From the Beginning is the first compilation album by the English rock band Small Faces. It was released by Decca Records of group material after the band had left the record label; it consisted of the band's Decca hit singles combined with various unreleased recordings.
The album was released by Don Arden on Decca after the group had made a switch to the Immediate label headed by Andrew Loog Oldham. The album contains their hit records on Decca including their number one song "All or Nothing". The album also includes a cover of Del Shannon's classic hit song "Runaway", and other previously unissued songs which were apparently demos... - Wikipedia

Das Studioalbum #RoughMix von #PeteTownshend und #RonnieLane erschien 1977, erreichte Platz 44 der britischen Charts und Platz 45 in den USA. Als Singles wurden „Annie“ und „My Baby Gives It Away“ veröffentlicht, blieben aber erfolglos. Die Aufnahmen waren geprägt von prominenten Gastmusikern wie Eric Clapton. Ursprünglich als Soloalbum geplant, wurde es zu einem Gemeinschaftsprojekt.

"Ooh La La" is a 1973 song by the English #rock band #Faces, written by #RonnieLane and #RonnieWood. It is the title song of the band's last studio album, #OohLaLa. The lead vocals were provided by Wood, a rarity in the band's catalogue; lead vocals were usually performed by #RodStewart and less often by Ronnie Lane. Stewart and Lane each recorded lead vocals for the song, but reportedly neither was satisfied by their attempt.

PETE TOWNSHEND & RONNIE LANE
Rough Mix
1983 Canada reissue
Hurdling towards the end of the week with this underrated gem.
I’ve always had a great deal of love and affection for this record. Probably more love than I do The Who’s Face Dances or It’s Hard.
I’ve gotten far more enjoyment from this than I ever did The Who’s last gasp.
There’s so many good songs here.
Lane’s “Nowhere To Run” is just a killer, and Townshend’s “Heart To Hang Onto” is one of his best songs, period.
I discovered this album REALLY late; somtime in early 2000, when I was preparing to pick up and move to #nyc . I have listened to it a handful of times every year since then, & it’s one of those “comforting old friend” type records.

The prompt is Forever
Billy Nichols, “Forever’s No Time at All” from Pete Townshend’s “Who Came First” 1972
I recall reading that after dropping acid and getting the feeling that he wasn’t in his body, #PeteTownshend went searching for something more. He became a follower of the teachings of Indian guru Meher Baba, sprinkling references in #TheWho's output and, with fellow-devotee chums, recording a couple of albums in his honor.
For Who Came First, regarded as his first solo release (get the cover pic pun?🥚), he took some tracks from those albums, tweaked some of his Lifehouse demos, and recorded some additional tracks. It’s all Pete except for a #RonnieLane track with Pete on guitar, and the Billy Nichols track where Pete doesn’t appear at all.
I love this album despite its demo-y feel (or maybe "because of,” in a pre-Scoop world?) because it's Pete; ironically I’m featuring its one Pete-free track, but it's a good one.
Musikklassiker: "Rough Mix" von #PeteTownshend & #RonnieLane
#RoughMix - ein faszinierendes Kollaborationsalbum zweier britischer Rocklegenden!
Veröffentlicht am 16. September 1977 vereinte dieses Werk Pete Townshend (Gitarrist von #TheWho) und Ronnie Lane (ehemaliger Bassist der #SmallFaces und Faces) in einem einzigartigen musikalischen Dialog.

"Itchycoo Park" is a song by English rock band Small Faces, written by #SteveMarriott and #RonnieLane. Largely written by Lane, it was among a number of pop songs of the era to make use of #flanging, an effect involving, at that time, electro-mechanical processes. The song was not included on any of their UK albums, but was however featured on the North American release #ThereAreButFourSmallFaces (1968). Released on 4 August 1967 by #ImmediateRecords.
