Small Faces - There Are But Four Small Faces

180-gram vinyl

Original LP artwork faithfully reproduced plus full color inner sleeves

Includes Small Faces/Immediate Records/Air Studios collectors obi strip

With surviving Small Faces member Kenney Jones' full involvement, swinging London's much-loved mod quartet have their classic Immediate Records albums newly mastered to vinyl by long-term Small Faces remastering engineer Nick Robbins with lacquers cut at half-speed by Barry Grint, senior mastering engineer at Air Studios.

Immediate Records label manager and Small Faces reissue producer Rob Caiger has continued his 20-year quest with Jones to recover missing tapes to ensure the best possible sources are used for the new editions while also upgrading LP packaging.

Small Faces (1967); There Are But Four Small Faces (1968); Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake (1968) and Greatest Hits will be relaunched with Immediate Records catalog numbers. The Autumn Stone will appear later in 2023 on multiple formats, including a deluxe boxset. LPs are pressed on 180-gram black vinyl + limited edition color vinyl with original LP artwork faithfully reproduced plus full color inner sleeves on reverse-board card, all housed in a protective PVC wallet. Every LP will come with a Small Faces/Immediate Records/Air Studios collectors obi-strip customized for each LP edition.

Compiled from stereo versions and different takes of songs from the U.K. mono Small Faces LP plus stereo mixes of U.S. hits "Itchycoo Park" and "Tin Soldier" plus "Green Circles" and "Here Come The Nice." Fully-illustrated in-depth sleeve notes by American music journalist and author Ken Sharp has exclusive interviews with Olympic Studios engineer George Chkiantz, fellow Immediate Records artist PP Arnold, renowned photographer Gered Mankowitz and commentary by Eric Carmen ("All By Myself," The Raspberries) and Californian journalist Harvey Kubernik.
