NO CONDITION IS PERMANENT [Episode #489 ~ 03-28-26]
Pictured: The Small Faces (x3).
Although few executives and managers were as brutal as Sharon Osbourne’s father [Small Faces manager Don Arden], most had no more time for artists’ complaints than he did. Steve Marriott was notorious for speaking his mind, an attitude that sprang from a pronounced class-consciousness and a belief that talent would be enough to see him through. In 1966, it got the Small Faces excluded fromTop of the Pops. Believing that the show’s producer was retiring, Marriott strode up to him after miming their latest single, ‘My Mind’s Eye’, and announced, ‘I’m glad you’re leaving. I always thought you were a major cunt.’ The BBC producer calmly informed him that it was another member of the crew who was leaving, then showed Marriott the studio door and told him not to return. The singer discovered the hard way that a refusal to play the game was just as costly in the music industry after the artists’ revolt of the 1960s as it had been in the days of Tin Pan Alley. In short, it had become acceptable to drop your Hs, but if you didn’t mind your Ps and Qs you could still get into a lot of trouble.
