The Small Faces: Ogden’s Nut Gone Flake
Keith Altham, NME, June 1968
The Small Faces new album Ogdens Nut Gone Flake (Immediate), apart from being encased in the first circular sleeve I have ever seen, is a landmark for the group "A Storm-braining Electrilode of the Highest Tudeimagns" as their narrator on side two, Stanley Unwin, might put it and almost certain to put the group in the same smash album selling bracket as the Beach Boys, the Stones, the Jimi Hendrix Experience.
