Small Faces were a hard sell to me and my friends. Mostly we knew them as the Faces with Rod Stewart. And Rod Stewart was a bit too over the top Rock for us to be come big fans. Radio hits and all that, then "Do you think I'm Sexy" came along and hammered a nail in that coffin. But the Small Faces are not Rod Stewart. He was a replacement singer. The Small Faces were Mods. I'm still not sure what Rod Stewart is. Proof or their worth is embodied in this great tune from 1967.
And if you haven't heard, Ian McLagan, the keyboardist with this outfit just died at 69 years old.
