And you wiil say it again 50 years from now and still it´l be nonsesnse as any sentence ranking performers of any kind. Thank GOD we have plenty of them in an endless variety. Your favourite one? totally acceptable..."The best whatever. Period"?...nonsense.
This is my favourite song of all time, I am having it played at my funeral. Steve Marriott was an amazing talent, the energy and genius of the man was never really recognised and to lose him in a fire was unforgivable! God Bless Steve!
He set his own bed on fire - fell asleep drugged, drunk and with a cigarette - he only has himself to blame. And I have read biographies about him- he wasn't a very nice person - he was awful to Ronnie Lane who had MS - accused him of being drunk! Recollections vary regarding Marriot.
Him and the other small faces are not truly recognised for the talent they were Steve Marriott is one the greatest British R&B Soul singers we have ever had. A white man with a black man's soul voice.
An Absolute Force of Nature: Marriott Had EVERYTHING Great Voice, Great Guitarist (And He Was) , Great Presence, and Last but not Least GREAT TIMING, He just had IT whatever IT was, a Massive Loss his Death was, They Just Don’t Make Them Like This Anymore. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻🙏❤️🌞👑
Oh my God...how sad. 😢 Mr Marriott, live on, if only for the generations that never saw, and maybe never will, know what you did to change attitudes of small minds to make the world a more tolerant and accepting place for new generations. Maybe you didn't even know. I can't talk for anyone else, but people like you made a huge difference to the difficult childhood my sister and I had. We became brave enough to leave our home in secret one night, hitch-hike across australia as far away as we could get and take our chances on the streets. I know that sounds dramatic to people reading this. But it wasn't then. We did do it a bit tough. Anyway, many years ago now and much water under the bridge since then. Thank you. RIP ❤
Tin Soldier with PP on backing vocals is amazing - you'll find a nice video of this on TH-cam - I always thought her voice should have been louder though
Steve Marriott was a damn great musician and singer I think he was definitely one of the greatest man it was in his soul ,he never missed a beat ,30 days in the hole, honky tonk woman, Alabama, all or nothing, man there's so many I can't list them all he was awesome.
I was thinking of something appropriate to write when I scrolled to your words. Perfect. I can only add - if only he knew how much he was loved, adored and appreciated.
Saw him with Packet of Three in a small venue, brilliant gig didn't realise what a great guitarist he was and superb vocals. Had a quick chat with him after, lovely down to earth guy.
Blimey.......that made me shiver.........agree with all the comments.....I never knew any of his later stuff was recorded I saw him and the other players in this band at the Irish Centre in Digbeth Birmingham and he was wearing a bib and brace trousers then .....he died a few weeks later what a loss to Rock RIP Stevie you will never be forgotten......and thanks for this amazing video
I met him several times in the 60`s when his band The Frantics played in our local dance hall,a truly lovely bloke no side just another young man having the time of his life.Wish he was still with us.
So wish this Mega person was still with us as he would make today's so called music look like the pure noise that it is! Am so very happy that I grew up with this unssuepassable music!!
Absolutely terrific, thanks for sharing. I was Steve Marriott and his Packet of three band (I think he announced that they were The Official Receivers from then on) at a pub in Finchley back in about 1984 or 85. They were amazing. I remember getting the last tube back to Tooting Broadway right across London with a bursting bladder and staggering bent double into a shop doorway to relieve myself once we'd got back to Tooting. He's sadly missed, both a great voice and a great guitarist
I know. Just another reason I HATE tobacco, and especially cigarettes. I think his abilities on the guitar were still blossoming. What might he have obtained? Tobacco robbed us of Steve. (By the way, I used to smoke, but I quit over 40 years ago.)
OMG, was honoured to see Pie and the Small Faces many times, the Packet of Three only once - what a vocalist ! thank you for posting - as my tee shirt says 'I maybe old but i got to see all the great bands' ........... thank you Stevie !
Steve is our superstar reserved for those that heard a natural born talent, any guitar he picked sounded unique, his singing and writing all things that excelled at. He is a National treasure. He was always working and collaborating on something . He played the Harp too!
I was lucky to see him in Rehoboth DE. We can came back down for second day soundcheck and Marriott bought me a beer and played pinball with me. We had good weed and got invited onto the bus after that show. Spent some time with Goldie talking about the Vietnam war. How lucky to have caught time with Marriott just before his passing.
