Ronnie and I were in the same class at school in England. Every morning he would be happy and laughing. Always remember his chubby cheeks! Had no idea his mum was sick with MS. Had no idea where he was headed in life. April 1st stirs up emotions for me. I was born on the 24th so that's why we were in the same classroom. I am in America now. My heart cries for you Ronnie dear.
i got into ronnie because of ms. my niece was ill with it. she passed away last year at age 40. love ronnies music. i live in louisiana with my wife of49 years 1o months and 26 days. take care.
What a wonderful memory you wright for the world to learn a little about this great man. RIP Ronnie. You are missed by so many. Andrew in Lancashire UK.
Wow, have loved Ronnie since his days with the Faces. Some of the best music written and played from any genre. I hope to meet him somewhere in the either life.
April Fool Happy Birthday Ronnie you are greatly missed. Loved your music and your band the Small Faces. Sad though for all the music you took with you. Wishing you were still here. ☮️🙏❤️
What a class act as a person Ronnie Lane was. It's 1977. Punk, disco, and throwbacks to the 50s are the rage. Ronnie feels no need to slum his look and appears in an immaculate pink tie and waistcoat like he's getting married. Song of a Baker, man!
He was...is...a singer/songwriter whose work, voice, and personality I SO admired and always enjoyed as much if not more and his work equal to anyone else! SO underrated, SO ripped off, and in many ways SO innocent and TOO easy going for his own good (at the start all the small faces were but particularly him...he never changed) he was always who he was, NO subterfuge! Yet...he was as human...in the good sense...as anyone could hope for! God bless you Ronnie and I pray you are enjoying life in Heaven or at least on your way there!
@@jameswitham2141 Yes, and he co-wrote most everything they did with Steve Marriott. This early experience made him a hell of a songwriter in his later years.
It's too early in the morning, and I am too sad right now to hear this. But it WILL get better. And then I'll come back here and cry my eyes out with happiness that Ronnie existed, if only for a little while...
Ronnie Lane is there anything else to say? One of my favorite song writers truly a treasure that should never be forgotten. One could argue that RS was not the magic it was Ronnie Lane and Ronnie Wood.
SO Bitter Sweet how such a talent got SO screwed by SO many and died SO unrewarded and unrecognized for the GREAT he was...IS...GOD Bless and Rest your Soul Ronnie!!!
I've seen this clip several times, but when that bus appears at the beginning, I always expect the girls from St Trinian's to be hanging out of the windows and screaming :O Today is the 1st April always a good day to listen to this and remember Ronnie.
All of this footage was lifted (without permission from our documentary about Ronnie, the Passing Show that came out in 2006, that opening sequence was filmed by my friend James Mackie from the back of my mum's comfortable ford escort, I was driving, be nice if they at least gave us the credit for it, let alone pay us !!!
@@MrRupw I bought a DVD of The Passing Show back when it came out, and recognized the footage. The story of how they went around was distinctive; it left a real impression on me. Thank you for making it.
Lovely, loving, wistful song. Always loved 'Evolution' off Pete's 'Who Came First' too, only came across a seemingly reliable set of lyrics recently, though I almost never play anymore. My first band did 'You're so Rude' in the mid-70s, I did it with my own band and solo subsequently. I had a copy of the Rolling Stone issue covering the ARMS concerts for decades, may still be here somewhere, hope so. )
Este álbum é muito especial. Todas as faixas são fantásticas. Keep me Turning, April Fool, Street in the City e Heart to Hang Onto me levam às lágrimas de tão belas.

