I've known that for decades, and I've seen them twice, but I never knew Steve could also play the guitar THIS WELL.... ua-cam.com/video/XMCgqjYA424/v-deo.html
Humble Pie were the first Supergroup. Peter Frampton had just left the Herd and Steve Marriott had left the Small Faces. I have seen them twice and their mixture of Blues and rock was right up my street. RIP Steve Marriott a true legend.
Cream were before Humble Pie! That doesn’t take anything away from either band - both were amazing live and had profound influences on the development of rock out of pop. Frampton’s earlier band - The Herd - were pure pop, but he grew into a fantastic hard rocking lead guitarist. Steve Mariott was out of this world as the main vocalist - but the three guitarists shared vocals on many tracks, adding to the power of the group on stage and on vinyl.
I too was lucky enough to have seen them twice. Got to hang out and do drinking with Steve. Fantastic person and performer. Been my favorite band my whole life. I’m only 60 but my favorite from childhood. RIP Steve
the late great Steve Marriott, that man was one of the greatest forces in R&R. to see his swag it's a must to check Humble Pies "Black Coffee" live in studio with the Blackberries. that performance alone deserves to be in the R&R HOF! great stuff your warning to Robert Plant is not wrong IMO Stevie was better........... let the haters hate!!!
Then watch him lay down some of the tastiest blues licks you've ever heard on guitar. I saw him twice in the '70s, but he didn't play like this. ua-cam.com/video/XMCgqjYA424/v-deo.html
Peter Frampton was the lead guitarist. Had a great solo career. Loved Humble Pie, other suggestions, stone cold fever, walk on guilded splinters check them out.❤️✌️😃
My understanding is that after Peter Frampton left Humble Pie, HP never performed Gilded Splinters again. I think Steve needed a collaborative partner to arrange, rehearse, write a bit of new material, jam with. Just like with Ronnie Lane before him. Steve was a better all around musician when he had that collaborative vibe, so to speak, with someone he respected.
@@bethh.9647 I am the greatest fan of Peter Frampton (one of my top 3 favorite guitarists along with Jeff Beck and Larry Carlton), but Humble Pie's album Smokin' is incredible without Frampton. I read that Frampton actually said that it is the best Humble Pie album. Not sure if Marriott needed to collaborate, or if he needed to be let loose. 30 Days in the Hole and Hot 'N' Nasty are among my favorite Humble Pie songs.
@@winslow551 Maybe he did need to be let loose, creatively. Maybe Ronnie Lane, Peter F even producer Glyn John's while working with Small Faces helped to keep Steve in check, as calm and focused as they could. Steve was a creative, driven force, no doubt! I continue to be amazed and mesmerized by him but cochise and alcohol really ravaged him. So sad. If you have not already read these books, please try to get them Best Seat in the House by Jerry Shirley and All or Nothing by Simon Spence. Heartbreaking. RIP Steve.
Peter Frampton was a mere 21 at the time of this recording. He truly is one of the greatest guitar players ever. So many people know of Peter Frampton from Frampton Comes Alive in 1976. His first four solo albums are great. Give them all a listen, Wind Of Change, Frampton's Camel, Somethin's Happening and Frampton. I saw him countless times, but the one that sticks out is in 1974 at the Schafer Music Festival in Central was one of the best concerts I have ever witnessed. Oh by the way it was 2 dollars to get in.
Humble pie is amazing. One must listen to and react to BLACK COFFEE. Also a must listen to is 30 DAYS IN THE HOLE. I’m a guitarist and these are must listen to
I had the very good fortune to see Humble Pie at the University of Akron during the summer of '72 (they opened for Black Sabbath) and again in Cleveland a year later (Black Oak Arkansas opened that show). Pie was an awesome live show !!!
Steve Marriott was one the hardest rocking voices of the 70's and so was Humble Pie. This whole album is superb. Now you're ready for Gilded Splinters.👍
@@billhawkins1236 absolutely. Early Pie was as trippy progressive as they come. But I also like the kickass hard rock Pie after Frampton left and Clem Clemson joined. Some real tasty stuff on "Smokin'".
