New Authorised Biography out 18 March 2021
All or Nothing, Simon Spence’s oral history biography, is drawn from over 125 interviews with those who knew Marriott intimately: his wives, children, bandmates and closest friends, managers, record producers, record label bosses and his fellow musicians. Included are scores of people who have never told their story before. From his child star beginnings to his battles with drug addiction and untimely death in a housefire, All or Nothing is a visceral and unflinching account of Steve Marriott’s extraordinary and often troubling life.

My Mind’s Eye
I'm seeking everyday Looking at the sky Ever wondering why I dream my dream's away And I'm living for today In my mind's eye Things are clearer than before Showing me the way Asking me to stay I'll never close the door To all this things and more In my mind's eye Everybody I know Says I've changed Laughing behind their hands I think they're strange People running everywhere Running through my life I couldn't give a care Because I'd rather see All that I can see In my mind's eye In my mind's eye In my mind's eye
