The BBC put this full concert on one night...with the film about him too...great night's viewing...they need to get it on again, I can record it this time!
@cje49 Very nice. I've got 'The Passing Show' on DVD, the film about Ronnie...is this what you're talking about a performance video? Be great if so. Thanks. Adam
@burnsybaby1987 Sadly I doubt there is video of that show.About 5 songs were recorded live for his opening LP as "Slim Chance." I still play his youtubes to cheer myself up. His enthusiasm and songs are great after all these years..christopher
@cje49 Still, a great show to have been at. Yeh his music is amazing...I didn't know much about him until that film aired, I found myself liking him and certain ballads, April Fool...Just For A Moment...in the face of such a 'heavy' period (with the likes of the Faces, Who, Led Zeppelin) knocking about Ronnie downrooted it and stripped it bare. He tied in with that English folk 'revival' (Lindisfarne etc.) he even had Gallagher and Lyle in his band. I also heard his more laidback and...
@burnsybaby1987 more DIY style influenced Eric Clapton, who hung around with him in the late 70's...there's a wonderful story that the first airing of 'Wonderful Tonight' was to Ronnie Lane and guests, sat round a bonfire one night. Isn't that glorious?
@superglens67 Pretty sure he's in DADF#AD (open D) tuning, capo 3rd fret so D sounds F. The 12-string is in standard. The verses are F - Gm(7), which in his tuning goes just between open and like an E shape. Chorus is, I think, Dm - Am - Gm7 - F. Haven't played it in a while.... easiest Dm is x20020, Am is xx4340, . But he's playing the chorus chords further up the neck, so I can't tell you the exact fingerings. I haven't played it in a while so hopefully memory serves.
@affectionatepunch Keith Richards also helped quite a bit. He had an aunt who had MS and he paid for Ronnie to stay at a treatment center he'd bought in Florida in the early 80's. He also sent Steve Marriott there to help Ronnie while he was there. Which birthed the Majik Mijit project, the last time Marriott/Lane worked together.
I remember way back in 1972, when I bought the 45 single of Stay With Me, flipping it over to the B side, and hearing this, one of the greatest songs ever written!
What an artist, God bless, Ronnie, I wish I'd met you.
@dalgais1 . Not sure if I am repeating myself. The first post didn't seem to go. I used a Lane track on a family cine on my youtube account. Someone approved. Mentioned that Slim Chance were on the road again.
and that there was a DVD of "Passing Show" being issued. Turns out that he was the director of the BBC film.
and involved with the touring this year. People you meet on the internet!!!
I had the luxury, thanks to my older Sister, growing up listening to Ronnie Lane , from the Small Faces on. One of the many things I have to thank her for.
Even after all these years he still makes the hairs on my neck stand up.
One of the greatest songwriters ever and thankfully an inspiration to many musicians of my geheration.
Thank you very much Ronnie, may your legacy live on.
@noelliam67 not sure it is open tuning. i've been playing it E, Fsharp minor, E, Fsharp minor (verse) and, Csharp minor, Gsharp minor, G, Fsharp minor, E, Fsharp minor, C. Good luck
est3inb3rg,yeah, i've seen some of the Matlock footage. Glen must be in his element, he made no secret about being into the Faces when he was in the Pistols and suffered much derision, but I bet Steve Jones would give his right arm to play alongside Woody ( bit of Irony ). Watch Glen when he plays with the Faces, he knows hes filling a huge hole
This number always grabs me, makes me think of my old man, working at a government supply depot and being in a union. Ian McLagan does a phenomenal version of this live and also a very cool version on his CD "Spiritual Boy".
THE CLEVER ONE IN THE FACES AND SMALLS. PLONK HAD SO MUCH TALENT AND MELODY IN HIS HEAD. HE NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO BLOSSOM FULLY. HIS TRACKS ARE CLASSICS. WE TRY TO DO CREDIT TO SOME OF THEM, WE LET FOLKS KNOW HOW GOOD RONNIE WAS AND HIS MEMORY SHOULD NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. CHEERS RONNIE THE ACE FACE
The Faces recently got back together for a few surprise gigs. Ron Wood, Mac and Kenney, with Ronnies good friend Bill Wyman filling in for him on bass, and Mick Hucknall doing a great job on vocals. That croaky voiced, raggy haired twat was too busy making a crap covers album that will be on sale at filling stations for 2.99
@toshishimura Bill Wyman was on bass for the October 2009 gig in London, but when they toured in 2010 it was Glen Matlock of Sex Pistols. Hope they're planning to go through with the 2011 world tour still, as I would love to see them
God Bless you Ronnie !!!...REALLY missed and songs that have REAL meaning.....I'm sure Ronnie would have grabbed Rodney and got him back into the REAL world.
Yes one of the true greats, Shame the small faces were ripped off and revived no royalties from there songs and Ronnie had to live his final years on hand outs
Slim Chance are gigging again doing Ronnie's songs. Going to see them at Worthen Village Hall/Shropshire on Nov 13th. A beery cheery Ronnie Laney night in store.
I used to play this song over and over and over, a big deal since it was an LP and I had to place the needle every time! How amazing to see videos such as this now.
most 'love' songs are about trying to get into the underwear of the other - not necessarily a bad thing, but mostly they are trite performed by awful people posturing. This song has so much more to it: genuine love & everyone is smiling & utterly absorbed in the moment.
Thank you for the response. I always assumed it was akin to a "rummage sale", but could never verify it and didn't want to sound ignorant. Thanks again~~~~
@sund7cuU The Debris was an expression to refer to bomb sites left after the bombing in London following WW2. They'd be used for markets that sprang up and also kids would play on them. Many of these sites remained until redevelopment in the 1960's.
@shanemacify thanks -yes I know that- I was just explaining where the song got its name. One thing for sure- we all have excellent taste in loving Ronnie's songs.
man this was the best faces song ever .I've still got the origial l.p Ibought about 36 years ago.the best rock album ever NODS AS GOOD A S A WINK TO A BLIND HORSE .The Faces rock :)
Alot of people don't know alot of songs being covered by other artists were written by Ronnie Lane. An amazing artist. "Nods as good as a wink to a blind horse"...how true, man.
I can hardly listen to this song without crying, not because it's so sad, just because it's so beautiful. Ronnie had a gift like nobody else. What an incredible individual.
@numberstation Ronnie Lane was a true gent and smiled his way happily through life and made many others smile with his music, as the saying goes: 'only the good die young' he was truly good.
Ronnie Lane's music touched my troubled teenage soul. I'd forgotten. Now I'm the age he was when he left us and I've rediscovered his tracks that the needle long ago scratched away on my old Faces albums and I just want to pay tribute to him and his wonderful music
[ R.I.P ] Ronnie Lane. Ronnie Materials N' Rod Stewart on Backing Vocals Is awesome it's more dramatic... : ) Did anyone knows how debris started why ronnie lane wrote it. Thanks....
i can play this very well but isnt this from the UK?..i was thinkin of doin a cover in the studio..i mostly play richie havens...im an audio engineer lol
i dont think rod sang on the 45 it was ronnie im sure ?he lived not far from me years a go when he was in slim chance saw them in a field with tents at the time never knew how important it whould be the man is and was a legend
what a fantastic song and singer plonk is so so underrated. thanks pisspatch and all you other guys who post these songs on here it really is appreciated.

I echo everything that 'charlton5' said. This is my favourite song ever, Rod did it well, but this has even more feeling
