The Small Faces

Another UK band which was essentially a one-hit wonder in the US, but had numerous UK hits was The Small Faces. Powered by the songwriting team of Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane, The Small Faces began as an R&B band but shifted to what could be described as a power pop band by the time they broke up.

The Small Faces broke up in 1969 when Steve Marriott left the group to form Humble Pie with Peter Frampton. The remaining members brought Ronnie Wood and Rod Stewart on board and continued as The Faces.

The first clip "All Or Nothing" is taken from the German show, "Beat Club".

The second clip is "Song of a Baker" from "Colour Me Pop"...the great Ronnie Lane sings lead!

The third clip is a bonus from 1974...Ronnie Lane solo after leaving The Faces. The song is "How Come". The audio fades in spots, but you get the idea.

Fab!