He had gentleness and innocence when singing...we will never forget you Ronnie..
Rough Mix is a masterpiece.
My car got broken into years ago - stole this CD. Only thing I was vexed about! I replaced it!
It absolutely is. A timeless classic. A comfortable old sweater. Brilliant work. Thanks Ronnie and Pete.
Happy Birthday Ronnie!
I know, you know that you're an April Fool...
REST EASY BUDDY

I thank God for creating Ronnie Lane. Then God broke
the mold. There will never be another like Ronnie. Lane...
Saw him in the fantastic, long gone, mid seventies. He was wonderful.
A great man. Not bogged down by fame for its own sake. Producing some amazing music on his journey through life

Hermosas palabras ....saludos desde Argentina...
What a magical team they made. Absolutely fantastic 👍🏆🇬🇧🎸🎤. Rest now Ronnie, we still love you. 🇬🇧
Ronnie Lane lived in Texas for years and played music in the Texas area.
This song is both soothing and heartbreaking at the same time.
I'll state the obvious - taken far, far too soon. ❤
Dear Ronnie:
Thanks for the beautiful song to celebrate with.
Signed,
A Fellow April Fool...
newly discovered for me. an absolute gem. Im also an april fool here. ill be celebrating to this on the 1st april as well. cheers!
Great musician and song writer, always been highly underrated.
Oh! was he one of the small afces??
@@jameswitham2141 Yeah, he was.
@@jameswitham2141 Yes, and he co-wrote most everything they did with Steve Marriott. This early experience made him a hell of a songwriter in his later years.
@@jameswitham2141 He was indeed, great band.
@@seancurran6727 Still to day, wherever I travel I ikeep an eye out for a roadsign saying Marriott Lane. If i ever see one its coming home with me...
Happy Birthday you April Fool! We miss you!
Genius, no wonder so many famous musicians got their Inspiration from him
One of my favorite artists ! Great singer songwriter ! Great voice, very soulful !!
Great song makes me remember my favourite part of life goes on lucky enough to hear from them
Nobody could invite you into a song like Ronnie
3/31/23 Crank it up! RIP Ronnie & Dave Markee 🙏
It's too early in the morning, and I am too sad right now to hear this. But it WILL get better. And then I'll come back here and cry my eyes out with happiness that Ronnie existed, if only for a little while...
One of my top ten albums. Great songs and arrangements.
good taste my friend..a true gem..
we used to listen to this album on vinyl back in old New Jersey...still holds up.
incredibly underrated.
April Fool and Annie were great contributions to an under appreciated album.
Ronnie Lane is there anything else to say? One of my favorite song writers truly a treasure that should never be forgotten. One could argue that RS was not the magic it was Ronnie Lane and Ronnie Wood.
No arguement for me RL was the top man
I 💯 agree
Don't forget Mac and Kenney, Rod just leached off the talent of others and produced nothing but shite after working with those boys
SO Bitter Sweet how such a talent got SO screwed by SO many and died SO unrewarded and unrecognized for the GREAT he was...IS...GOD Bless and Rest your Soul Ronnie!!!
One of the best albums ever.
I love it since it came out!!!
In my walkman, later in my mp3-player, now in my smartphone....
Every day...🎵🎶💞🥀👍🔝✴❣
Ronnie Lane was such a beautiful man. Loved Pete’s 1st album. The Who Came First. Delightful songs, some with Ronnie. They were fun.
I wonder if they knew how timeless and brilliant this music was and would be.
What a Beautiful gentle Man !
I love Ronnie!
I love rough mix!
Happy Birthday Ronnie!!!🎂🎂🎂
Ronnie you are still missed !
My love happy birthday !!!
Miss you so ....
Always on my mind and in my heart💓
☮🙏💜
Such a great lp. One of my record store guys said if i didnt like it i dont really like music. Lol. Picked up the remaster to add to my og. Rip
I love the half cadence ending! What a great talent!

What a lost GEM!
So sad
its just a Nice song boys and girls
Hauntology is strong with this one.
Clapton on dobro.
Confirmed! www.ronnielane.com/pete-townshend-and-ronnie-lane-rough-mix-album-1977.html
Cool
I would love to see Clapton do more dobro work
Dobro is played by Eric Clapton!
I wonder what Bob Dylan thought of this song, and whether he might do a cover version of it.
Wondering the name and where the pub is that the coach drove past at the beginning of the video.
Tony Hom Maybe go looking on the Ronnie Lane website in the information section?

Roger Palmer I would hope that Mr. Clapton would buy it. Or Sir Stewart.
Eric clapton on lead?
the two Ronnies, couldn’t make it up.
why is the sound quality so poor?
A Rod Stewart clone !
