I saw them live at Blaisdell Exhibition Hall in 1973. The exhibition hall was not enclosed or air-conditioned at the time, and It was packed like a can of sardines with hot, sweaty, rockin' bodies. The next day, the police department reported that their switchboard lit up like christmas trees. Across from the hall were of condominiums and other homes. They all complained about the "noise" from across the street. What a joyous "noise" it was! RIP Steve Marriott. Your music will live forever.
Even little kiddies who listen to "gangsta; rap" and "death metal" at full blast can't handle this album. My step-son could deal with Black sabbath and Led Zeppelin but not THE PIE!!!
I never saw these guys, but they are one of my favorites of all time. With Steve, Humble Pie had both soul and rock, which = energy. Who could not like them?
1person had to slap thier bare feet on the carpet. LMFAO! HARDWOOD FLOORS FTW8-D

When I was a kid in 1971-72 my band used to blast this tune so loud the bartender in a club we used to play used to call us The Big Wind!

OK, seriously: I could use a little more cowbell. But really. Not a joke this time. Actually wanting a little more cowbell. Not kidding.

You idiot, this isn't hippy music, this is real, hard rock. Now go back to listening to your Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga..
This is the best rock music era ever. Enough said.
