The saddest words of all time. He was way ahead of his time. Man/Woman being ahead of their time will always fail, only being remembered, time doesn't do justice.
If anyone’s ever heard, the small faces version of you need love, that is exactly where Robert plant got his vocal styling from on their whole Lotta love which is basically ripped off from the Muddy Waters song.
Steve Marriot was so great you can't but feel a little sorry for any musician or performer who appeared on the same stage as him however talented they were. Absolutely no one did it like Steve, and the really sad thing is, no one ever will.
Singer, composer, guitarist, great blues harmonica...whooo Sings like a black bluesman He got the deep south & the mississippi flows in his veins Best blues singer Britain has produced, as much as i love Paul rogers, i gota say Steve just pips him at the post...Lordy that voice
I've been having the same conversation with my best friend about how great Steve is. For a while I was crazy about Paul but I finally realized that Steve was better than anybody. I don't know how he got all that soulful volume out & stayed on key but it was some spectacular singing. Great guitarist and very unique harmonica player. He was truly appreciated in Great Britain 🇬🇧 but not quite as much in the US 🇺🇸. 👍☮️🌞🎸🎤🌟💕
@@secretdaisy6484 Hey, thanks for replying I think the origional version of this song was sung by Doctor John the Night Tripper But, i could be wrong, i know it came out in the early 1970s & because i listened to alot of west coast bands ( USA) like Camel, Its a Beautiful Day, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Captain Beefheart, The flying Burrito Brothers & Doctor John. Im not American btw, i live in the far north of England near the Scottish Borders but in 1970, 72, 73 lived in London where there were some amazing bands out then & slowly turned my musical taste to Led Zepp, P Floyd, Ten Years After, Sabbath & D Purple but my favourite being Free with Paul Rodgers & Kossoff. I saw them play live many times. I doubt a pass a day without listening to Free & Humble Pie with Stevie M. Did u know the girl singing with him on his Black Coffee track was the brilliant PP Arnold ? Think steve & PP had a thing going. Anyway its great to hear from you & others who appreciate when music was the very best ever.
I was there. Sitting on the fence right in front of the stage. This was in Belgium; Jazz Bilzen 1969. Right before this performance Peter Frampton was sitting on that same fence as well, I sat next to him. 💜 He wore purple velvet pants.
Awesome. I saw Marriot with the Small Faces several times in the 60s. Go back and listen to some of their stuff - one of the best live British bands of all time.
@@Rocketman10057 Perhaps not under rated by those of us who know and love them. However, I am finding more and more that most younger people have simply never heard of them. We need to educate them!
Underrated? Not by those who know this band. Less Known is a better way to put it. Guess you had to live in this era to realize so. Welcome newcomers!!☮️
Keep coming back to this again and again. Damn, the talent on that stage is remarkable with arguably the most gifted frontman there has ever been. Watch and marvel at the gift to music that was Steve Marriott
If I remember correctly, it was the Second Coming to a Warehouse that Steve played with this song, it was in this set they played this Holy Song, knocked the shit out of the Crowd, wasn't expecting to hear that from Humble Pie, jűs sāyīn !😎✌😎!
I saw them at the Marquee in London in 1970, the raw power and musicianship of that band was incredible, they seriously delivered. I was there with two famous jazz musicians who didn't care about rock, but they were blown away after that concert. Next day they bought some LPs of the Pie ...
One of the true original 'super groups'. This band will always be a joy to watch. There is something truly honest about them. Never again will that era be repeated.
Ahhhh but it is being repeated! Thats the great thing there IS a massive 70s revival happening! Have you TRIED to get their vinyl??? its like Rocking horse shit!!! going up and up in price.I think its fantastic! My brother says ive lost the plot,lovin it as we were children of the 70s.Free is another band whos vinyl is soaring in price. Must go now bidding on an afghan!!!! lmao!
Hey Tony, I just posted a comment and then saw yours. I too was in Hyde Park in 1971. For me it was a "happening". Epic. I was a HP and GFR nut at the time.
Me too! I was 14, they completely blew Grand Funk Railroad off stage and I'm completely with you, never seen a more joyously powerful gig since. I have my fingers crossed that when we finally get out of here we get a shot on the jukebox of time and can go back there and do it again - just the 70's mind, everything after that you can keep. I'll happily check out aged 23 and forego 40 years of hard work, largely crap music and general disappointment!)
I was in Hyde Park too, they stole the show from GFR. Later that same day I went to the Polytechnic in London to see Traffic, where they recorded part of Welcome to the Canteen in front of no more than 100 people, all sitting on the floor. Those were the days....
omg Steve Marriott was the most dynamic front man on the planet at the time. Like an insane knome,he pranced about the stage..and when he sang..incredibly soulful. One hardly notices Peter Frampton...he is there in the wings,playing his totally unique sounds...God i miss those guys...CCRivers
“ More electric than anybody you’ve ever met. Funniest guy I’ve ever met, sharpest guy I’ve ever met, cleverest guy I’ve ever met. ” - Ian "Mac" McLagan (Small Faces/Faces) on Steve Marriott
