Small Faces – Ogden’s Nut Gone Flake


Small Faces on a French show called ‘Surprise Partie’. This show aired the 31st of December 1968 having been recorded some time earlier and is probably the last time the band were on TV together. I know this as the band did a gig at London’s Alexandra Palace on that very New Years Eve and Steve Marriott thought the gig was a disaster and stormed off stage and handed in his notice. After honouring a few more gigs in Europe he then formed Humble Pie while the rest of the band would go on to form the Faces with Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood.