😉 believe me. Black Coffee was in the running of song choices. I see you got a ❤ from them so I think they figured it out. The live video version will make you blush the way Steve and the backup singers interact. 🔥
Others on here are recommending the Black Coffee performance from the OGWT, which is amazing, but their performance of Shakey Jake on Beat Club is sooper-badass too. Check out the Small Faces, too, for more Steve Marriott in action. Dude is fun to watch. Lotta soul in a little package.
Just caught a break and checked it out. Thanks guys. I loved your reaction. Before AC/DC. Before Lynyrd Skynyrd there was Humble Pie. Yes Sifa, Humble Pie at Filmore East spent many a mile north east south west mid-west. Great road music but too much will wear ya out. jk Humble Pie(this version)are: Steve Marriott-vocals, guitar Peter Frampton-Lead guitar, vocals Greg Ridley-Bass Jerry Shirley-drums All the leads were Peter Frampton. Greg Ridley(RIP)is in my opinion one of the greatest Rock Bass players there ever was. Steve Marriot(RIP)is in my opinion within the top 3 Rock vocalist of all time. He was a force of nature on stage and that band put together the most kick-a rock music ever made. This is just a taste of how good they were. Glad you enjoyed the number. ;) P.S. When Frampton came "Alive"in 1976 every Pie head laughed. He was Alive and Well LONG before 1976.
@@SightAfterDark I'll be 70 in September Was an absolute Pie freak!! Frampton turned my ears on guitar style, and up until that time, never heard a voice like Steve's. No weak links in that band either, Jerry's drumming was fantastic, and Greg's voice and bass playing was deep and dominating. I get a rush every time I hear their music that had me on cloud nine back in the 70s.
Mariott was in the Small Faces in the 60s and was a big influence on Plant. check out the Small Faces version of the blues song You Need Love compared to Whole Lotta Love .also i believe this was written by the duo Ashford and Simpson
Ahhhh. College memories from my dorm, smoking and playing this song and 30 Days in the Hole over and over again. Great song. Great album. Actually I did have a 74 Chevy Nova. Unfortunately our road trip was to Green Bay… 😊
Woo hoo! At one point in time Humble Pie was among my top 5 bands. The Fillmore East recordings are some of the best live recordings of any. They were considered one of the first "Super Groups" and were more or less fronted by the amazing Steve Marriott who came from the Small Faces and was considered for the lead vocalist for Led Zeppelin before Robert Plant and as a replacement for the Rolling Stone's Brian Jones. Next Humble Pie song should be Black Coffee for a different side of Steve and the band.
@@SightAfterDark Well, Now I am thinking I got the Led Zeppelin part wrong. I was thinking of another wild British singer Terry Reid, not Marriott (although I wouldn't doubt he was at least thought of, if only briefly) but I know the Stones story is true as Steve even rehearsed with the band.
@@toshibautoob Page wanted a Marriott like singer/performer. I don't know if he actually made an offer to him, but he wanted Marriott's vibe. And Plant was a Marriott groupie during the Small faces time, doing backstage chores for him.
Straight out of wikipedia. "I Don't Need No Doctor" is an R&B song written by Nick Ashford, Valerie Simpson, and Jo Armstead. First released by Nick Ashford on Verve in August 1966, it went nowhere. It was then picked up and recorded by Ray Charles and released in October 1966." They also, on this same album, do songs by Ida Cox, Willie Dixon, Dr. John, Muddy Waters and Ray Charles. The album I honed my air guitar skills on back when it first came out. For me a desert island disc.
Kickin' sh**! I remember, but it's been a looong while. I remembered somewhere hearing Marriot referred to as the guy singer sounding most like a Black woman in rockdom...or sumfin loik dat.
The drummer Jerry Shirley never gets any credit. He's a monster! I love Humble Pie and Frampton but the best Pie albums came after Frampton was replaced with Clem Clemson.
I won't argue with you on that. Smokin' is a tour de force of Hard Rock. But Pie with Peter wasn't Swiss Cheese either. Add Greg Ridley on Bass to that sound too.
