We should open our top 10 Small Faces songs list with the band’s first single. The great Small Faces song “Whatcha Gonna Do About It” immediately hit the UK charts and turned the band into a success overnight. Vocalist Steve Marriott and bass player Ronnie Lane wrote it. Additional input on the song came from professional songwriters Ian Samuel and...
Their second single,“I’ve Got Mine,” was the first song written by Marriott and Lane without outside help from professional songwriters. It was released in 1965. “I’ve Got Mine“ was less pop-oriented than the previous single and featured a slow, dark, blues-influencedrhythm and heavy, stark rock and roll guitar. While it didn’t make the charts then...
This mod and psychedelic-influenced rhythm and blues song was written by Lane and Marriott in 1967. The lyrics deal explicitly with drug use and the mod subculture. They describe taking speed and waiting for a drug dealer, which were taboo topics at the time. New York’s Velvet Underground was the only contemporary band writing about such bold mater...
Recorded by the band in 1968 but not released until after Marriott had left the Small Faces. It wasn’t authorized by the band but was released by the record company anyway. It fared poorly compared to their other songs, reaching number 37 of the top 40. “Afterglow (Of Your Love)”is a psychedelic pop power ballad. The album version featured an acous...
The third single by The Small Faces was written by Lane and Marriott with input from professional songwriters Mort Shuman and Kenny Lynch and released in 1966. It was issued on the band’s debut album, Small Faces. Unlike their previous effort, “I’ve Got Mine,” this song is far more catchy, upbeat, and pop-oriented, with the title serving as the son...
This song came out during the summer of 1968. Marriott recorded most of his vocals and acoustic guitar parts outside at home, so background noises such as dogs and birds are audible. Previously, this would have been unthinkable in the record industry. It has a folky, somewhat Dylanesque feel reminiscent of late 60’s Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett’ssolo...
Singer Steve Marriott originally wrote this song for his wife in 1967. It’s about getting inside somebody’s mind to understand their thought process, though it was widely misinterpreted to be sexual in nature at the time. It featured an interesting fusion of R&B and The Small Faces’ emerging psychedelic sound. “Tin Soldier” reached number nine in t...
Another Marriott and Lane composition, “All or Nothing,” was released in 1966. It features a more guitar-heavy mod rock style rather than the psychedelic sound typical of The Small Faces’ later singles. It went to number one in the UK and cemented their reputation as a solid band capable of producing multiple hit songs. Marriott wrote the lyrics, w...
This song was the Small Faces’ biggest hit and arguably the one that propelled them to international stardom. It was released in 1967 during the Summer of Love. Due to its catchy mix of rock, pop, and psychedelic music, “Itchycoo Park” proved popular with the growing hippie movement,and the song reached number three on the UK charts. It was the fir...
The cheerful tune “Lazy Sunday” was released in 1968 and appeared on the early concept album Ogdens’ Nut Gone Flake. Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane wrote it. It features Marriott on lead vocals singing in a heavy cockney accent. The music is reminiscent of London Music Halls but with a definite psychedelic pop flavor. Contrary to the songs cheerful...

Oct 14, 2022 · 20: Move It (single A-side, 1958) Hungry Cliff. He was just a fresh-faced youth when he made Move It in 1958, and his backing band, The Drifters, were equally inexperienced. But Cliff’s debut single rocks.
