Die SMALL FACES feiern den Fünfzigsten ihres Psychedelic-Klassikers „Ogdens’ Nut Gone Flake“

In May 1968 the Small Faces released "Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake". An album that caused a sensation not only because of its spectacular cut-out cover, but also because of the story of a man who sets out in search of the lost half of the moon. The classic will be re-released in various formats on the fiftieth anniversary of its release. We talk to small faces drummer Kenney Jones (70) about the timelessness of this milestone.

eclipsed: Why is Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake so popular today?

Kenney Jones: Because it's a great album and people love it. It was also one of the first concept albums in rock history. But above all, the record lives on. It always wins new generations for itself because it contains timeless music. And I myself have by no means finished it. I'm currently working on an animated film for "Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake", which tells the story, but at the same time spins it on.
