You know that Led Zeppelin, Ozzy, and many other bands requested Steve to be their front man before any of the greats you know today right? He's literally a god dude.
The 'Blackberry' on the far right is the late Clydie King who is credited with being 'Background Vocals' for over 480 recorded songs... Trust me, you've heard her somewhere before.
When I first watched this I thought Marriott wasn't singing live because usually the old grey whistle test would have the band perform the song a number of times before the show aired and take the best vocal performance and instrument performance and put it together and make the band go on air and lip sync the performance so the Vocals are real but but taken from the best live Vocals earlier in the day so I don't think Marriott is singing live here
Steve Marriott, child actor, accomplished musician and just pure talent. So many bands, so many songs and with Humble Pie pure genius. RIP Steve. You always made me 'Inclined To Get High'.
I'm a professional touring frontman myself and this is the reason why Steve Marriott was the gold standard for me. He is my favorite Rock vocalist of all-time and quite frankly a great Blues and Soul vocalist as well.
Steve was not your average lead guitar / lead vocalist. He had theatrical training as a child and thru his teenage years. even did some broadway as a young teen. His Father was an accomplished pianist and performer. In 1960, when he was 13 he won an audition to be one of several Artful Dodgers in the West End production of ‘Oliver’. Perhaps inevitably, Marriott developed his first addiction - to applause - here and for the rest of his life he would love striding the stage and working audiences. Marriott looked to be shaping up as a young thespian, but it was singing rather than acting that determined what he wanted to do and, in 1963, he released his first record.. He worked hard to get where he got very quickly as a young man.
I feel sorry for this generation who have nothing to offer or compère with Stevie and the rest of the 60’s, 70’s. The atmosphere was simply electric, and those fantastic Backing Singers, where have they gone ?
It's not a question of black and white with Marriott, comparisons like that are pointless. He was so good, maybe one of the best of any colour or creed because 1, he was naturally gifted with an unbelievable voice and 2, when he sang he loved every second of it and meant it 100% every time. He was a genuine impish soul man.
Those controlled and varied screams at 1:20, 2:47 and 3:09 are just outstanding. What a voice. What a talent. What an ultimately tragic tale of a man who should be lauded as Britain's most iconic voice, but instead faded into obscurity and passed away in the shadows. A crying shame.
Yes saw this big singer play for 30 people In a place i my hometown kobenhagen It seems i was pne of the only people Me and About ten ohters And steve was fucked up Understanly but nobody could take away the power He had .i was amased He played wiht his trio packet of tree?
You, I and people coming here to see and hear that incredibly talented and missed man is a true tribute to Marriott. As long as we speak his name, remember him, listen to him, share his music and the story of his life, no matter how tragic, Steve will not be forgotten...
Wore out all my Humble Pie albums here back in my High School days too. Still listening to them a lot as well as Marriott's older band Small Faces but on CD and mp3 now. Love it! 😎👍
Jailed at home...In this sad hours from the center of European Coronavirus Pandemia: Milan, Lombardy, Italy ...a lot of death all around us. In lockdown for over a month. We're afraid and disconsolate. This tune is paradisiac. May this song accompany the souls of the departured people. God bless every country of the world.
Probably the greatest singer of all time, whats so great about him is that if you said somebody was better than him 9 times out of 10 they would've been influenced by him and tell you Steve is better. Robert Plant and Steve Perry were both huge fans of Steve Marriott
@@TheGoldenriff this story's getting way out of hand Don Arden told Jimmy Page not to speak to Steve Marriott or else Mick Jagger wasn't about to share the spotlight with Steve Marriott and does anyone think he would sing with Ozzy LOL it's a good story and it's probably going to get even better cheers
@@richardhincemon9423 Watching this clip I think Marriott influenced Rod Stewart somewhat. Two lead vocalists in the Stones? Never going to happen. However, Frampton may have been a suitable replacement for Mick Taylor.
@@geoffpoole483 Steve Marriott was a huge influence on both Robert Plant and Rod Stewart. Rod Stewart replaced Steve Marriott in the small faces which became the faces. Peter Frampton had already left humble pie when this video was made and started his own successful solo career with the band Frampton's camel. Jeff Beck and Steve Marriott were both offered Mick Taylor's spot in the Rolling Stones but turned them down. Peter Frampton would have never fit into the Rolling Stones and made the right decision to start his own solo career.
Humble Pie is one of my all favorite rock bands. This evening, a lady friend was talking with me about her preference of tea over black coffee. This Humble Pie song immediately came to mind. My friend was just a small child when Black Coffee was released nearly 50 years ago and had never heard of Humble Pie. However, I shared the song with her and she was impressed by the band and the powerful/soulful vocals of Stevie Marriot (RIP).
