Every Face Tells a Story is a 1977 album by Cliff Richard, the follow-up to Richard's comeback album, I'm Nearly Famous. Although not quite as successful or groundbreaking, the album was a success in reaching the UK top ten.[2] The album peaked at No.8 during a 10-week run and spawned three hit singles.[3] The first single released from the album was "Hey Mr Dream Maker" in late 1976, followed by "My Kinda Life" and "When Two Worlds Drift Apart" in 1977. The biggest of these was "My Kinda Life", which reached No.15 in the UK Charts.[3]

The album was released in the US with alternate artwork and an edited version of closing track "Spider Man" (shortened by nearly four minutes).

Every Face Tells a Story was remastered and re-issued on Compact disc in July 2002.[4]
