Darlings of Wapping Wharf Launderette

The Small Faces were One of the Greatest English Bands of the ’60s. Starting as a Tough Mod R&B Group, They Evolved Into an Inventive, Psychedelic-tinged Rock Band Before Splitting Up in 1968 When Singer Steve Marriott Left to Form Humble Pie. “The Darlings of Wapping Wharf Launderette”, the First Collection Authorised by the Surviving Members of the Group, is a Long Overdue, Definitive 50-track Anthology of the Small Faces’ 1966-1968 Stint with the Legendary Immediate Records Label. Comprised of Rare Singles, Alternate Takes, and the Two Albums the Band Recorded for Immediate (Including the Entire Ogden’s Nut Gone Flake), “The Darlings of Wapping Wharf Launderette” is Packed with Prime Tracks that Range from the Hazy Flower Power of “Here Comes the Nice”, “Itchycoo Park”, and “Lazy Sunday” to the Lesser-known but No Less Sublime Psych-pop of “Green Circles”, and the Gritty R&B of “my Way of Giving”.
