I met Steve once in N.Y.C. at a place called Privates.Humble Pie were opening for Aerosmith.Thats when Joe Perry was in hiatus from the band.I passed Steve in the front of the stage before they played.I stopped him and greeted him.He treated me like an lifelong friend.He invited me to the Pies dressing room to smoke a part of a left over joint that he showed me.I said sure.I told him that about how much I had admired his work..Well I got bombed out of my mind and he asked me if I wanted to meet Aerosmith. I saw them down in the other dressing room.They weren't doing so well at that time,so I declined. I'll never forget that experience, Like I said He was so humble and kind.He treated me like I was the most important person there.He'll always be in my heart.What a great talent and generous human being..And great set they played.And what a voice!!!..Thank you forver my brother Steve Marriott...You're always in my prayers...
That is a incredible true story. I can feel it in every word you said thank you for sharing. It just makes me love Humble Pie and Steve married Moore. I never got that close but I don't know if it's a good having a lets up on it, taking it back. Rude and a Humble Pie at the warehouse in New Orleans. And what a point of an eye. I said I'm going to see Humble Pie. Some of my friends were in shock.I was not
I am truly a fan of Marriott, not to praise him into the heavens, im don't tend to do that, we're all still just human beings. But he was something special. The feeling his voice, his playing and his stature gives me is almost unmatchable. Only a few can really achieve that intense respect in me. Ok, im out.
Yes 1973 I was 15 years old we went to Gerts department store to get the tickets. Man.what a rush 😊😊🥴 everyone was stoned. But no problem with the police. I know because my father was there what a surprise when I ran into him. Like out of that, what was the odds
The GREATEST singer ever, no fucking contest. I was lucky enough to see the Small Faces, Humble Pie, the reformed Small Faces and Steve's Packet of Three. I met him at the Bridge House, Canning Town, London when Packet of Three played there. No rock star bullshit, just sitting at the bar telling stories and chatting to everyone. He was just a fucking great bloke and a vastly underrated musician. I will never see or hear another singer like him. When he let it go he could blow the windows out and when he took it down it was like a beautiful whisper. No other singer I've ever seen could do what he did. Thanks for the music and the memories Steve.
Beautifully put, especially your observation about his voice. That was what was so great about him - his various voices. And his songwriting. And his musicianship. And his stage presence. And all of them fabulous. I just finished replying to someone who called him a "one trick pony" and compared him unfavourably to Jagger! Can you believe it?! I'm so jealous of you! Fancy seeing the great man live and meeting him. Lucky you!
Well put mate I also met him 3 times gigs in Manchester great bloke really modest said he preferred these smaller gig venues he knew he would get his money, also got to say we all know what a great vocalist he was but probably don't know what a top guitarist he was watching live in London with pkt off three on RUclips.,
The most under rated “rock band” of all time...Steve Marriott was one of the best vocalists ever...as was Paul Rodgers...I’m an old man of 65 and feel blessed that I was born in 1955... love to all and take care 😷 xx
Today 1/30/21 would be Steve's 74th birthday. Coming up in April will be 30 years since his tragic death. What a loss to all of us. God bless Steve's soul and Rest in Peace.
Jesus! How that massive, banshee wail comes from that little body is nearly impossible to explain. He never seemed to lose steam, just as strong at the end of the show as he was at the start. What a singer, maybe the perfect combination of rock/blues/soul. It's sad he isn't better remembered, but those of us who know can just smile when people debate who is the greatest singer in rock. We know the answer: Steve Marriott.
