"Afterglow of Your Love" is a song by the English rock group Small Faces. The song was originally simply titled "Afterglow" on the album on which it first appeared in May 1968, Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake. Without authorisation from the band, the song was released as a single in 1969 and reached no. 36 on the UK Singles Chart.
Small Faces were an English British beat band formed in 1965 [1] by Steve Marriott, Ronnie Lane, Kenney Jones, and Jimmy Winston (who was soon replaced by Ian McLagan).Heavily influenced by American rhythm and blues, they later evolved into a psychedelic act before disbanding in 1969.
As a compromise, the new line-up's first album in the UK was credited as First Step by the Faces, while in the US the same album was released as First Step by Small Faces. [53] The album was only a mild commercial success, and the record companies perceived no further need to market this new line-up as the "Small Faces".
Side one of the album showcases a variety of musical styles. The opening title track is an instrumental re-working of "I've Got Mine", a failed single from 1965.This recording uses a Hammond Organ treated with wah-wah pedal and orchestral flourishes from a string section led by David McCallum Senior (the father of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. star David McCallum.) [citation needed].
The Autumn Stone album was released by Immediate Records founder Andrew Loog Oldham in November 1969, more than six months after the band had officially announced their break up, and three months after Steve Marriott's new band Humble Pie had released their own debut LP.

Tin Soldier reached number nine in the UK Singles Chart and remains one of Small Faces' best known songs. Talking about the song, and the influence of his wife Jenny, Marriott stated: The meaning of the song is about getting into somebody's mind—not their body. It refers to a girl I used to talk to all the time and she really gave me a buzz.
