Every Small Faces Fan Must have. NEVER been played only out of the box to take photos of for listing on here.
Here Come The Nice, a deluxe heavyweight box set chronicling the group's career on Andrew Loog Oldham's pioneering Immediate Records label, curated by surviving band members Kenney Jones and Ian McLagan. A whopping 75 songs including every hit single, A & B side released worldwide on Immediate Records plus a generous bounty of unreleased material, outtakes, early and alternate versions, live tracks and previously unheard recording sessions from Olympic, Trident and IBC Studios, all sourced and remastered from recently discovered original master and multitrack tapes.
The lavish 72-page hardback book, with a heartfelt foreword by Pete Townshend and introduction by Kenney and Mac, is full of previously unseen photos and rare memorabilia, a career overview by esteemed Mojo magazine scribe Mark Paytress, copious and revealing track-by-track annotation, new testimonials from the likes of Robert Plant, Paul Weller, David Bowie, Nick Mason, Peter Frampton - and much more.
The box is crammed full with exclusive extras, such as replicas of three of the rarest Small Faces EPs in colored vinyl, a rare Olympic Studios acetate, large-size repro posters, fine art prints, 64-page fully illustrated lyric booklet, collectors postcards and more, all paying testament to the enduring musical genius of the Small Faces.
