Public Address: IF IT’S TOO LOUD, YOU’RE TOO OLD

Public Address: MUSIC WITH BITE!

"I don't think successful musicians were really put on this planet in order to have a great time, pat themselves on the back and say "Oh, what a clever boy or girl I am!" I think that like most creative people, we were put on Earth to suffer slightly - and we do!" Ian Anderson Musician

Public Address: POP SCENE

“I love John Lennon’s songs. In the Beatles, if you said it was one of your songs, it basically meant it was your idea. So Eleanor Rigby was my song, but John helped me finish it. A Day in the Life was his, but I helped him finish it. He came up with 'I read the news today' and I came up with 'he blew his mind out in a car'.” Sir Paul McCartney Musician

Public Address: The SMALL FACES Story

The Small Faces were an English pop/rock band from London, founded in 1965. The group originally consisted of singer/guitarist Steve Marriott, bassist Ronnie Lane, drummer Kenney Jiones and keyboardist Jimmy Winstone, with Ian McLagan replacing Winston in 1966. The outfit was initially one of the most acclaimed and influential mod groups of the mid-1960s, with many hit singles. From 1967, they evolved into one of the UK's most successful psychedelic bands, achieving further hit singles and albums. Public Address presents the Small Faces Story.
