Mozart
Miles Davis

Answer
Steve Marriott, lead singer of the Small Faces, cites Miles Davis as a major influence. He was especially taken with Davis's use of horns and rhythm section, which he felt created a more "live" sound than the typical rock band of the time. Marriott also admired Davis's willingness to experiment with new sounds and styles, and he tried to incorporate some of that same spirit into his own music.