One of my heros growing up he was so special great voice great front man of the band rest in peace Steve marriot his music lives on in our minds and hearts for ever
When I watch the live performance of this song in 1966 it seems so ahead of its time. So much power and soul, it’s definitely not a pop song but it still reached the no.1 slot effortlessly.
I said it 50 years ago and I will say it today.
Steve was the best vocalist rock ever had. Period
agreed…100%
A voice like no other.
And you wiil say it again 50 years from now and still it´l be nonsesnse as any sentence ranking performers of any kind. Thank GOD we have plenty of them in an endless variety. Your favourite one? totally acceptable..."The best whatever. Period"?...nonsense.
@@felipelotas5609 Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I will stand by mine
Terry Reid was just as talented - actually more so.
It’s just a crime that Steve wasn’t a mega superstar worldwide. One of the best singers ever to come out of this country❤️❤️
This country? He's British
請問
Stevie is a legend
Rubbish!
He is not even close
RIP and long live Steve Marriott (January 30, 1947 - April 20, 1991), aged 44
You will always be remembered as a legend.
My brother once said "Steve Marriott should've been a superstar."
Damn right. Probably the greatest vocalist of his era.
WHO SAYS HE WASANT KEPT THE FLAME
@@mullcol Sorry?
He is, listening and watching such as this says so. Sad loss.
Its not like the Small Faces were obscure, they had number one hits in the UK and a run of big hits throughout the mid to late 60s
@@robertexley5193 Yes, I know, but I'm talking of the stratospheric stardom of Zeppelin etc.
This version of the song is superb and the late Steve's voice at this point in his life was outstanding.
Best front man ever to come out of the 60's, amazing voice, always pitch perfect..
Totally on a different level,,,,,,,,,,,,,he was a class act.
totally spot on,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,no one comes close to him in his day
True
Got that right. We miss you Steve.
great but best? no way
Raw emotion, Steve Marriot....his voice reaches your heart
No words can say what a legend Steve was a blues singer and guitar star .
RIP Stevie - You were the best and your music will live on forever...
True...
What a great version of All or nothing .......
I wish Steve Marriot would still be amongst us ...
Pure brilliance. No one these days comes close. RIP Stevie
May be Paul Weller can?
Weller?.. Do me a favour
..what about 'Stormsy' ...lol ...just joking ...of course Britain is finished !!!!!!!! . . . . . .
He's a hard act to follow
This is my favourite song of all time, I am having it played at my funeral. Steve Marriott was an amazing talent, the energy and genius of the man was never really recognised and to lose him in a fire was unforgivable! God Bless Steve!
Me too on the Funeral 😮
Yes, God bless his exceptional spirit ⭐️🌈🎶🎸🕊
Smoking in bed.
He set his own bed on fire - fell asleep drugged, drunk and with a cigarette - he only has himself to blame. And I have read biographies about him- he wasn't a very nice person - he was awful to Ronnie Lane who had MS - accused him of being drunk! Recollections vary regarding Marriot.
Steve was way more talented than given credit for. The ultimate vocalist and a great guitar player.
Yes absolutely true
Amen with jedus now
Jedus
With our lord forever
Well said!
Him and the other small faces are not truly recognised for the talent they were
Steve Marriott is one the greatest British R&B Soul singers we have ever had. A white man with a black man's soul voice.
....and he's in the rock and roll hall of fame!
Very well said. I fully agree!!!!
You clearly don’t remember Humble Pie, one of the worlds biggest bands back in the 70s?
I am talking in the general public not amongst his peers. They have never been recognised in the way their talent truly deserved.
Absolutely!! Besides, I love Kenney Jones' drumming.
Steve Marriott- King of the Mods. Legend.
An Absolute Force of Nature: Marriott Had EVERYTHING Great Voice, Great Guitarist (And He Was) , Great Presence, and Last but not Least GREAT TIMING, He just had IT whatever IT was, a Massive Loss his Death was, They Just Don’t Make Them Like This Anymore. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻🙏❤️🌞👑
JUst Curious, Why so Many Capitals?
Because that’s the Cockney London English way of doing things my Dear..😘😉 . Know what I mean 😜
He played Oliver Twist in the West End when he was 10 years old. And he was a great comedian. He was multi-talented.
One of the best songs written in the 60s and that’s saying something.
