Ian McLagan R.I.P. Ians Hammond organ playing on this track is a standout performance and rarely does this track not form part of a Bonanza & Son DJset. Grow Your Own was way ahead of its time for 1966 being that it is so raucous and having been the B-side of the far more radio friendly Sha-La-La-La-Lee which reached number 3 in the Uk Singles chart in January of that year. A statement on McLagan’s website reads as follows: “It is with great sadness and eternal admiration that we report the passing of rock and roll icon Ian McLagan. Ian was a member of the ‘Small Faces’ and ‘Faces’ and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012. He died today, December 3, 2014, surrounded by family and friends in his adopted hometown of Austin, TX, due to complications from a stroke suffered the previous day. His manager and bandmate Ken Kushnick says, ‘He was a beloved friend to so many people and a true rock n roll spirit. His persona and gift of song impacted the music across oceans and generations.” youtu.be/ZuoqJONrCts
