I’m pretty sure he realized just how good he was, it’s just that he was unlucky overall and got screwed over a bit. If The Rolling Stones audition story is true, then he was actually TOO GOOD for everyone and got punished for it. Don’t know. Everyone who really knows anything about rock n roll knows Steve Marriott was the best singer of all time.

@@NoOne-kr4jc I love Free and Paul Rodgers, they are my favorite rock band bar none. Like the Small Faces they were heavily influenced by US soul music and were all tiny 5 footers. Worth pointing out that Paul Rodgers was very partial to a punch up in the 60's and early 70's so he may have got into it with Marriott at some point. Scary criminal Don Arden probably poisoned the small faces chances forever, they never escaped the mob. Like Hendrix with Mike Jeffery, once they get their nozzle into you they keep sucking and scare everyone else off.

Simply incredible. This took my breath away.

Steve Marriott could sing the ABC's and have a million seller!

Awesome , Steve really rips it and with such feeling

Had the honour of seeing the Small Faces live at St. Albans Market Hall in 1965, absolutely brilliant. RIP Steve & Ronnie

Whoever it was who commented that Plant should have sung this 20 years ago, I'm not sure it would have made any difference. Robert Plant whilst a powerful voice, simply didn't have that which Marriott did - SOUL, beautiful SOUL. RIP Steve and Ronnie.

In my opinion one of the most under rated groups ever, Ogdens Nut Gone Flake round album cover hooked my eye, the music changed my mind , and turned me ON , that was early seventies , their music is like a drug to me , when down, i listen to it and i'm on top again . Many Thanks to the Small Faces.

It was crooked management that prevented The Small Faces from being far bigger than they should have been, dreadful shame. I’ve since listened to Robert Plant’s version but didn’t care for it at all. For me, it’s Tim Hardin’s original or the magical Marriott versions that have the most depth of feeling. Did you know Steve’s daughter Mollie inherited her dad’s voice? She has an album called Truth Is A Wolf, she’s terrific. If you don’t know her, just google Mollie Marriott, you may be pleasantly surprised.

i just love this song and cant stop listening to it :-)

I remember in the 80s I went to school with this really cool white kid and father was this hippy lawyer who spent a lot time traveling but he allowed us to listen to his records. My friend and I smoked a joint and he played this song and man was I blown away. Really miss the 80s it was such a cool time.

Very good version !

The Small Faces were one of the best bands of the 60s. Great sound

Hello - I wish Steve was still around. I saw the Small Faces in 1965 - I was 15 - at Taunton, Somerset, England. At the end I rushed outside and was feet away as Steve and the rest got into their car and I watched Steve in the back as the car pulled away. Never forgotten, have all the singles and some LP's have listened to them all my life - I am now 58 - I still miss Steve Marriott!!!! Alison

a most awesome and under-rated band.

@Bunny Warren There is a DVD from the Reelin' In The Years series called The Small Faces All Or Nothing 1965 to 1968 and there are 27 complete performances of them filmed for various TV shows both in UK and abroad - if that's any help to you. There's also interviews with all 4 of them from different times - it's great to watch!

I always thought Bobby Darin's rendition was the gold standard until I heard Steve Marriott and the rest of this underappreciated band do this incredible song. I am beginning to believe that maybe the greatest injustice in my life was that the work of this group was not made available to those of us in the States as was the Stones, Beatles etc. I feel so cheated.

ABSOLUTELY 'THE' BEST version i've ever heard of this great song. Vocals are fabulous love it .Would give some elses right arm to have current music like this.TREMENDOUS.

pure unadulterated vocal, preach it to me brother!

Love this version

ardellefly hehe nice awakening to experience the brilliance of this band :-). I was like you some time ago...knew Steve only from Humble Pie. When you put these two pieces together (SF and HP) it's so clear that this guy is incredibly underrated, an unsung LEGEND in my eyes really.

Oh, how love Steve Marriot!!! I loved being able to keep up with his strong notes as a teenager!!! Yeaaaahyeaaaaahhhh from one of his Humble Pie tunes got my full attention!! I still remember when I discovered he was the same singer as on Itchycoo Park, I was just giddy over making the connection!

Thank the Lord for the variety in music...otherwise we would all starve

Fantastic is right !!!

What a voice! Beyond words!

How fantastic were this bunch of creative youngsters, absolutely magic and not truly recognised for their unique and inspiring enthusiasm for a new direction musically and fashion acceptance. I am so clad they were of my ilk!

Damn, so glad I stumbled across this video. This insipid song so desperately needed the Small Faces. Marriott's passionate vocal delivery, as well as his, and the band's playing, breathes life into a song that when performed as written, limps along like a dying ________ (please feel free to fill in the blank. Let's make this interactive, if you will. Lol.). Tim Hardin wrote so many great songs, but "Carpenter" is one I never cared for, until hearing this version. Thank you, Small Faces, for making this song enjoyable. The end.

RIP Mac ✌

WOW, goosebumps! I sure do miss the amazing Steve Marriott, his voice takes me back to the sweet innocence of my youth discovering music from across the pond. I've been hooked ever since!