Oh my God...how sad. 😢 Mr Marriott, live on, if only for the generations that never saw, and maybe never will, know what you did to change attitudes of small minds to make the world a more tolerant and accepting place for new generations.

Agree that Steve Marriott was one of the best. I still put all my Small Faces CDs on player and listen all day!
The song itself is so powerful, but when you add that fantastic band with Steve;s powerful voice, it grows even bigger... what a sound... what a song.
So true and well said , peace
Packet of three. Live! I have the cd recording. It is all great.
As a Beatlesfan i have to admit that Tin Soldier is the best song of all time!
Agree just brill.
That's me as well fredglen.
To be fair, you ain't wrong 😉😉☮
Tin Soldier with PP on backing vocals is amazing - you'll find a nice video of this on TH-cam - I always thought her voice should have been louder though
@@jonnyrocket3659 I've just heard that version & couldn't hear her.
Probably the most down to earth legend ....and hugely talented...unique with super star quality vocal ...but normal guy...fantastic bloke
Lovely words Shane.
Absolutely right Shane, well said. 👍✌️
So very fucking influential on so many who followed. R.I.P. Steven Peter Marriott; absolutely one of a kind,once in a lifetime!
Yeah , and nonetheless, me ! Love this guy !
Steve Marriott - the greatest rock vocalist of all time!
Amen to that
PAUL RODGERS
@@fionabookie2781 We know!
@@donjohn2695 Paul was great but not even the same league as Steve Marriott.
All time hasn't happened.
Best Frontman EVER!!!! Wish I could have seen him perform live. There will never be another like him. So sad he’s gone❣️

This man put his all into every song he played......
He is a legend when it comes to singing.Such a sad ending he had R.I.P
We love you Steve Marriott , wherever you may meet a sunbeam on your way throughout this universe . Love from Germany.
The most soulful voice of the Brit 60s ! RIP Steve !
There was only ever one.......Steve Marriott. Never bettered, never even equalled. Love, peace and light
I was thinking of something appropriate to write when I scrolled to your words. Perfect. I can only add - if only he knew how much he was loved, adored and appreciated.
I always fill uplifted when I hear this great man singing.r.i.p Steve.
Best rock singer ever! I love is voice and being from Tennessee, I love the overhauls he is wearing!❤❤❤🙏
WHAT ABOUT YOUR NEIGHBOUR sTEVE WINWOOD? WHAT A PAIR.........
Looked the part guitar playing so good and what a voice what a voice I just couldn't take eyes of him and I miss him
Steve was one in a Million.
He truly was. His voice really breaks me up. . .
One of the very best, what a voice & what a tune ❤
Steve Mariott and his Small Faces that was no less than absolutely wonderful. Rock at its very best. Only few highlights followed (Queen). .
Finest version of this timeless sons I've heard!!! Steve is a true pro!!!!
One of my fav songs of all time , I turn it up full blast and takes me to a different place !.
Saw him with Packet of Three in a small venue, brilliant gig didn't realise what a great guitarist he was and superb vocals. Had a quick chat with him after, lovely down to earth guy.
I saw SF at a gig when I was 16. So electrifying live.

Steve Marriott sang with such intense feeling. Killer guitar player as well. He was the man.
I met him several times in the 60`s when his band The Frantics played in our local dance hall,a truly lovely bloke no side just another young man having the time of his life.Wish he was still with us.
I envy that you met my all or nothing post.
Alan ward of the honeycombs?
@@Selvikus Sadly no,just another Alan Ward
Can't thank Steve enough for his talent, feeling and pure Musicianship! Cannot be beaten!, this is with me always!
He had it all..long live the King
Everything about this, including your comment, is sublime. (Including your 'name') In Steve we trust.
Music like this lives on and on .. thank you Dad for telling me about Small Faces Steve Marriott you are special.
Loved you Steve, beautiful soul, talented writer and performer, gone too soon. Always your fan.....
So wish this Mega person was still with us as he would make today's so called music look like the pure noise that it is! Am so very happy that I grew up with this unssuepassable music!!
Pure Perfection Unbeatable!!! Rock on Stevie! Love you Always! X
Best Rock Voice bar none! And had the privilege of working for him in the mid 80’s. Lovely man with that voice or nothing!
Steve had a one of a kind voice and an infectious smile, he was one of the memorable greats.
