El jueves 23 de abril vi por segunda vez en 10 meses a #LaurieWright, joven valor del #RythmNBlues y el #RockNRoll inglés de aromas #60s y toques #mod.

Los que me conozcan sabrán que mi perdición es la música de guitarras británica, con esa energía anfetamínica y esa urgencia que parece que sólo saben transmitir los hijos de Albión.

Vamos, que me lo pasé pipa. Como en la última semana de enero, cuando llegó media escena del Medway de camino al Sant Antoni Pop Festival.

P.D.: Laurie va a encarnar a #SteveMarriott en un biopic sobre los #SmallFaces. Se me ocurre poca gente mejor que él para hacerlo.

"Lazy Sunday" is a song by the English band #SmallFaces, which reached number two on the #UKSinglesChart, number one in #theNetherlands, number five in #Australia and number 42 in #Canada. It was written by the Small Faces songwriting duo #SteveMarriott and #RonnieLane, and appeared on the band's 1968 concept album #OgdensNutGoneFlake. Against the band's wishes, it preceded the album as a single release.

"Itchycoo Park" is a song by the English rock band Small Faces, written by #SteveMarriott and #RonnieLane. Largely written by Lane, it was among a number of pop songs of the era to make use of #flanging, an effect involving, at that time, electro-mechanical processes. The song was not included on any of their UK albums, but was however featured on the North American release #ThereAreButFourSmallFaces (1968). Released on 4 August 1967 by #ImmediateRecords.

Nach all den vielen Jahren, in denen mich dieses Album begleitet hat, noch immer eines meiner liebsten Live-Alben: Steve Marriott und Peter Frampton klangen für mich nie besser.

Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake is the third studio album, and only concept album by the English rock band Small Faces. Released on 24 May 1968,[2] the LP peaked at number one in the UK on the Record Retailer LPs Chart, where it remained for six weeks.[3] It became the group's final studio album during their original incarnation

Side one of the album showcases a variety of musical styles. The opening title track is an instrumental re-working of "I've Got Mine", a failed single from 1965. This recording uses a Hammond Organ treated with wah-wah pedal and orchestral flourishes from a string section led by David McCallum Senior (the father of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. star David McCallum.)... - Wikipedia

Small Faces is the second studio album by Small Faces, released through Immediate Records on 23 June 1967

The album is considered to be the artistic breakthrough for the group in terms of songwriting and composition, and marks their transition from a mod-influenced blue-eyed soul/R&B band to a psychedelic studio group

AllMusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave it 5 out 5 stars, praising the album for its sophisticated songs, and its pop melodies, stating: "there may be some harpsichords but no outright psychedelia -- but it is bright, colorful, and concentrated, its very brevity playing like snappy pop art. No song runs over three minutes and many clock in under two, a direct contrast to the somewhat extended grooves of their 1966 LP, and an aesthetic that lends this an exceptionally modern feel: all the tunes are sharply cut and precisely tailored, with no wasted moments."
