Talk:There Are But Four Small Faces

'Blackberries' personnel credit

Are we sure about this or is it just a bit of cheerful speculation? While The Blackberries did indeed serve as backing vocalists for Steve Marriott's next band Humble Pie, that was in the mid-1970s. I'm not sure The Blackberries even existed as a unit as 1967... Also, I understood that the backing vocals on the particular track they're credited with here were - in keeping with the Small Faces' taste for occasional comical gimmickry - a combination of P.P Arnold's vocals, paired with Marriott's and Ronnie Lane's played back at a faster speed.

Studio album or compilation?

Is it actually a studio album or just a compilation of half a studio album (Small Faces (1967 album) - 7 of 14 tracks) plus some A and B sides? If the latter, should it be reclassified on Wikipedia? 2.24.70.191 (talk) 15:03, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

It's a studio album. Discussions at the talk page of Yesterday and Today seem relevant to this sort of question. Tkbrett (✉) 15:43, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

Have bounced the discussion over there and tagged you in it. 2.24.70.191 (talk) 17:34, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

I didn't mean to renew a discussion over there – editors have already concluded that Yesterday and Today is a studio album, not a compilation. Instead, I just wanted to point out how the thinking has already pointed towards There Are But Four Small Faces also being a studio album. Here is another discussion that I think is even more helpful: Talk:The Beatles discography/Archive 4 § Gaining consensus. Tkbrett (✉) 19:51, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
