Small Faces合唱團與Steve Marriott

1991年的今天(4/20)搖滾樂團Small Faces 和Humble Pie的領隊Steve Marriott在他英國Essex的家中死於一場火災(44歲),他的音樂對1990年代許多樂團有很重要的影響,Small Faces的單曲Itchycoo Park 1967年曾獲得英國排行第3名(美國獲第16名),而專輯Ogden's Nut Gone Flake則獲得英國排行冠軍。Humble Pie 於1969年則有一首英國排行第4名的歌Natural Born Bugie。


Small Faces 1969年改名Faces,後來團員Rod Stewart成了歌壇巨星,但1968年Steve Marriott即離團而去另組Humble Pie,這個團後來也出了一位紅歌星Peter Frampton。

Itchycoo Park

Small Faces



Over bridge of sighs to rest my eyes

In shades of green

Under dreaming spires, to Itchycoo park

That's where I've been



What did you do there? I got high

What did you feel there? Well I cried

But why the tears there? Tell you why

It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful

it's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful



I feel inclined to blow my mind

Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun

They all come out to groove about

While I search for fun in the sun



I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)

I'd like to go there now with you

You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)

Why go to learn the words of fools



What do we do there? Well get high

(What will we touch there?) We'll touch the sky

But why the tears there? I'll tell you why

It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful

It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful



I feel inclined to blow my mind .......



It's all too beautiful
