Mind you, the bar had been set extremely low since that release with a trio of stinkers beginning with ‘Indie Cindy’ (2014) and ending with 2019’s ‘Beneath the Eyrie’ but lets not take anything away from ‘Doggerel’, its got plenty to offer. My biggest complaints with their previous three albums was how tame (pun intended) they were. Forget slicing up eyeballs more like slicing up cucumbers, but here the attitudes back along with the weirdness,fun, sexual innuendos, spoken lyrics, quiet / loud and great guitar licks. Hell there’s even a 12 caret gold standard track that sits amongst their finest tunes EVER and of course I’m referring to the incredible “There’s A Moon On”
But it does have its flaws which begin and end with Joeys song writing debut on his “Dregs of the Wine” and even worse track “Pagen Man”. Don’t leave your day job Joey. And the strangely tacked onto the end title track “Doggerel” oddly feels out of place
Where is my mind?

Way out in the water it’s saying ‘Doggerel’ goes alright

"An impressive sophomore record merging cool club beats with airy pop structures and samples from the telly to paint (similarly to "foxbase alpha") an impressionistic portrait of London. Bright and bubbly with hints of longing, a variety of moods come together really well."Reply

Yes, I'm aware those songs are respectively on, A hard day's night, and, Help!, but what I was referring to on that point was, Past masters, as a coherent listening experience. Yes, it mops up the songs not on any 'official' albums, but that's all it does, sonically it's all over the place. This is maybe the only Beatles compilation you need theoretically, but it's too uneven to work as an album. As I said a UK singles album from Love me do, to, Let it be, and their B-sides would be the ultimate Beatles comp which would flow effortlessly and as well as sonically it would also historically be a great listening experience and yes, feature, Can't buy me love, and, Ticket to ride, but technically, as it is, Past masters, is the only essential compilation.

"The Autumn Stone" became to some extent this successor, and the album which was originally a double album, contains some of these “post-ONGF” recordings. The album that was first released in 1969 by Immediate and never approved by the group members was a mixture of old and new - demos and live recordings.
Immediate had obtained a license to include the group's big hits for Decca such as "All or Nothing", "My Mind's Eye" and "Whatcha Gonna Do About it." The later Immediate hits were naturally also obvious choices for such a release, but most interesting were, of course, the previously unreleased songs, some of which presumably would have been found on what would have been the group's third studio album for Immediate. These include for an exciting interpretation of Tim Hardin's "Red Balloon" and Steve Marriott's own "The Autumn Stone" - both tracks show the group on their way in new directions - more subdued and complex melodies.
"Call it Something Nice" is a classic Small Faces at its best. Instrumental tracks "Collibosher" and "Wide Eyed Girl on the Wall" are fine numbers, for which vocals may have been intended. The singles "The Universal" and "Wham Bam Thank You Mam" also have been the logical inclusions on the album. On this CD re-release also has the late B-side "Donkey Rides a Penny a Glass".
It seems that there are still unreleased recodings with the group, including a cover of "Be My Baby" and a version of "Groovy" with Stve Marriott lead-vocals. This is a song group also recorded with PP Arnold for her debut album.
Finally, on the CD contains 5 live tracks from a concert in 1968 - two of them are also new additions. All in all a fine and essential part of the Small Faces catalogue.

"I’m a huge fan of this duo and here they tone back the Psychocandy blast of 2007’s ‘Lust Lust Lust’ for a more familiar mellow pop feel, personally I prefer the ear splitting reverb of the former but none the less this is another excellent album from Denmarks best"Reply
