 | | Don Arden [+] is known as one of the toughest British pop managers of the 1960s and 1970s, handling major acts such as the Small Faces [+], the Electric Light Orchestra, Black Sabbath [+], and Ozzy Osbourne [+]. |
 | | In his defense, it has been noted that Arden also paid for comfortable accommodations and plenty of fashionable clothes for the band, luxuries out of the reach of most young adults of their age in England in the mid-1960s. |
 | | In any case, by the end of 1966 the Small Faces [+] were through with Arden, angered when a demo they had sent to him, "My Mind's Eye," was released by Decca as a single (and became a hit) without their consent. |
