Small Faces 1966 Single ~ "My Mind's Eye"
"My Mind's Eye" was originally intended to be an album track by the band
but was released as a single without their knowledge or consent whilst touring in the north of England.
Don Arden had been eager for the group to release a song before Christmas and released an unfinished, rough demo copy in his possession. The single was a hit, reaching number 4 on the UK singles chart,
but in terms of relations between Arden and Small Faces, it was to signal the end
of the band's relationship with both Arden and Decca.[1]