Sure, but Humble Pie were one of those great 70s bands that could murder live but they didn't write anthems like a lot of their peers. Their strongest songwriter left before he hit his stride, if Frampton had stuck around in the band they might have had just enough radio hits to keep them from being a "hidden gem" of sorts. Free is another great band that doesn't get enough love, but "All Right Now" kept them at least on classic rock radio enough for people to be aware of them. When you mention Humble Pie you always just have to say "Frampton was in it before he went solo". I could listen to Humble Pie and Steve Marriott all day (I have) but none of their songs have the immediacy or songwriting that made bands like Zep, Sabbath, The Who, and even Deep Purple still reference points today. I always attribute it to being so authentically bluesy that they just didn't care to focus on pop sensibilities (I don't mean that in a demeaning way because there was some great pop then) or single material. The simplest way to put it is that Humble Pie is an amazing band to get baked and get lost in a sea of ripping blues rock, but if I'm going to cover one of their songs it would probably just be doing a shittier version of one of their superior covers. On the flip side, I could slam out Communication Breakdown or Highway Star at a gig and while it may not compare to those bands either, it at least checks the "people know this" box while still being a rock song I love and don't mind playing🤷🏻♂️
Trust me, if you ever saw them live (I did in the summer of 1970 in London) you didn't under them anything. They just blew you away, Those four left everyone breathless. Great musicians!
@@tejas3818 bad management held his career back but he was still never underrated, people could actually argue that he was actually overrated earlier in his career?! I wouldn’t say that but there’s people who will.
He is incredible. That voice, his style, his energy, the ease with which he does what he does... Robert plant was good, but Steve was great. Many tried to emulate him, his style, but all fell short, as Steves flow was the original, no-one did or ever will touch him.
BEST. UNDERRATED KICK ASS ROCK BAND EVER IN THE UNIVERSE!!! THESE GUYS, ESPECIALLY STEVE MARIOTT AND PETER FRAMPTON, WERE MAGICAL TOGETHER!!! ROCK ON FOR ETERNITY GUYS!!!
You got that right!!! Steve Marriott and Humble Pie were fantastic!!! I was so lucky to see them in 1971 in Pittsburgh, what a great concert. RIP Steve
@@markventura4253 I saw them there also, supporting Alice Cooper at Three Rivers! Went to see ole Stevie, couldn't give a hand about Alice. Eternally grateful that I did. He was mesmerizing!
@@MrTheabsolute69 I saw Alice Cooper with Emerson Lake & Palmer at old Stanley theater in Pittsburgh in late 60's. Cooper was well received in the smaller venue with his electric chair & such.
I got to buy Steve Marriott a Beer at a Bar called "The Cellar" in Fayetteville, NC. 1983. 2 weeks later I was drinking one with Artymus Pyle at the same place. Great memories, Great music, Great people.
Somebody once said that Steve Marriott could sing the phone book and it would sound great. I think they were right. What's really cool is Humble Pie are playing their hearts out for what appears to be a local TV show somewhere.... It's awesome. Thanks for posting this.
It’s a cryin shame that there are no videos of a full concert from this band . I saw them in 1973 and the burned the house down for two plus hours. Full tilt start to finish. Incomparable rock band.
@@birage9885 Note I said I went to the band live concert in 72" in Seattle... Tickets were $4 dollars... Which is also what we paid to see Led Zeppelin. ( I paid $135 dollars to see Page & Plant in 95") Crazy how things change.
I also saw them in 73 in Phoenix. The lineup was Boz Skaggs, Foghat and Humble Pie. One of the all time best concerts I've ever seen. It's a crying shame Steve Marriott died so young.
Nobody put out as much electricity as this man, Steve Marriott, always, alla time. This is as restrained than I ever imagined he could be ... Just ... that ENERGY he put out + all that singing talent. God I miss being able to go see Humble Pie.
The best white soul singer ever. Poor Steve had those demons. What he left us, well there is nothing negative I can say. Don Arden I know you are getting what you deserve.
Steve Marriott was and will always be Britains greatest bluesman. No contest. Met him on my 19th birthday in 1987 and a couple more times before he was cruelly taken from us. The lungs on the man, he could finish a joint in one toke, NICE as the Small Faces used to say.
I laugh out loud as I realize how very very good he is, it's almost like he's preaching to us and we're hang on for the next bellowing of lyrics! Sooooooo Gooooood!