I saw Humble Pie live in Las Vegas in 1972. Frampton was gone and Clem Clemson was on stage. It was the Smokin’ tour. It’s A Beautiful Day and Slade opened.
@@shyshift I saw them way after that as I'm a little younger. It was summer of 1980 and they opened for ZZ Top at the Allentown Fairgrounds. It was only Marriott and Shirley left but the voice was still there.
Steve Mariott (singer) & Peter Frampton were the two guitarists, don't know who did the solo. (English band) I know that Peter Frampton had a solo career in the mid 70s because my brother had some of his albums and was crazy about his music..
When the Rock lion roamed free and powerful. I've followed Steve Marriott since his days with The Small Faces. Peter Frampton at his best here. I met and talked with Jerry Shirley when he worked at a Cleveland (OH) radio station. That was a good long time ago. Thanks! -- A former resident of Brooklyn, NY.
Shout out to Ray Charles (correction Ashford and Simpson) for writing this song. I Walk on Gilded Splinters from this album is epic and absolutely mind blowing but it’s about 25 minutes so might require a group Patreon effort. Btw, I pulled up to Sifa in my AMC Pacer blasting this on 8 track and waved hello, but she was lost in the song. :).
@@OliverPeabody no prob. Totally agree about Guilded Splinters. Love early Pie. Frampton's unique guitar playing just put that band above other Rock bands. Steve was no slouch as were all the guys. Just a great talented Rock band
Their cover of Ray Charles' 'Hallelujah, I Love Her So' from the same album is also awesome!! Peter Frampton went on from Humble Pie to a hugely successful solo career. His 'Frampton Comes Alive' is one of the best selling albums of all time.
The first solo (and all the jazzy ones) was Peter Frampton. The vocalist was Steve Marriott, who was approached to be Led Zeppelin’s lead singer, but he had already formed Humble Pie. They found Robert Plant and went with him because he had a similar tone quality to Steve Marriott.
Actually it was Terry Reid. He suggested Page and Peter Grant go see these guys from Birmingham. Band of Joy also had a drummer named John Bonham. It was 1968. But Marriott and Frampton were already jamming and getting the band together.
Yeah, you should definitely know about Stevie Marriott and Peter Frampton! Marriott's former band The Small Faces had a bunch of people who went on to be luminaries. Small Faces doing and Marriott singing 'Every Little Bit Hurts" - find it for one deep cut bit of his amazing voice. That'll take ya other places too. Like Rod Stewart before Rod and so on. "It's All Too Beautiful". Of course Frampton had a great solo career with one of those records that made him a legend. Crazy though when he toured as guitarist for Bowie (again and again) no one seemed to notice. Super nice guy, still alive :) Got the treatment from FZ too when Frank saw his record 'I'm In You', hilariously. Arguably though, because Humble Pie did what they did - and LZ, Black Sabbath, others like AC/DC went on and did what they did - same sort of visceral teenage thumper music - -I love it just don't get around to that much anymore
Robert Plant didn't need to worry about Steve Marriott coming after him. Plant said in earlier interviews he wanted to be as good as Marriott was eventually. Plant used to follow him around in the mid 60s when SM played with the Small Faces.
Funny you mentioned Robert Plant, this singer (Steve Marriott) was 1st approached by Jimmy Page to join his new band called Led Zeppelin you might of heard of them
And later, Keith Richards wanted Stevie to join the Rolling Stones but Jagger vetoed it; not surprised really because he had so much charisma. Black Coffee from The Old Grey Whistle Test is so good, My skin is white but my soul is black...
they recorded three nights at the fillMore East. This is the best of the three nights. the lead guitar player went on to become teen heartthrob of the 70's, Peter Frampton.
Steve Marriott actually inspired Robert Plant in many ways , Front man for the OG Small Faces early rendition of whole lotta love , tin Soldier with PPArnold lending back up another banger. Sadly Steve Marriott passed away during a fire at his beloved cottage, Tragically bringing an early end to a diminutive Monster of a man ✌🏻 R.I.P
Would love to have been a sound guy at the the Fillmore East 1969-1971. Some of the best live albums recorded then: Hendrix Band of Gypsies, Humble Pie, Allman Brothers, Frank Zappa and the Mothers, Neil Young, Joe Cocker, Miles Davis
Alright this is my favorite band my whole life. So maybe I’m a little biased. But there are so many great songs. Listen to Eat it. Smokin. On to victory. All amazing.
