38. The Small Faces, Rollin' Over (1968)



I've just come back from a lovely couple of drinks with a friend of mine who takes photographs for the marvellous The Word. As well as plying me with wine, he also introduced me to a side of The Small Faces that I'd never heard before. I thought they just debated, in an irritating fashion, whether it would be nice to get on with your neighbours or stroll round Itchycoo Park. I was wrong.

Rolling Over is just one their weightier numbers would also recommend...

Wham Bam Thank You Mam later covered by Acid Jazzers Mother Earth and reformatted into Pretty Vacant by the Sex Pistols

Tin Soldier (like a template for every Weller tune)

Song Of A Baker

Or for a hammond meltdown
Grow Your Own
