Default Unsung Heroes

Every great band has an unsung hero.
Witness George Harrison in the Beatles (Not recognised until very late in their collective career)
Charlie Watts in the Stones (Ditto)
John Paul Jones In Led Zep (Possibly to this day)
Ronnie Lane in The Faces/Small Faces.
In fact , in the case of the late great Ronnie, I`d go so far as to point out that he wrote "Itchycoo Park" single handedly, was involved in the writing of "All or Nothing" and "Tin Soldier" for the Smalls and was involved with the writing of the Faces best tracks (Witness "Ohh La La ".Reportedly, Rod Stewart refused to sing it, so it was left to The Ronnies, Wood and Lane to get it on vinyl.)
Was a very decent bass player and pour moi (like George and Bonham) is sadly missed.
