	The Small Faces - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Small Faces were an English rock and roll band of the 1960s.
		They released one LP as The Small Faces before becoming simply The Faces and later Rod Stewart and The Faces.
		Following the breakup of the Faces in 1975, the original Small Faces lineup reformed briefly to film videos miming to the reissued "Itchycoo Park" (a Top 10 hit for the second time), and "Lazy Sunday" (which went Top 40 again).

		Small Faces is a drama based on actual events as recounted in a recent NBC/Dateline story.
		Small Faces is - at once - anti-war and pro-American, as it elevates Rick, the Vietnam war veteran, as an archetype of extraordinary ethical courage and towering moral decency.
		Small Faces was written as an inspired star vehicle for Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi (Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Rush Hour 2).

		By the end of 1966, the Small Faces had severed their ties with Arden which, in effect, ended their relationship with Decca (though the two sides would argue and debate that point for a while), and in early 1967 moved under the wing of Rolling Stones manager/producer Andrew Loog Oldham.
		Their first Immediate album, entitled Small Faces (known in the U.S., where it was released somewhat belatedly through Columbia Records' distribution, as There Are But Four Small Faces), was issued in mid-1967, and was an instant hit.
		The Small Faces did carry on into 1969, and Immediate tried to salvage its situation by issuing a double-LP career retrospective called The Autumn Stone, which made it out a few months before the company closed its doors.

	Small Faces/Faces
		The Small Faces self-titled debut is a garage band classic much like the Who's and the Kinks'.
		Instead this is actually the Small Faces self-titled debut album I'm reviewing - for not knowing the title, I still swear that I have listened to this album a few times before reviewing it.
		So with the Small Faces gone Immediate grabbed their singles and some outtakes plus a few live songs and released this.

	Small Faces
		When an aimless boy's prank precipitates gang violence that leaves one member of his family dead, Lex must face the truth that the tragedy originated with his unthinkingly childish impulse.
		A pudgy-faced adolescent whose voice has barely begun to change, Lex plays the trombone, has a talent for drawing and is the baby in a single-parent Scottish family crammed into a tiny flat on the outskirts of Glasgow.
		"Small Faces," whose screenplay was written by the director and his brother Billy, is a quirky blend of nostalgic mosaic and adolescent tragedy that is so casual about its violence you don't quite realize that the movie has taken a grim turn until some time after the fact.

	Small Faces Reviews
		The Small Faces were a good, occasionally great band who were overshadowed by their unquestionably superior peers.
		The Small Faces were full of the pep and go speed freaks have on their non-sleep weekends throwing ballroom parties and listening to Stax/Volt and Dusty Springfield records, having one big Blow-Up before they go back Monday to their boring dead-end desk clerk jobs.
		I may be off a little, but I believe this was the first album the Small Faces made as a concrete album, and it shows: this contains the flaky excitement and energy of a band let loose for an extended period in the studio for the first time.

		Darlings of Wapping Wharf Launderette ~ The Small Faces
		The Small Faces get a lot of comparison to The Who (ironic because Small Faces drummer, Kenny Jones, would become The Who's drummer after Keith Moon died), but they are very different bands and the Small Faces were not as popular and haven't received the credit they deserve.
		That song was released after the Small Faces began to experiment with their sound and studio space, but it's also less raw than what you will hear on this album (both periods of their music are definitely worth while though).

		DIRECTOR Gillies MacKinnon's Small Faces is an artfully told, very well-acted, but occasionally gloomy, tale of three brothers in poverty-stricken Glasgow in 1968.
		The mother of the family (touchingly portrayed by Clare Higgins) does her best for her sons, and there is support for the arts--often in odd places.
		Small Faces (R; 108 min.), directed by Gillies MacKinnon, written by Gillies and Billy MacKinnon, photographed by John De Borman and starring Joe McFadden, Iain Robertson and J.S. Duffy.

	Review: Small Faces (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Small Faces, Gillies MacKinnon's first feature after turning away from Hollywood (his previous film, A Simple Twist of Fate, was the Silas Marner modernization starring Steve Martin), brings the director back to the kind of small, personal story he feels most comfortable with.
		Lex is a splendid lead character: smart, stubborn, and passionate, yet, largely because of his age, impotent in the face of the wave of violence that threatens to drown his family.
		Small Faces gets the details right, which is largely why it works.

		The Small Faces were performing too often in front of audiences whose screams meant the boys couldn't hear what they were playing.
		He'd released a cobbled together album, There Are But Four Small Faces, in the US without consulting them, and tried to get Marriott and Lane to sign over the rights to their songs just as they were about to take off for an ill-fated, bad-tempered tour of Australasia.

