Sporting the blurry group portrait from the 45 picture sleeve of "Tin Soldier" and a title pulled from the Music Hall intro of "All Our Tomorrows," this is the "Official Anthology Approved by (what is left of the) Band."
Included on this double disc set are 50 remastered Immediate Recordings, drawn from three albums, six 45s and out-takes. (Check out the Amazon.com listing of "Wrapping Warf Launderette" for the actual play list...) Not only is this set impressive, its delightfully affordable!
Theirs was a unique brand of divinely inspired lunacy. Witness the clever quips and background chatter on a number of cuts. The entire "Ogden's Nut Gone Flake" (the first LP released in a ROUND sleeve) is included, ending Disc One and beginning Disc Two. The whimsical, odd-ball narrative of "Professor" Stanley Unwin is a surprising diversion between the solid set of tunes smithed for "Happiness Stan."
To be able to hear a digital version of the US single version of "Mad John" brings back many a "Happy Days Toy Town" of the psychadelic sixties. This was and still is classic POP from Mod Rockers even Jimi Hendrix envied for their free-spirited approach to sharing their delicious musical talents with the world audience.
Bright, clean remastering for the avid, rabid SMALL FACES audiophile who can't get enough of 'em! "Stay cool, won't you have a little joy..." Gruggy Woof