Saw Steve and Humble Pie in the late 70s...so thankful...he was a genius...consummate musician and artist...
I would describe him more as a PERFORMER because he went to Italia Conti and learnt to PERFORM. Knew all the tricks.
Absolutely terrific, thanks for sharing. I was Steve Marriott and his Packet of three band (I think he announced that they were The Official Receivers from then on) at a pub in Finchley back in about 1984 or 85. They were amazing.

Just great to hear him once and once again!!!
what a sad loss, great voice n style.
Well I was born in 1999 somewhere in Mexico, but music doesn’t have boundaries when it comes to ears... what a lovely melody ❤️🇬🇧
Great words Aime M.
Underrated and unforgotten. Top Five Singer of all Time.
Utterly spine-tingling. The energy in that voice.
Just Brilliant...Classic Small Faces track performed superbly here by Stever Marriot....R.I.P......
He was here in Cali, flew home and died that night in a fire. It was heartbreaking for those of us that grew up with, and loved his voice.
Was lucky to see a gig from this tour at The Cotton Club Newport way back in1985. Brilliant memories. 😎 Thank you for the brill upload.
Filmed at "The Camden Palace" London 1985. On bass-Jim Leverton, on drums-Jerry Shirly.
R.I.P Thank You for your voice and talent
He Was Just So Awesome.
I'm so sad that we had to loose this immensely talented man. What a voice he had!
RIP Steve 💙
I know. Just another reason I HATE tobacco, and especially cigarettes. I think his abilities on the guitar were still blossoming. What might he have obtained? Tobacco robbed us of Steve. (By the way, I used to smoke, but I quit over 40 years ago.)
Another legend who was taken well before his time. Such a talented man who could have gone on to even greater things.
RIP steve, you will live on forever in your superior music,
A genuine live performance from one of the Greats!!!
Steve Marriott - Legend. RIP.
A legend is what he is ☮️👍
Jesus..before this I hadn't cried for years. Mods for ever
Faaark, times gone by..... will always sound great!

Great distinctive voice.
i lost count of the times i saw stevie play...always awesome
I only saw him twice. Once, in April of '71 (Humble Pie / with Frampton), and again a couple of years later (Humble Pie / with Clem).
I was lucky to see him in Rehoboth DE. We can came back down for second day soundcheck and Marriott bought me a beer and played pinball with me.
We had good weed and got invited onto the bus after that show. Spent some time with Goldie talking about the Vietnam war.
How lucky to have caught time with Marriott just before his passing.
All or Nothing is the title of the book that just came out about Steve. I've read the beginning and he was a complex person. So very talented
Blues and soul in one.All time great singers so much passion.Thanks Stevie.
What a voice Steve had. Taken from us too soon. RIP Steve
All or Nothing with out a doubt my favourite Small faces song!!
true Hero ; greatly missed for soooooo long already...
One of my heros growing up he was so special great voice great front man of the band rest in peace Steve marriot his music lives on in our minds and hearts for ever
Beautiful comments in this comment section. Steve's gift will stay with us forever xx
I saw him live in West Germany in August of 1977, he was awesome!
He was in a class of his own.no comparison,.r.I.p.
Everything I like about live music Brilliant
Steve Marriott is one of those musicians (like Marc Bolan, John Lennon, Randy California… ) whose passing hit me hard. Gone tragically too soon.
Still playing and loving this song at gigs. You can really express yourself on the drums!
You’re one lucky 🍀 fella , just trying to do ‘Tin soldier ‘ on guitar . Peace out
When I watch the live performance of this song in 1966 it seems so ahead of its time. So much power and soul, it’s definitely not a pop song but it still reached the no.1 slot effortlessly.
An absolute legend 👌
another great gone to soon musician of the highest calibre
Used to live in Colliers Wood in 91. Unfortunately, I missed seeing him in putney 😢
What a great musician he was. Has left us much too early...
Soooooo glad I came across this 🙏🏻🙏🏻☮💜
Steve Marriot had one of the most powerful voices in all of Rock & Roll! Him not being a household name is a crime. His story is tragic!
I just loved Steve married he was the best.
He is a household name if you hang out in the right households!
The best ever….period. Makes me proud to be from East London.
Legend.....wish I could go to his gig now...
oustanding song from an oustanding singer, Steve Marriot the original and the best
