steve marriott's forbidden past

here's some sho' nuff bizarre vid of 16-year-old steve marriott playing drums (!) behind a brit buddy holly wannabe called heinz (whose look predicts whole battalions of '80s losers), with blow up film star david hemmings on gtr.



and here he is fronting the very early small faces (who never toured america) in the film dateline diamonds, when they still had the guy (jimmy winstone) they fired for being too tall instead of ian mclagen. smart move -- he looks like a douchebag.
