Any Humble Pie fans out there?
I was listening to my "Rockin' The Fillmore" LP and was reminded of how good of a band they were. Sure, the music is ham-fisted and overly self-indulgent at times (hey, it was the 70's), but they sure knew how to rock! Peter Frampton never played better guitar than when he was in Humble Pie. I also really like "Rock On" (especially side one). "Smokin'" was recorded after Frampton left the band for a solo career, but it is a great album too. I also have a live CD of this later line up that SMOKES! Steve Marriot's between song "talk-singing" is highly irritating, but the music is first rate.