Really sad that Steve lost the microphone audio at the end because he was really putting his all into the song at that point. I saw Humble Pie perform live twice back during this time period. They had so much talent and energy. And of course everyone knows what Frampton went on to do. It’s such a tragedy that rock and roll lost Steve so early. I sometimes think of what music icons like Joplin, Hendrix and Morrison would have created through the years. Oh btw…I was also blessed to see Jimi H play live also two months before he died. Atlanta Pop Festival II in July 1970. Unforgettable ! 🎸🎸🎸
My very favorite band when I was getting into rock more and more ,,I was just a teenager,,and they were fantastic,,one band that truly showed Peter Framptons true talent
It was either 1970 perhaps or 1971 .. myself and 8 others drove from Memphis down to New Orleans in a bucket seat Camaro.. best time ever .. I was 17 or 18 heheheh can’t remember..
For me Steve is one of the best blues rock voices. Talk about oozing soul! Peter felt it too and I feel was a much cleaner player. Steve has that edgier raw feel that kicks Pie into soul blues rock depth reached by few.
I heard Jimmy Page wanted him for Zeppelin but he turned down the gig ..... So did another ....I forget his name ..... Then Jimmy was told about Plant singing up North and went to see him and found his man
Wow what a long way from his Artful Dodger start but this was Steve's golden period his Live act was second to none ..Rock On up there in Heaven sadly missya so much
@@ericaward702 No, definitely not. I'm a big fan of Clem's work on Smokin', Eat It & Thunderbox. I feel like the Rockin' the Fillmore shows kind of defined Humble Pie, so that's my reference point for the band
My first big concert of 10,000 screaming bic-lighting fans!! I was lucky to see them perform LIVE when I was 16 in 1973 at Cobo Arena in Detroit. 3 more X after that. Blew me away all 4X!!!! Epic rock concerts like that don't exist anymore.
I'm so glad I got to see these guys in the early 70s. Marriott's voice still gives me goosebumps. One of the greatest rock singers ever. He sang with such passion.
I saw them put on an awesome show at the Pocono raceway in 1972 . There were speakers ringing the raceway and the sound was unbelievable. They were one of many bands that day into the night and onto the next morning , with Rod Stewart and the faces landing by helicopter about 5am in a fog and playing until sunrise . My favorite concert of all time.
Steve Marriott was just a monster talent …Frampton with the phoenix lespaul …must have just gotten it..I saw him with an sg custom white in a humble pie video..nice stuff thanks for these videos
Caramba Humble Pie una de las souper bandas de blues y rock duro con mas derrotas que gloria la voz magistral del desaparecido Steve Marriott fue un legado inmortal en esta historia profunda bendito donde quieras que estés Steve en el cielo o en el infierno aqui te queremos todos
...Growing up in the 60s and 70s, I had an elementary school classmate whose cousin was from England. We talked about rugby and football. He then talked about Small Faces, Humble Pie; and this lead singer. Now I know why!
For goodness sake, it's the SMALL Faces that Steve was in. I wish people would stop making this mistake! It drives me nuts. That hack Rod Stewart and Ron Wood didn't have a hope of replacing Steve's talent. Even the presence of Ian, Ronnie and Kenney wasn't enough.
@@richardgreen9393 In the same vein as Hendrix blew Clapton away. When he played Clapton's jaws promptly dropped to the floor followed by his guitar as he walked out totally demoralized.
@@bluemarlin2u ....Ha Ha....Roadie Mick. ALL he seems to do is RUIN girls lives! When poor L'wren died, Mick just went out and laid the 1st girl who came along. Ruined her life, as she was 1/2 Mick's daughters age, and all her hopes and dreams of 'Ballet' were destroyed, because of Mick's ego!
Every time I hear Steve and the boys I begin to think I'm 15 and it's 1969 and I just wanna dance like crazy. Man those boys really get me movin n' a groovin!
“Tom Mix stand in” I had to Google Tom Mix: He was Hollywood's first Western star and helped define the genre as it emerged in the early days of the cinema.
Amazing, just a magical performance! What an all round great performer. The entire band is impressive. I've followed from the beginning until today. Always surprised when I find someone who's not heard of Humble Pie. ❤️✌️
@@roybowers4315 Wait. There's a *stage musical* about Steve Mariott?! Where do I beg a recording of such a thing, assuming this to be an old post. Historically curious.
