The Autumn Stone
by Small Faces
The 1378th greatest album of all time
The Autumn Stone is a 1969 compilation by Small Faces that collects singles, album tracks and previously unreleased material from the band's late 1960s period. Musically it spans their mod R&B and soul roots through the more psychedelic, studio-oriented work they explored later, featuring prominent organ and guitar interplay, tight vocal harmonies and Steve Marriott's distinctive lead singing. Issued after the group's breakup, the set functions as a retrospective that highlights both their punchy mod numbers and more ornate, experimental arrangements.