Humble Pie was great!! Now you should check out Beth Hart "I Don't Need No Doctor" live at Paradiso. She does an amazing cover of this song as an encore at this concert. You'll love it! You won't be disappointed.
You think that's AC/DC. It isn't Peter but their cover of Eddie Cochran's C'mon Everybody off their Smokin lp 'will have your thinking it's the lads from downunder. Lynyrd Skynyrd is another I hear a lot in the later Pie with Clem Clemson. Try The Fixer.
Nice. Young people listening to The Pie. There is only one way this sounds how it does. Bloody loud as hell. Whole Lp is still amazing. Makes me want to listen to some Mountain, too.
This entire album is killer. I read once that Bill Graham of the Fillmore loved "The Pie" because they left it all on the stage. I sure wish I would have had a chance to see them. The long and live version of Road Runner is my favorite and may rock harder than this one. ua-cam.com/video/GlTqM0qec9U/v-deo.html
Steve was ahead of all the wailing singers. Plant, Bon Scott, all of them. Steve was the original, the prototype, if you will. It all came naturally to Steve. And people thinking he was 5'2" are being generous. Maybe. But he had that VOICE. Still, I appreciate Small Faces more. Before the ravaging of cocaine and alcohol consumed him and all managers ripped him off.
Steve Marriott was 5' 2" of three alarm California forest fire, a cat 5 tornado, and a 9.0 earthquake. He was full of enthusiasm.
Steve "BADASS" Marriott!!!!!!
No 1 comes close!!!!!
he was just magnificent.
You forgot the cat 5 hurricane! Saw them at the warehouse in New Orleans early 70's. One rockin' badazz band! 🥰✌
Yeah, all at once!!
One of the greatest live albums ever
I have always thought this and 'Ten Years After/Recorded Live' are tied for #1. I just can't decide...
@@vernonbird4590 theres far too many imo, id put 'Stop Making Sense' by talking heads in there too lol
В России познакомился в 9 лет
And "Rock N Roll Animal" (Lou Reed live).

I can't get enough Steve Marriott. One of my top 5 vocalists of all time!

This was recorded 3 or 4 months before Peter Frampton left the band, and exactly one month before Fillmore East closed.
Peter Frampton on lead guitar. Just a down and dirty rock band.
One of the last concerts at the Fillmore East.
That was Peter Frampton On guitar
The Funky Gnome, Steve Marriott… HUMBLE PIE kicks ass !!!
Robert Plant didn't need to worry about Steve Marriott coming after him. Plant said in earlier interviews he wanted to be as good as Marriott was eventually. Plant used to follow him around in the mid 60s when SM played with the Small Faces.
Thanks for the great info!
The Small Faces were huge in England and Europe in the mid to late 60's. Check out Tin Soldier written by S Marriott. Amazing track by the Small Faces
Got to do 30 days in the hole after this, to continue your Humble Pie dinner
According to Robert Plant Steve Marriott was a major influence.
So cool!
Peter Frampton was the one coming out of the left side of your headphones.
Amazing! Shoutout to Peter!
Funny you mentioned Robert Plant, this singer (Steve Marriott) was 1st approached by Jimmy Page to join his new band called Led Zeppelin you might of heard of them
ua-cam.com/video/37wQrNm-7No/v-deo.html never heard of em ;)
True story..........
And later, Keith Richards wanted Stevie to join the Rolling Stones but Jagger vetoed it; not surprised really because he had so much charisma. Black Coffee from The Old Grey Whistle Test is so good, My skin is white but my soul is black...
One of my absolute faves....👍
they recorded three nights at the fillMore East. This is the best of the three nights. the lead guitar player went on to become teen heartthrob of the 70's, Peter Frampton.
Nice, thanks Tony!