Hi..Just one of my favorites ..as good as they all are Frampton really shines on this,,,compared to what others were playing at the time...Thanks...Dave
I often think who would be the one face that could represent the whole of rock and roll. I can't get away from thinking Steve Marriott would be perfect. He had amazing talent and lived it throughout his history, warts and all with real pinnacles. He faced the worst of the music business along his journey and kept rocking no matter what the business threw at him. He reached some mighty highs and played in two amazing bands that deserved to be in the league of The Rolling Stones. While he kept getting knocked back he kept coming. That's a part of rock and roll few persevere in. I'll say the man makes his own case to be the proper face of rock and roll.
WOW, very well said. You have captured his life and character in just a few sentences. Most who knew him said he always moved forward, loved life, and didn't complain too much. I read an interview from 1985 where the journalist said at first he felt sorry for Steve, that such a star was now playing pubs, but after spending a few hours with him totally changed his mind, seeing that Steve was truly enjoying himself, just playing his music for the joy of it, not missing the fame and all the hassles that went with it. My rock and roll hero. Bless his soul...
“ stand-in for Dirk Bogarde” Sir Dirk Bogarde was initially a matinée idol, He later acted in art house films, evolving from "heartthrob to icon of edginess". Sounds like exactly what Steve was trying to do. Move past his teen idol, heartthrob image. “Tom Mix stand in” He was Hollywood's first Western star and helped define the genre as it emerged in the early days of the cinema.
another man whom .. well, there shall never ever be another at all like him. incredibly gifted at so many things. and man could he ever sing!! all we can do kis listen to his old tracks; any we find. (I adore one which I think is called Black Coffee I remember correctly; vid of it being recorded in studio).
Here is a rare treat ruclips.net/video/RcppZbspzGY/видео.html Steve singing Black Coffee with Clem on guitar in 1989 for a Nescafe commercial. His voice is more mature and grittier, but still unbelievable.
I met Steve once in N.Y.C. at a place called Privates.Humble Pie were opening for Aerosmith.Thats when Joe Perry was in hiatus from the band.I passed Steve in the front of the stage before they played.I stopped him and greeted him.He treated me like an lifelong friend.He invited me to the Pies dressing room to smoke a part of a left over joint that he showed me.I said sure.I told him that about how much I had admired his work..Well I got bombed out of my mind and he asked me if I wanted to meet Aerosmith.

And feel yor pain 😎

65 is the new 45.
That vibe, vibrato in his voice, what a singer, harmonica player, guitar player. I need a fresh dose of black coffee.

I heard Jimmy Page wanted him for Zeppelin but he turned down the gig ..... So did another ....I forget his name ..... Then Jimmy was told about Plant singing up North and went to see him and found his man
Totally to different singers Steve & Plant
Fortunately Steve left us all a great legacy of superb music!
i was super disappointed in his solo album "Marriott". Most of the songs are weak and the production is awful.
Greatest white blues singer ever…
Steve Marriott's voice still drives me crazy. So unique!!
Cheryl Mardon it’s funny how Robert Plant copied him..
@@no1nestandsalone387 He didnt even come close, lol
Love that laugh from Dirk Bogarde!
What a voice , the power leaves you speechless
BLOWS MANY AWAY... TODAY.... NEVER BE ANOTHER HUMBLE PIE W/STEVE .... LOVE HIS TRIP .... WHAT A VOICE
what a vocalist and not bad on the guitar either ! glad i saw the Pie in their prime - thank you for posting
Steve was incredible. Powerful performance, as always!!!! Humble Pie ROCKED and RULED!!!!!
Wow what a long way from his Artful Dodger start but this was Steve's golden period his Live act was second to none ..Rock On up there in Heaven sadly missya so much
Für mich der beste Rock und bluessänger der damaligen Zeit. Er mußte viel zu früh von uns GEHEN.RIP STEVIE. ICH HÖRE DIE MUSIK IMMER NOCH.
