come up with a really great lick and I'll come up with the words' and we just had it going. Boom.' - Ronnie Wood

'In those days none of us would go to bed, we wouldn't be able to. I don't remember going to bed before 3 or 4am, and Woody would go beyond and stay up till the next day.' - Kenney Jones

'Rooms got trashed and things would go out the window, but it was all in the spirit of good fun.' - Ian McLagan

'We all used to get ripped and, while we were rehearsing, we didn't realise how much work we'd actually done. When you're enjoying yourself, time just goes by. We used to enjoy being together so much that days would go by.' - Ronnie Wood

As Photographic Editor he has also contributed to many Genesis limited editions including THE WHO LIVE, MAXIMUM WHO and CLASSIC HENDRIX and most recently, as Consultant Editor on Jimmy Page's now sold out limited edition.

'There is an "other-worldliness" to Ross Halfin's photography. Halfin's photographs are testimony to his excellence in separating the timeless from the mundane' - Baron Wolman

'It is Halfin's ability to go beyond the surface and capture the essence of a cloud or a mountain that makes his travel images unique.' - Brad Tolinski

'Travel photography is a combination of art and science. You have to possess knowledge and understanding, but also imagination and vision. As Degas said, "Even in front of nature one must compose."’ - Peter Makowski
