Probably the most beautiful song ever recorded. Ronnie's bass and Kenney's bass drum are locked in tight. Kenney's drum and cymbal sound is remarkable as are his fills. The guitars are perfect, The flute solo is dream like and full of hope. The ending with the harmonica is so original . And then we come to Steve's vocal performance,; vulnerable, innocent , a man truly in love with his wife. Steve Marriott sings from his soul. The greatest singer in the English speaking world, bar none.

I was in the UK when Steve was playing acoustic shows at the Mean Fiddler, given this song and Red Balloon. I thought they’d be great. Sadly I didn’t go. Anyone go to one of these? Be very interested hear how good they were. Then I burnt my flat down, fell asleep boozed with a lit ciggie. I got out, but the smoke nearly got me. then he did the same thing and didn’t. Very eerie, but my life has been a lot like that.

God, those days! The brilliance of the creativity and FEELING that flowered in our beautiful country, then.

Breaks my heart this proper crying. As the three are gone Steve marriot, Ronnie lane. Ian mclagan only kenney Jones with us. Wish they could all come back this was real music and its lovely to see they had right fun in life and kept smilling xxx

Nowhere in the world can touch British music in the 60s, most of the 70s, 80s or the 90s the 2000s are debatable and up to now in 2020 but nobody can deny the great influence these bands have had on music throughout the years and music fans are still listening to these classics everyday.. simply brilliant.

Surreal and sublime in equal measure. Marriott was a genius, and it has taken far too long for the world to realize his worth.

Here on KZread there is a channel called Yesterday's Papers. They have reviews by the stars of the sixties of other music of the time. It is striking how often The Small Faces are called out as one of the three or four groups making original music, along with The Who and The Beatles (of course). I am just old enough to remember them on the radio. Not only great memories, but magical ones as well.