According to Ronnie Wood in his autobiography "Ronnie", Marriott was Richards' first choice to replace Mick Taylor in '75. But Jagger didn't want anything to do with Marriott. Can't blame him, really. Marriott's natural talent was scary to many of his contemporaries. And Jagger wasn't going to let anyone steal his thunder.
My late brother-in-law Randy, who co-founded FM Productions with his brother and legendary concert promoter Bill Graham of San Francisco, said that Humble Pie would stretch out this song to 30 or 40 minutes in the early days! I have been told that the version on the classic live Humble Pie LP Rockin The Fillmore (East) was edited down to 23 1/2 minutes, was originally MUCH longer. A real crowd pleaser of a song.
I was lucky enough to see "The Frampton Era" Humble Pie (the best line-up in my opinion) numerous times in the NYC area from 1968-71, including several times at the Fillmore East, where they played so often that they were almost like the house band. I am convinced that I am the person you can hear yelling "Gilded Splinters" on the PERFORMANCE album. On their best nights no one rocked harder. It was a shame to watch them and Marriot spiral downward into cocaine and alcohol oblivion. R.I.P. Steve and Greg.
I saw them at Pirates World in Florida around '70 or '71. They opened for Ten Years After, who they just blew away. Highest energy rock show I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot.
@@stella3265 Little Walter is out there on his own, Daniel, as a blues harp player. But Steve wasn't even known for this, yet he's put on a tremendous example of how good he was all round here. What a star!
Such a shame we don't get to see this line up from later USA tours. They could get an audience near riot then hushed up again. Still miss Marriot so much, glad to see this at least. Maybe more lost footage out there I hope...
I've always wished I could be as downright cool as Steve Marriott, but then I ask myself the question: Would I still be alive? The man was almost too cool to be true. Anyway, thanks for this video; it makes a good counterpoint to the version on Rockin' The Fillmore. It's always good to explore the roots of a masterpiece.
Brilliant live, i saw them twice. Marriott was incredible, best white soul singer coming out of England at the time, bar none.Him and Pete were great together. I saw somewhere that Frampton was trying to reunite them when Steve died. Too bad.
Seen humble pie a couple times, the last time was st a festival at the Poconos in 72 ,about 200,000 people great show great party. It was called concert 10, one of the best and last music festivals cept the next year walkinsgleen with the almond Brothers which I stupidly missed,ahhh. Had to come back cause I didn't realize this was posted 13yrs ago, dam ytube got anything recent to recommend
Excellent! I saw Humble Pie in 1971, Hyde Park, London. Grand Funk Railroad headlined. It was epic. This one of my favourite tunes - I'm glad to have stumbled across it. Cheers.
wow Martin!!! Hadnt realised the funk headlined! Must have been where the link with the pie was cos they opened for em at shea! As you were there and i was 6 PLEASE tell me what it was like,did the Funk get a good reception? I am a MASSIVE Grand Funk fan and still scratching my head as to why they never took off here, Mark Farner has soo much soul and funk in his body i swear him and stevie black men in white mens bodies,the moves the riffs the soul......Having to save pennies to try and see Mark in the states as he doesnt tour here.
@@Mff48 Hey Catherine! I was a huge Grand Funk fan, had all their albums. Nowadays, my son plays GFR from time to time, so that's cool. I was 14 at the time and travelled 250 miles with a friend to attend. GFR had a reputation at the time for being the loudest rock and roll band in the world. The way I saw it, most of the crowd seemed to be really nice hippies - all good! The whole day was fantastic and finished with my favourite band blasting out numbers I knew backwards. I was in a sort of heaven. An epic day. Sometimes, I think bands have their place in time. For instance, I love Eminem's early stuff but I don't think I'd go see him perform nowadays. Same with GFR. That was then and this is now. Anyway, if you are determined, I'm sure you'll find a way. Good luck and thanks for your comment.
One of the greatest bands of ALL time. RIP little Stevie Marriott.. Now if you don't already have it buy Rockin at the Fillmore. Vinyl is best. Crank it.. get loose, enjoy!
God I get sad when I start watching these. :( Man we lost a great one in Steve Marriott when we lost him in 1991. :( A very young Peter Frampton on the far left in the white shirt on the black Les Paul. :)
Saw Steve at the Scala Ballroom Dartford when he was playing harmonica and fronting Steve Marriott's Moments. You could tell he was a star in the making. Played a wonderful version of Cyril Davies' Countryline Special !
Although the Fillmore version is great, this one is my favorite. More harp and different lyrics, plus it's SO wonderful to see them live. Read in Jerry Shirley's book, that this particular festival was a real nightmare , pouring rain, fog, cold, instruments out of tune, people leaving early. Out of all that, they pulled a fabulous performance. Steve oozes soul.
I'd forgotten what a great blues harp Steve could play! Those opening shots of Greg Ridley on bass show a remarkable resemblance to Alexander Gundinov who was in Witness & the first Die Hard movie. Sadly he died very young from abusing alcohol.
I saw them at Pocono raceway in 72 , wiki has it wrong , they were on after Edgar Winter and the white trash at about 11pm . They were awesome ! The track had a 360 degree array of speakers and Steve Marriot was throwing his vocals in different directions as if he had a 4 channel joystick .

