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 keyboardist.
Kenney Jones brought up the rear with blistering drum patterns, with his rolls often used to provide an explosive fanfare to Small Faces singles. Such a talent-oozing line-up was virtually predestined to conjure excellence. ''Tin Soldier'', their exquisitely sophisticated psychedelic-soul release of 1967, regularly appears in polls to decide history''s greatest singles.
However, the band are just as much loved for rip-roaring power-pop like ''Sha-La-La- La-Lee'' and ''All or Nothing'' and storming instrumental B-sides such as ''Grow Your Own'' and ''Almost Grown''. Their acknowledged masterpiece is Ogdens'' Nut Gone Flake (1968), an album that was not only artistically superb but boasted a second-side narrative suite that paved the way for rock operas such as the Pretty Things'' SF Sorrow and the Who''s Tommy.
Regardless of style, quality and innovativeness, the Small Faces'' music was characterised by a life-affirming joyousness. All this explains why their catalogue is endlessly recycled and why their oeuvre has been disproportionately inspirational. Long Agos and Worlds Apart covers the Small Faces'' full, tumultuous story.
The book draws on lengthy new interviews, including ones with Jones, Lane''s close friend Pete Townshend and original Small Faces member Jimmy Winston. It features contributions from many associates and intimates, including managers, agents, publicists, songwriters, auxiliary musicians, fan-club personnel, recording engineers, journalists, friends and wives.
It also draws on numerous interviews the author conducted down the years with both Jones and McLagan, much of which material is previously unpublished. It is a revealing, impartial, exhaustive and definitive exploration of the corpus and career of a truly great band.
