Su un fianco

Su un fianco

Girata su un fianco
la vita balbetta
tamburella
nuovi pensieri
e non smette
La notte
appare lunga
nel ronzio
dei minuti
sospesi
Mi aggrappo
ad un respiro
come nuvola
leggera
e vivo – Adesso

On one side

Turned on your side
life stutters
drumming
new thoughts
and it does not stop
The night
it appears long
in the buzz
of minutes
suspended
I hold on
at a breath
like a cloud
light
and alive – Now

Small Faces Greatest Hits Full Album

Small Faces were an English rock band from East London. The group was founded in 1965 by members Steve Marriott, Ronnie Lane, Kenney Jones, and Jimmy Winston, although by 1966 Winston was replaced by Ian McLagan as the band’s keyboardist.[1]

The band is remembered as one of the most acclaimed and influential mod groups of the 1960s.[2][3] With memorable hit songs such as “Itchycoo Park”, “Lazy Sunday”, “All or Nothing”, “Tin Soldier”, and their concept album Ogdens’ Nut Gone Flake, they later evolved into one of the UK’s most successful psychedelic acts before disbanding in 1969.[4] After the Small Faces disbanded, with Marriott leaving to form Humble Pie, the remaining three members were joined by Ronnie Wood as guitarist, and Rod Stewart as their lead vocalist, both from The Jeff Beck Group, and the new line-up was renamed Faces,[5][6] except in North America, where this group’s first album (and only their first album) was credited to Small Faces. This practice has continued on all subsequent North American reissues of the album to this day.

A revived version of the original Small Faces existed from 1975 to 1978.[7]

Small Faces are also acknowledged as being one of the biggest original influences on the Britpop movement of the 1990s.[8] Despite the fact the band were together just four years in their original incarnation, the Small Faces’ music output from the mid to late sixties remains among the most acclaimed British mod and psychedelic music of that era.

Gli Small Faces furono fondati a Londra nel 1965 dal cantante e chitarrista Steve Marriott e dal bassista Ronnie Lane, ai quali si aggiunsero il batterista Kenney Jones, e Jimmy Winston, presto rimpiazzato da Ian McLagan come tastierista. La fine del gruppo viene datata con l’abbandono, nel 1968, da parte di Steve Marriott che fonderà gli Humble Pie con Peter Frampton, mentre gli altri tre con Ron Wood e Rod Stewart avranno fortuna nei Faces nel corso dei primi anni settanta. Nel 1976, in coincidenza col fortunato rilancio di Itchycoo Park e di Lazy Sunday, Marriott, Jones e McLagan riformeranno il gruppo con Rick Wills (che suonò nell’album Frampton’s Camel) e Jimmy McCullouch (ex Wings). Gli Small Faces “reunion”, effettueranno alcuni concerti nella primavera e nell’autunno del 1977 e incideranno un paio di album, Playmates (1977) e 78 in the Shade (1978), per poi sciogliersi definitivamente nel maggio 1978. Dopo sei mesi, Kenney Jones entrerà negli Who per sostituire Keith Moon. Nel 1991 Marriott morirà in un incendio scoppiato nella sua casa, mentre nel 1997 Lane si arrenderà alla sclerosi multipla che lo aveva afflitto dagli anni settanta.