OYEEE, PURE SOUL. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND. 🙏 😎✌🏴
Steve Marriot not only had an extremely powerful singing voice he was always pitch perfect.
If anyone’s ever heard, the small faces version of you need love, that is exactly where Robert plant got his vocal styling from on their whole Lotta love which is basically ripped off from the Muddy Waters song.

Sings like a black bluesman
He got the deep south & the mississippi flows in his veins
Best blues singer Britain has produced, as much as i love Paul rogers, i gota say Steve just pips him at the post...Lordy that voice
I've been having the same conversation with my best friend about how great Steve is. For a while I was crazy about Paul but I finally realized that Steve was better than anybody.

Hey, thanks for replying
I think the origional version of this song was sung by
Doctor John the Night Tripper
But, i could be wrong, i know it came out in the early 1970s & because i listened to alot of west coast bands ( USA) like Camel,
Its a Beautiful Day, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Captain Beefheart, The flying Burrito Brothers & Doctor John.
Im not American btw, i live in the far north of England near the Scottish Borders but in 1970, 72, 73 lived in London where there were some amazing bands out then & slowly turned my musical taste to Led Zepp, P Floyd, Ten Years After, Sabbath & D Purple but my favourite being Free with Paul Rodgers & Kossoff. I saw them play live many times.
I doubt a pass a day without listening to Free & Humble Pie with Stevie M.
Did u know the girl singing with him on his Black Coffee track was the brilliant PP Arnold ?
Think steve & PP had a thing going.
Anyway its great to hear from you & others who appreciate when music was the very best ever.
Sings like a Cockney Englishman. I never mistook him for black.
@@itallia666- yep...Dr. John did the original 😊

