I’ve got this friend, whom we’ll
call "Amelia". And man, Amelia is just the world’s
biggest Small Faces fan. Not in actual size or anything, but
as far as fans go, man, Amelia’s just The Supreme Kai
of the Small Faces Nation. I can’t remember the last time
we sat down together for more than ten minutes and he didn’t
steer the conversation to some variant of the Small Faces/Faces/Rolling
Stones rant.
Now, I like Amelia a lot, in a non-touching sort of way. He’s
a great guy once you get past the rant. And I’m always
keen to better understand my friends. So when I stumbled upon
this particular compilation I picked it up to try to get a grasp
on what he’s always on about. The result?
I’ve got this friend, right...?
Pick up Odds and Mods if you like early Rolling
Stones, mod music in general, or the Small Faces/Faces. Or if
you want to better understand a man named "Amelia".
