A fairly straightforward but intriguing documentary about one of the 60’s music scene’s most unpredictable figures, a man who walked away from fame and fortune with The Faces to plough his own unique, financially disastrous musical furrow. It’s mostly the usual stock footage and talking heads (Townshend, McLagan, Clappers), but at least the story is unfamiliar- Lane’s path was a strange and troubled one, with enough twists to keep it fascinating. It did, however, make me eager to move to a remote farm in Shropshire and record an album in a field.