Sitting on the fence right in front of the stage.
This was in Belgium; Jazz Bilzen 1969.
Right before this performance Peter Frampton was sitting on that same fence as well, I sat next to him. 💜
He wore purple velvet pants.
Steve plays the harmonica as amazingly as he sings!! It's another 'voice' from within him!
Honesty
1969! What a time in music history. Such an explosion of artistic brilliance!
Awesome. I saw Marriot with the Small Faces several times in the 60s. Go back and listen to some of their stuff - one of the best live British bands of all time.
I 💯 agree
I was a child of them and why don't people appreciate Marriott and Frampton more?
They were all awesome. Greg Ridley is a major part of the band. Listen to the way he is the spine of this song
Humble Pie was really under-rated and Steve Marriott was just a major talent!
Not underrated at all great band and sold lots of albums and great in concert.i was 14 when this came out
@@markcooper9063 there seems to be a fad for saying things were underrated these days ,humble pie were anything but
@@Rocketman10057 Perhaps not under rated by those of us who know and love them. However, I am finding more and more that most younger people have simply never heard of them. We need to educate them!

How about the live show with his back-up women
Blessed are we who have partaken of the pie!!
Feedurehed -when I was in high school(68-72) I saw them perform in Chicago, if I remember, at the Electric Playground. I think in 69

Fantastic band and Steve Marriott was so unbelievably talented.
Stevie was THE man,it didmt matter who else he was playing with,he made any band he played with sound amazing.
Steve Marriot was just so bad ass!

rolling stones ceased to exist after 5 july 1969.
padraiggillon they auditioned him and Mick thought Marriott would upstage him in vocals cuz he could sing better than Mick lol
padraiggillon yes, Steve Marriott was a wonderful musician
I can see why Mick wouldn’t want Steve Marriott in the band. This guy’s phenomenal. I wish I had gotten in to him sooner.
WISH THIS BAND STILL ALIVE,THEY WAS BEST OF THE BEST!
The most original and outstanding band so far!!!
I can't stop watching this. When he does the kissy thing Ito the mic, I'm afraid I nearly lose control!!
i hear you modmutha!!! im the same when Farner does his stage strut!!!
Oh Steve,you were great. Went to this 'cause Dr John died....Just as good

and he was a child
I am sooo happy that this stuff is available here..... I really miss these perfomances.
This band to me, is the best British hard rock blues band ever. Marriot, Shirley, Ridley, Frampton Version.
At 3:21 Stevie sings "In my time of dying want know body to moan just my take body home"
I saw them at Pirates World in Florida around '70 or '71. They opened for Ten Years After, who they just blew away. Highest energy rock show I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot.

Out of all that, they pulled a fabulous performance. Steve oozes soul.
excellent, never seen
I say this because I love this music back then when I was 22 years old
Steve Marriott felt music like no one else...
I'd forgotten what a great blues harp Steve could play! Those opening shots of Greg Ridley on bass show a remarkable resemblance to Alexander Gundinov who was in Witness & the first Die Hard movie. Sadly he died very young from abusing alcohol.
The mighty pie,loved those guys,I feel blessed to have been alive in these times,,
30 days in the hole, was my go to song for a long time.
I saw them at Pocono raceway in 72 , wiki has it wrong , they were on after Edgar Winter and the white trash at about 11pm . They were awesome ! The track had a 360 degree array of speakers and Steve Marriot was throwing his vocals in different directions as if he had a 4 channel joystick .
What a kickass tune from the "Rockin' the Fillmore" set.
