\"small<\/a>By Bob Berry<\/p>\n

August 7, 1967. One of my “desert island” songs,\u00a0 “Itchycoo Park” by The Small Faces, was released.<\/p>\n

And not just any desert island song, but an “anytime, anywhere, can’t get enough of it, always fresh when I hear it, played it too loud in the car, let’s play it louder!” <\/em>song.<\/p>\n

Written by Small Faces Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane, brilliantly engineered by Glyn Johns; “Itchycoo Park” was a sonic marvel of it’s time. Play it loud, and you’ll discover it still is.<\/p>\n

And “all too beautiful”, indeed.<\/p>\n

As you probably know, The Small Faces, Marriott on guitar and vocals, Lane backup vocals and bass, plus Kenny Jones on drums, and Ian McLagan in Hammond B-3, morphed into what became The Faces, when Steve Marriott left to form Humble Pie in 1969. Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood of the Jeff Beck Group joined the remaining “Smalls”, and over the course of the next 6 years, created a marvelous musical legacy.\u00a0 All were inducted, and both groups honored, with induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame<\/strong><\/a> in 2012.<\/p>\n
