Cool videos for the Small Faces Fan

"This is a two CD set. The first CD contains the audio for 10 songs from various European TV appearances from 1966 to 1968. The second CD contains Quick Time videos of the same 10 songs. The second CD also contains the Quick Time software you need to run the videos. The videos are all B&W and the quality of both sound and image is pretty good considering the vintage, but certainly not great by recent standards. I would recommend this set to any Small Faces fan who would, like me, enjoy seeing these historic TV appearances. Especially the first 4 cuts in which you get to see the Small Faces rockin' hard in front of a packed studio audience of dancing German kids. Pretty cool. However, if you are new to the Small Faces or if you are looking for a retrospective, this set would not be a good purchase because the sound quality is not top-notch. In the last few years there have been several high quality single and multi-CD sets that have been released that will give you a better introduction to this great, great band.If you're not a fan of the Small Faces at all, then you've been missing out!"

The Small Faces as they were meant to be

"What a great CD this is-an album of live cuts from the early days PLUS a CD with quicktime video clips-all for the price of a single album. Some of the videos are stock stuff for TV consumption (pre-MTV) but 4 of the cuts are the band LIVE on German TV in 1966--well worth the price of admission alone. An awesome performance of 'What'Cha Gonna Do About It' with Steve Marriott giving it his all will show you why this band was one of the best to ever come out of the UK. Pre-psychedelic, high-energy R+B played with attitude by boys who cared. Mod music at it's finest."
