This new remastered edition corrects those errors and includes some acoustic mixes, an unreleased track and some newly mixed versions. This limited edition version is only available through the official Small Faces Web site.

After the success of Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake, the Small Faces were working on ideas for a follow-up album. This was provisionally called 1862 after the stone above a door at Marriott's new home, Beehive Cottage, where he was looking to install a recording studio. Although this was never released, tracks surfaced on the posthumous The Autumn Stone alongside singles from both Decca and Immediate recordings and live tracks from a Newcastle City Hall concert in November 1968. Incidentally, Ronnie Lane had written a song for 1862 called The Creation which later became Stone and Evolution in the 1970s.

1862 information and photograph from John Hellier.

Please note there is a slightly different CD version with additional tracks.