Old Grey Whistle Test , one of the best things to come out of the BBC . Got to see so many Live performances and get to listen to so much music . This being one of the best
I saw Humble Pie in Atlanta when they performed this song as a new song. I was blown away by Marriott. Here's this little dude with a giant guitar as his voice bounced around the room. We were up near the stage so you could see the amps bounce up & down. My friends with me were fellow band mates who played for our high school dances. One of my band mates pointed out the jumping amps saying that they must have them on full volume, something unheard of for us. While each one of my friends focused on the person playing their respective instrument, I focused on Marriott's incredible ability to project his voice without effort. His legs were ridged but dancing, his arms were flaying but still playing, his face was all contorted as he belted out each word or grunt, yet he managed to keep eye contact with people in the audience. The passion in that voice and that he never once was out of key, was amazing. His whole body became part of each song he sang. I keep looking for live performances on youtube that would match what I saw that night in 1972 or 73. But so far I have not found anything even close to that magical performance. This was also before Frampton left the band. Frampton got to do a solo and he got a raving reception. I've been to many concerts, but that one left a lasting impression.
Thank you Patti, I would have given anything to see the Pie live. If you haven't already, you should check out Steve in the Small Faces, especially the early R&B songs. Here is a link to one live video Lots of SF videos on RUclips, mostly mimed. back in those days. ruclips.net/video/wtEtNaUkezU/видео.html Here is a quote I read that reminds me a little of what you describe: "Their singer, Steve Marriott looked like a teddy bear and showed a fine shamelessness, screaming himself purple and hurling himself at the mike as if he meant to swallow it. He sang well, wild and strangled. Bopping up and back, his knees clamped tight and his eyes screwed up, he'd be berserk and he'd be good. He had everything it took." Amen RIP Stevie.
The stories goes as they wanted Peter Frampton to be the front man but the suggestion was made for Peter to sit in front of the stage while Steve singing played d became the lead it was so awesome I could never get enough of that man's voice and he could jump on that guitar he might not have been a virtual like Peter but Steve was awesome when I want to leave the cares of the days troubles and I crank it up and listen to some humble pie it makes the day much better at least it takes to worries of the world off your mind for a little while I guess that this means I'm getting old because I think they were one of the greatest bands of their time and my generation as a kid Thank you Mama for turning me on to humble pie and Steve Marriott
This is the ultimate version of the song. Tina is great but this rock's it a bit more. I love Steve Marriott. It's been 25 years since his passing. What a huge loss.
You get these legendary "front men", like Robert Plant, James Brown, Joe Cocker, Jim Morrison, Jon Fogherty, Wilson Pickett, Freddie Mercury, Little Richard, Prince, etc, etc......then you have dudes like "Steve Marriott". 😎
I liked your comment. But still have to slap you for not mentioning one of the most epic rock / blues singers of all time. Peter Green. Marriott And Green were in an epic class. Of the others you mentions I put Fogherty and Brown on the next class below. With Brown easily becoming of and or are, next level as well.
I like when marriot sings "you see my skin is white, but my soul is black" and one of the girls gives a look like "hey boy" haha, love humble pie so much, RIP steve.
I'm sure that all 3 would agree that your list is a tad 'white' and 'male'? Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday etc etc. By the way, shout outs for Frank Sinatra, Freddie Mercury and don't forget Elvis, he had a great voice, too. Edit - and the amazing Lennon & McCartney. Both would be in my top 10 favourite list, too.
I am a die hard Steve Marriott fan. When the rocking in the Fillmore was out All day fully blast at the window and fick them Brave neighbors. MY SOUL STAYS WITH YOU.SADLY A LOT NOW GOT CUT BY U-TUBE SAD I will not give you upStevie!!! LOVE KARIN
Oh yeah ... I was mistaken in my post ... I meant Greg !!!! To tell you the true...that nite we were talking a friend & I ....about Glen Schwartz , the Cleveland legend from the James Gang ....
So glad I got to see Steve & Co. live +/- 50 years ago. I kinda remember some of us dummies thought Rod was Steve when the band changed to Faces. Humble Pie was THE party band. I forget who opened for them...I got stoned & I missed it! Peace Jeff T PGH PA USA
Wow that hit the spot! Timeless classic here from Humble Pie and the Blackberries. They nailed the vocals perfectly. Love that fat warm Les Paul sound, and with a slide too!
