Ronnie Lane biography
Tributes
The Ocean Colour Scene song "Travellers Tune" on their 1997 studio album
Marchin' Already was inspired by and written in the memory of Ronnie Lane, a strong influence on the group, which appeared at the tribute concert for Ronnie Lane. Likewise Lane had been such a source of inspiration to the members of Poi Dog Pondering that they created a tribute page for him and in 1995 band member Susan Voelz covered Lane's song, "Glad and Sorry" on her 1995 album,
Summer Crashing, "out of her respect and affection for Ronnie Lane". In 2000, Paul Weller recorded "He's the Keeper", a song dedicated to Lane's memory. An album of live and in-studio recordings from Lane's Austin days was later culled, and released as
Live in Austin. Plaistow (his birthplace in East London) named a street "Ronnie Lane" after him in 2001. In January 2006 BBC Four broadcast an extensive documentary about Lane,
The Passing Show that had been in preparation since 2000 and aired vintage concerts by Faces and Slim Chance. In October 2006 the documentary was also shown on BBC Two.
