Second, I fall into the same category as Anonymous above...I have no memory of "Lazy Sunday", but what else is new. My knowledge of the Small Faces consisted of "Itchycoo Park", "Tin Soldier", and Steve Marriot. Thanks again Hound, for another enlightening post.

Especially on their first LP -- they were like a perfect cross between the early Who and Booker T. & the MGs, plus glimmerings of punk a decade before the fact.

Steve Marriott belts it out in pure cockney.<br /><br />#Cor blimey, Mrs Jones, how's your Bert's lumbago?<br /><br />- Mustn't grumble!#<br /><br />The real life neighbour who objected to the Small Faces' boisterous life style was ... Cilla Black.<br /><br />Poor Stevie Marriott, died in a house fire. Ronnie Lane died of multiple sclerosis, and perhaps didn't receive all the treatment he needed because a shit management deal robbed the group of much of their royalties, although Kenny Jones and Ian McLagan as well as other musicians did what they could.<br /><br />Cockney wide boys.
