Small Faces

Item was described as like new. It was missing plastic cover as shown in picture and the spine was creased. Not my definition of like new.

The best mod pop soul group to ever come along. Steve Marriott's soulful voice, the instrumentals done so superbly by Marriott, Ronnie Lane, Ian MacLagan, and Kenny Jones. It is hard to believe that Marriott and Lane, the songwriting duo of the group, are sadly gone. This two disc set of unbelievable music released as a deluxe set is one fantastic work of art if ever I heard one. I had a lot of their records back in the 60's when I was still collecting those vinyl singles and lps. Then along came the cd. I bought everything they made again which also included some tunes that I had never heard. Their first single "Whatcha Gonna Do About It? is a classic. The classic followup was "Sha-La-La-Lee" then came this set which was their first lp. So much soul and R&B and rock classics are on this set. A great set from a great group. You would love it!

Underrated here in America, this is a good starting point in setting that right. British Invasion, yes, but distinctive and qualitative. There is a reason Britain loves them!

Great remastering and package.

Any Small Faces product is worth checking out, but the remastered packages are superb and do their catalogue justice. Buy them all now!!

the cd arrived on time and intact. I am very satisfied

The first reviewer was so articulate and covered every aspect of this fantastic cd! Just to emphasize one last time - the sound on this baby rivals my vinyl version - it's that good! If you ever wondered what the Small Faces are about - buy this - you won't be disappointed!

I was much more familiar with the later Small Faces material which has a "psychedelic" feel. This is a stripped-down high energy r' n 'b band more in line with the early Who or the Yardbirds. Steve Marriott's vocals are amazing. I can see why some people consider him to be rock's finest male vocalist.

Meaty, beaty, etc, the mod album that launched a thousand Paul Weller haircuts. The first CD is the original debut LP, and it's never sounded more vital. Bonus tracks are b-sides to singles from the era, lovely stuff. CD2 is various stereo or mono versions of CD1, not essential but good fun - if it was just CD1 on review I'd have awarded 5 stars. Accompanying booklet of credits, momorabilia etc. almost make it worth buying just for the rare photos. Has a band ever looked so right?

I put off buying this CD for a while as I already had the 40th anniversary edition which was released in 2006 but am glad I got round to adding it to my collection. It's beautifully packaged with lots of picture sleeve singles and memorabilia of the band plus asecond disc of alternate versions including an alternate version of " Don't stop what you're doing " with Jimmy Winston on lead vocal which I'd not heard before. I think it's an essential purchase for anyone wanting to be introduced to one of the most underrated bands from the 60's. They produced some great music which has stood the test of time.

During the 60's I only knew Itchycoo Park and Tin Soldier by the Small Faces. I had no idea of their Decca Years.(North American Fan). A different style from the Immediate label but just as interesting. I'm glad to own not only the main album but the bonus alternate mixes. I don't even mind the electronically processed stereo. They bring a different ambience to the music. The more variations on a theme for me the better. They may not be essential versions but they are different and fun to have. So many great British bands from the sixties, I couldn't follow them all. I'm glad I caught up with the past.

Bought this first time round in 66. Loved it then and love the new deluxe-edition plus the booklet.. Delighted with it plus the excellent speedy delivery !!!!!!!!!!

ONe of the Best British group from the 60s nearly as good as the Beatles