Steve Marriott actually inspired Robert Plant in many ways , Front man for the OG Small Faces early rendition of whole lotta love , tin Soldier with PPArnold lending back up another banger. Sadly Steve Marriott passed away during a fire at his beloved cottage, Tragically bringing an early end to a diminutive Monster of a man ✌🏻 R.I.P
Haven't heard this song in many years - thanks for bringing it back. Great band.
Thanks for watching!
Song for the crazy time we live in.
Lol right??
First saw them at Shea Stadium when they opened for Grand Funk Railroad. Great night, two great bands.
That sounds amazing!
Would love to have been a sound guy at the the Fillmore East 1969-1971. Some of the best live albums recorded then: Hendrix Band of Gypsies, Humble Pie, Allman Brothers, Frank Zappa and the Mothers, Neil Young, Joe Cocker, Miles Davis
I heard Beth Hart described as a cross between Tina Turner and Steve Marriott.
Love that!
8:06 - one of the greates moments of rock ever.
Robert Plant,was apparently a big fan of Marriott and followed his work in the early years.
Steve marriot is the artful dodger in oliver twist.
Don't each other need a slice of humble pie, life reset...
Alright this is my favorite band my whole life. So maybe I’m a little biased. But there are so many great songs. Listen to Eat it. Smokin. On to victory. All amazing.
Basic, hard core blood boilin', crotch thumpin' rock 'n' roll 🤘🤘🤘
Gotta love it!
Peter Frampton played the guitar solo.
Dans mes 10 lives préférés.
Peter Frampton at 17 years old playing lead.
Check out You Need Lovin' by The Small Faces. Same singer three years earlier.
Thank you God.
Great hard rocking version of a great song by the GREAT Ray Charles!
Thanks for the info!
Humble Pie was great!! Now you should check out Beth Hart "I Don't Need No Doctor" live at Paradiso. She does an amazing cover of this song as an encore at this concert. You'll love it! You won't be disappointed.
Cool, thanks Nancy!

Cool, thanks Nancy!
I don't know why I never noticed this before, but if you take out the extended vamp in the middle, it could be ACDC
You think that's AC/DC. It isn't Peter but their cover of Eddie Cochran's C'mon Everybody off their Smokin lp 'will have your thinking it's the lads from downunder. Lynyrd Skynyrd is another I hear a lot in the later Pie with Clem Clemson. Try The Fixer.
Absolutely!
Everybody wanted to sing like Steve Marriott!
Nice. Young people listening to The Pie. There is only one way this sounds how it does. Bloody loud as hell. Whole Lp is still amazing. Makes me want to listen to some Mountain, too.
Thanks for watching William!
Same lead vocalist as the Small Faces.... check out "Itchykoo Park by them.
Abosutely one-off the best bands.
This entire album is killer. I read once that Bill Graham of the Fillmore loved "The Pie" because they left it all on the stage. I sure wish I would have had a chance to see them. The long and live version of Road Runner is my favorite and may rock harder than this one. ua-cam.com/video/GlTqM0qec9U/v-deo.html
Thanks Robert!
Well, I gotta say, back in the day I took a Lotta Acid listening to this. now I take a Lotta Antacid...
☺️
lol, what's next, Zepher - Hard Chargin Woman?? man you had to dig deep for this. nice job
🙂
Frampton was alive before he came alive👍🏻😎
Robert admitted to copying Steve Marriott when he was a groupie of the Small Faces.
Cool info, thanks Cincy!
This is a very raw performance. Listen to Beth Hart's cover version from 2003. A unique American artist.She loves this band.
Straight ahead rock...Vocal is good..Elements of Bon Scott voice wise.
Definitely!
Steve was ahead of all the wailing singers. Plant, Bon Scott, all of them. Steve was the original, the prototype, if you will. It all came naturally to Steve. And people thinking he was 5'2" are being generous. Maybe. But he had that VOICE. Still, I appreciate Small Faces more. Before the ravaging of cocaine and alcohol consumed him and all managers ripped him off.
Humble Pie Stone Cold Fever is a better song. But Steve Marriott was an amazing vocalist both in The Small Faces and this band.
Written by Ashford and Simpson and made a hit by Ray Charles