This was the classic lineup and from what I've heard they were insanely good live
Clem Clemson wasn’t chopped liver either
@@ericaward702 No, definitely not. I'm a big fan of Clem's work on Smokin', Eat It & Thunderbox. I feel like the Rockin' the Fillmore shows kind of defined Humble Pie, so that's my reference point for the band
My first big concert of 10,000 screaming bic-lighting fans!!
I was lucky to see them perform LIVE when I was 16 in 1973 at Cobo Arena in Detroit. 3 more X after that. Blew me away all 4X!!!!
Epic rock concerts like that don't exist anymore.
This is rock and roll The real Deal
Magic chemistry talent .
Great band, Steve Marriott's voice and delivery, just outstanding, what a loss.
I'm so glad I got to see these guys in the early 70s. Marriott's voice still gives me goosebumps. One of the greatest rock singers ever. He sang with such passion.
I love watchin this video... Black coffee too... he is fierce how he performs, and so natural too.
I think Jagger called it right; SM would have been a nightmare. I love how Pie were all so in the zone. That performance was other-worldly.
I saw them put on an awesome show at the Pocono raceway in 1972 . There were speakers ringing the raceway and the sound was unbelievable. They were one of many bands that day into the night and onto the next morning , with Rod Stewart and the faces landing by helicopter about 5am in a fog and playing until sunrise . My favorite concert of all time.
Steve Marriott was just a monster talent …Frampton with the phoenix lespaul …must have just gotten it..I saw him with an sg custom white in a humble pie video..nice stuff thanks for these videos
Caramba Humble Pie una de las souper bandas de blues y rock duro con mas derrotas que gloria la voz magistral del desaparecido Steve Marriott fue un legado inmortal en esta historia profunda bendito donde quieras que estés Steve en el cielo o en el infierno aqui te queremos todos
God I LOVE this band!!!! So original!!! So under rated!!!!!! 40% Better all around from the Stones.
FRICKIN UNBELIEVABLE HOW GREAT THIS PERFORMANCE IS!!! STEVE WAS THE REAL DEAL!! ALL OF THEM ARE!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
"And you are"" ?
" Pete Frampton"!
"And what do you play"?
" Guitar"!
Classic😂
Love it. "what do you play Pete?" He more than plays, he owns it.
...Growing up in the 60s and 70s, I had an elementary school classmate whose cousin was from England. We talked about rugby and football. He then talked about Small Faces, Humble Pie; and this lead singer. Now I know why!
Steve is always unforgettable 😳😱🤩👍🏼🎸🇫🇷🇨🇭😊🌺🎼
I saw them in 72 and they kicked ass!
I thought I had every video and wandered upon this. Thank you for sharing. Marriott no one can ever replace him.
Big influence on Robert Plant.I like Led Zeppelin but back in the day i think the Pie were the better live band.
Devere Agard No doubt...I saw both of them live and Zeppelin couldn’t come close to upstaging Pie
Actually ,when he left the faces, it took two to replace him,Ron Wood and Rod Stewart
For goodness sake, it's the SMALL Faces that Steve was in. I wish people would stop making this mistake! It drives me nuts. That hack Rod Stewart and Ron Wood didn't have a hope of replacing Steve's talent. Even the presence of Ian, Ronnie and Kenney wasn't enough.
You can hear why Mic didn't want him to be a member of the Stones.
socalcde he’s too good
No shit he blows Jagger away
Mick'd be reduced to a roadie in no time carrying Steve's guitar. LOL.😁
@@richardgreen9393 In the same vein as Hendrix blew Clapton away. When he played Clapton's jaws promptly dropped to the floor followed by his guitar as he walked out totally demoralized.
@@bluemarlin2u ....Ha Ha....Roadie Mick. ALL he seems to do is RUIN girls lives! When poor L'wren died, Mick just went out and laid the 1st girl who came along. Ruined her life, as she was 1/2 Mick's daughters age, and all her hopes and dreams of 'Ballet' were destroyed, because of Mick's ego!
Every time I hear Steve and the boys I begin to think I'm 15 and it's 1969 and I just wanna dance like crazy. Man those boys really get me movin n' a groovin!
Just an amazing voice..I spent a bit of time with Gregg in Spain just before he died..nice bloke everyone was shocked we thought he just had flu..