Marriot's vocals are insanely good. Sad that while this showcases that maybe better than anything i've seen, you really have to listen hard to hear just how amazing it is due to the fact it's buried buy the guitars. IMO he is probably the greatest rock/blues singer that ever lived. Tone, feel, control, he had it all in spades.
Greatest rock/soul vocalist to come out of the UK ever bar none. Just a shame he's not still here. RIP Stevie your voice will live forever and continue to give me goosebumps x
The great Steve Marriott! I was browsing albums in WHSmith in 67 when I heard these 3 teenage girls raving about Steve. I casually mentioned that Steve Marriott was a good mate of mine, he’d been in my class at school. We chatted for about 10 minutes before I confessed that every word I said was true but it wasn’t the same Steve Marriott! Oh dear! Two of them stormed off but one of them did laugh and smile at me before she followed her friends.
Hits me in all my lil’ sweet spots, the back up singers are on fire Omg,,,😅 👏 👏 love everything here ~ Greg Ridleys groovy bass and of course Steves soulful voice!
Brilliant no doubt. Wicked and wonderful, fabulous voice Bad decisions. Smiling thinking about him and how his story could have been so different. Sometimes when I hear Robert Plant I think of Steve Marriott. Way it is I suppose.
Truly his style was one of a F ING kind plus how he and the black berries would interreact! Perfect ! !! At a time that you very rarely saw such a thing.quite unheard of!
Oh, the night before Thanksgiving 2023, and I’m so glad I found this video. I have always loved Humble Pie, ..and Steve..one of the greatest rock vocalist of my time. Yes, it’s a great thought, him playing with Led Zeppelin instead of Plant. I mean, Steve, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham….oh yeah!! Still love Humble Pie! It just never gets old.
Discovered this via last night's marathon three hour Old Grey Whistle Test on BBC Four. Never heard the song before and had heard of Steve Marriott but not heard very much of his music before. This song is amazing. What a voice. Brilliant!

Steve Marriott might be one of the most underrated front men ever. Great voice and no slouch with the axe.
Underrated? No, he's not. Everybody knows except those that never heard him shout.
agree
You know that Led Zeppelin, Ozzy, and many other bands requested Steve to be their front man before any of the greats you know today right? He's literally a god dude.
@Archer Roberto script kiddie....
I suspect more people did not hear him than did.
The interaction between Marriott and The Blackberries (the woman vocalists) is fantastic! God Bless The Old Grey Whistle Test!
I have the feeling he was sleeping with at least one of them, based on their interactions alone, lol

Makes me move
What other white man could sing and blend with the black sisters like Steve? Perfect combo!👍🥁🎸❤️

Bad decisions. Smiling thinking about him and how his story could have been so different.
Sometimes when I hear Robert Plant I think of Steve Marriott. Way it is I suppose.
Truly his style was one of a F ING kind plus how he and the black berries would interreact! Perfect ! !! At a time that you very rarely saw such a thing.quite unheard of!
We really lost a great great who was needed at this time and especially today. So much love for all peps
Oh, the night before Thanksgiving 2023, and I’m so glad I found this video. I have always loved Humble Pie, ..and Steve..one of the greatest rock vocalist of my time. Yes, it’s a great thought, him playing with Led Zeppelin instead of Plant. I mean, Steve, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham….oh yeah!! Still love Humble Pie! It just never gets old.
The pure joy on his face !!!
Have always loved Steve Marriots soulful voice ❤
nost underrated british musician/singer ever
I still find myself having that Black coffee tune poppin in my head!!! 😂
STEVE WAS THE FIRST
FOREVER IN MY HEART.RIP ROCKIN IN HEAVEN. BET
This has been one of the best groups ever!!!
I love everything about this! 💓💓💓💓
Greats of all time
"My skin is white but my soul is black." I had scarlet fever for two weeks my senior year in high school in 1973. Humble Pie Live got me threw it.
Stunning! 👏👏👏✨🌷💖
Best performance 👏 I ever saw . Hyde Park free concert , heads hands and feet, humble pie . And grand funk railroad . What a day.
His voice❤
Discovered this via last night's marathon three hour Old Grey Whistle Test on BBC Four. Never heard the song before and had heard of Steve Marriott but not heard very much of his music before. This song is amazing. What a voice. Brilliant!
Listen to early Small Faces, highly recommended
Find Shakey Jake on RUclips and be just as amazed by this band, pure class,
Sad Bag of Shakey Jake...my favorite HP track. Perfect for Steve.
RIP Steve
GOD HAS ALL OF THE BEST MUSICIANS
The best voice ever. Who can compete with ?
Steve was great one of the best