		I believe that The Small Faces are one of the greatest bands to come out of the sixties (not counting the Beatles) and I feel that there are not enough websites around about them, so I have decided to make this one.
		The Small Faces are best known for their hits such as "Itchycoo Park", "Lazy Sunday" and "All or Nothing " but they have so many more great songs than just these three which are just as good, if not better.
		Their fist hit was the song "What'cha gonna do about it" which reached number 14 in the charts (uk) back in 1965.The members of the Small Faces are, Steve Marriott on guitar, Ronnie Lane on Bass, Ian McLagan on keyboard and Kenney Jones on the drums.

	Small Faces/Humble Pie/Frampton
		Someone's got to be second-rate, I guess, and the Small Faces unfortunately spent their career being the second-best Mod band, after the Who.
		Like their less strictly Mod but more commercially and artistically successful competitors, they were heavily influenced by James Brown and the Beatles, adding a psychedelic sheen to hard-hitting R & B. The band's success rested on the songwriting team of Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane.
		Alas, tragedy seems to have followed the band around: Lane contracted MS in the late 70s, was forced to retire from performing, and eventually died of the disease, while Marriott lost his life in a 1991 house fire while on a break from working with Frampton on a reunion project.

	Rod Stewart/The Faces
		The Faces started out as a reincarnated version of those mod popsters the Small Faces, but eventually established a completely different identity (changing their name helped a little).
		The Small Faces had been cast adrift when guitarist/frontman Steve Marriott got a bee in his bonnet and took off to create a new band with Peter Frampton (Humble Pie).
		In 1977 the Small Faces reformed for a tour and two albums, but Lane didn't take part and instead cut the successful LP Rough Mix with Pete Townshend.

	The Small Faces
		But, on the positive side, their small legacy is amazingly consistent: by not getting any wild unpredictable ideas running through their tripped-out heads, they'd evaded falling into the "let's try anything, regardless of whether it works" mentality.
		Nothing surprising about that, either, as the Small Faces were the Who's main rivals throughout Mod clubs; having, however, arrived on the scene just a wee bit too late - and in the mid-Sixties, you could be late by ten days, let alone a whole month - they couldn't get rid of the bandwagon-jumping tag.
		As " relative newcomers", The Small Faces did everything a year later than should be expected, and thus Ogden's Nut Gone Flake was released in the summer of 1968 instead of summer of 1967 where it rightly belongs.

	THE SMALL FACES
		One of Steve girlfriends suggested the name Small Faces, because they were all small in stature apart from Winston and mostly because they all had genuine faces, in other words....TOP MODS.
		The group split in '69, Marriott joining the lead singer of THE HERD, Peter (The Face) Frampton, to form HUMBLE PIE, the others changing their name to THE FACES, and drafting in some bloke called Rod Stewert, as lead singer.
		The Small Faces however will still be remebered as one of Britians finest white soul groups, and a big influence on Paul Wellerand many of todays groups.

		And it's captured in Small Faces with a luminous concreteness of detail and the sweeping narrative of myth.
		At its most powerful, though, Small Faces goes beyond narrative and drama to attain the stasis and sublimity of poetry.
		A cut is made to Lex's face -- it was with his eyes that we had witnessed this -- and though the face is small, it contains the suffering and disillusionment of the world.

		From Small Faces Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane to their respective Humble Pie/Faces bandmates Peter Frampton and Rod Stewart, everything fans want is here - discographies, extensive quotes and detailed analysis of each album, whether group or solo.
		The result is not only the definitive Small Faces book, it's the standard for rock biographers to follow in terms of completeness and accuracy.
		Still, since the various Faces crossed the paths of so many other stars of the 60's and 70's, and each encounter is discussed here, "The Small Faces and Other Stories" is a must for all rock fans.

		The only one of their hits to gain any attention in the U.S. was 1967's Itchycoo Park, a piece of psychedelia that featured one of the earliest uses of studio phase shifting.
		By 1968, the band was becoming frustrated with their image as a singles band and in 1969, Marriott left to form Humble Pie.
		Kenney Jones who reunited with the Small Faces in '76 during a two year reunion, joined The Who, replacing the late Keith Moon, in '79.

		Within the Glasgow of Small Faces, adults are either absent or portrayed as laughable, ignorable objects.
		That they play little part in the proceedings is understandable since the gang warfare presented is purposely separate from elder control, a proving ground for young "stallions".
		If Small Faces had stuck to these core themes, with Lex playing the innocent abroad, then the result could have been stark and shocking brutality.
