Small Faces
Small Faces were a rock group from London, England, UK, founded during 1965. Their original members were Steve Marriott, Ronnie Lane, Kenney Jones & Jimmy Winston, with Ian McLagan replacing Jimmy as the band's keyboardist in 1966. Small Faces was one of the most celebrated and influential mod groups of the mid. '60s, recording hits including Itchycoo Park, Lazy Sunday, All or Nothing & Tin Soldier, along with their concept album Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake. They later evolved into one of the UK's most successful psychedelic bands by 1969. When Steve left to form Humble Pie, rather than splitting-up, the 3 remaining members collaborated with Ronnie Wood, his older brother Art Wood, Rod Stewart an...
Long Agos and Worlds Apart
The Small Faces epitomised the maxim, "Never mind the width, feel the quality." In their brief original lifespan, they released just three official albums and a dozen-and-a-half authorised non-album singles and B-sides. Yet more than five decades after the London quartet's split the phenomenal quality of that compact body of work has ensured a continuing and unassailable musical esteem bordering on legend. Gut-bucket vocalist Steve Marriott brought a bluesy grit to both compositions of gravitas and effervescent pop numbers. Bassist Ronnie Lane collaborated with him to form one of the most formidable songwriting partnerships of the era. Ian McLagan was an exhilaratingly blurred-fingered keybo...

Let The Good Times Roll
'WHICH IS THE BEST BAND I'VE BEEN IN? THE SMALL FACES WERE THE MOST CREATIVE, THE FACES WERE THE MOST FUN,THE WHO WERE THE MOST EXCITING. THESE WERE ELECTRIFYING DAYS IN MUSIC. WE WERE ALL UNTRIED, UNTESTED. WHAT WAS STOPPING US? NOTHING.' As drummer with the Small Faces, Faces and later The Who, Kenney Jones' unique sense of rhythm was the heartbeat that powered three of the most influential rock bands of all time. Beginning in London's post-war East End, Kenney's story takes us through the birth of the Mod revolution, the mind-bending days of the late-1960s and the raucous excesses of the '70s and '80s. In a career spanning six decades, Kenney was at the epicentre of many of the most excit...
The Small Faces & Other Stories
The Small Faces & Other Stories is a trip back in time, charting the rise and fall of one of the Sixties most energetic and successful bands. It is the extraordinary story of how this bold four-piece, led by mercurial cockney Steve Marriot, found fame and then splintered by the end of the decade to evolve into Humble Pie with Peter Frampton, and the Faces fronted by Rod Stewart. Along the way their trademark songs Itchycoo Park, All or Nothing, Stay With Me and Baby I Love Your Way would influence future generations of musicians such as Paul Weller, Ocean Colour Scene and Blur. By way of anecdote, interview and analysis, Uli Twelker and Roland Schmitt lift the lid on the bands’ complex histories and the explosive characters involved that built one of rock music’s most enduring and successful family trees.
Steve Marriott
Steve Marriott was one of the music world's most extraordinary individuals, A supremely gifted songwriter, singer and ... schemer. A vocalist from the same mould as Rod Stewart, Eric Burdon and Steve Winwood ... but arguably the greatest white soul singer of them all. Marriott never held back from anything, least of all his music, his vocals always possessed an intensity, clarity and maturity that at the time were unmatched by any other singer. His band The Small Faces were the first to be banned from Top of The Pops and were deported from Australia at gunpoint. Steve's next group Humble Pie ruled the stadiums of America but the money earned was diverted by mafia associates and he returned t...

Small Faces On Track
Small Faces. Big Sound. There were but four Small Faces. First they were the sharp little Mod fourpiece of the 'All Or Nothing' Decca years, Carnaby Street, Ready Steady Go! and Rave magazine. Then they were the irreverent Freakbeat experimentalists of the Immediate years, with 'Tin Soldier', 'Lazy Sunday' and classic album Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake. An arc of hits praised, covered and imitated by subsequent Rock musicians such as Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher. When The Small Faces split, they became Humble Pie with Steve Marriott and Peter Frampton, and a different batch of musicians became The Faces with the addition of future Rolling Stone Ron Wood, and vocalist Rod Stewart, to become one of the biggest rock bands of the seventies. When those bands came to a natural end, and with 'Itchycoo Park' returned to the Top Ten, The Small Faces reformed for two more albums - ill-advised maybe, or possibly ripe for re-evaluation? The evidence is laid out here. For this is the full story, track-by-track, song-by-song, from the very start, to the final end...