Such an authentic performance by the Pie! Had the pleasure to meet Steve when he played pubs in Melbourne 1983.
This is incredible....What a voice!
One of the best bands for raw rock and roll.
They had been what I call a Rock Band from tip to toe ! Period.
“Tom Mix stand in”
I had to Google Tom Mix:
He was Hollywood's first Western star and helped define the genre as it emerged in the early days of the cinema.
Amazing, just a magical performance! What an all round great performer. The entire band is impressive. I've followed from the beginning until today. Always surprised when I find someone who's not heard of Humble Pie. ❤️✌️
**FOR ME, IT WAS "ALWAYS" STEVE MARRIOTT!! REGARDLESS WITH "WHAT" BAND HE WAS WITH!! PERIOD!! 100%
Absolutely and most emphatically !!👍
Margaret, he's just ..I know!
too true darling
if you get the chance to see the stage musical about him GO
@@roybowers4315 Wait. There's a *stage musical* about Steve Mariott?! Where do I beg a recording of such a thing, assuming this to be an old post. Historically curious.
Great dynamics.
Playing album Smokin at concert volume got me evicted in 1977.
Hi..Just one of my favorites ..as good as they all are Frampton really shines on this,,,compared to what others were playing at the time...Thanks...Dave
Steve Marriott ... the Rock & Roll animal no 1 ..Steve R.I.P
Frampton so young ! always he was a great musician.
Previously in The Herd, when he must have been about 10 LOL!
I'd forgotten just how loud they played, so good!!
That voice is incredible the greatest rock and roll singer ever was
I often think who would be the one face that could represent the whole of rock and roll. I can't get away from thinking Steve Marriott would be perfect. He had amazing talent and lived it throughout his history, warts and all with real pinnacles. He faced the worst of the music business along his journey and kept rocking no matter what the business threw at him. He reached some mighty highs and played in two amazing bands that deserved to be in the league of The Rolling Stones. While he kept getting knocked back he kept coming. That's a part of rock and roll few persevere in. I'll say the man makes his own case to be the proper face of rock and roll.
Deep joy of a songload in the eardroves......think you're right mate 👍
his own demons helped to keep him down,,and the whole child star thing oftens ends bad.
WOW, very well said. You have captured his life and character in just a few sentences. Most who knew him said he always moved forward, loved life, and didn't complain too much. I read an interview from 1985 where the journalist said at first he felt sorry for Steve, that such a star was now playing pubs, but after spending a few hours with him totally changed his mind, seeing that Steve was truly enjoying himself, just playing his music for the joy of it, not missing the fame and all the hassles that went with it. My rock and roll hero. Bless his soul...
It's like a revival meeting! Preach it!!
Damn!!!! Steve Marriot is the best rock vocalist of all time. Goosebumps.
And what a great companion with Peter Frampton, what an awesome guitarplayer!! Love him and his lines full of inspiration, so talented...
Жила в СССР, и не знала , что .существует такая музыка. Сейчас ,слушаю и наслаждаюсь. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yep pretty cool stuff.
thank you for posting, for the next part of this year, please keep posting his videos from whenever, don't think we can get enough
“ stand-in for Dirk Bogarde”
Sir Dirk Bogarde was
initially a matinée idol, He later acted in art house films, evolving from
"heartthrob to icon of edginess".
Sounds like exactly what Steve was trying to do. Move past his teen idol, heartthrob image.
“Tom Mix stand in”
He was Hollywood's first Western star and helped define the genre as it emerged in the early days of the cinema.
That boy had some pipes!
lets hope there's more of this show available somewhere.Rock on Steve!!
another man whom .. well, there shall never ever be another at all like him.
incredibly gifted at so many things. and man could he ever sing!!
all we can do kis listen to his old tracks; any we find. (I adore one which I think is called Black Coffee I remember correctly; vid of it being recorded in studio).
Hope you got to hear the even better version of Black coffee that they did for The Old Grey Whistle Test, it's here on YT
Black Coffee, fuck yeah! I start my morning with that tune!
Here is a rare treat ruclips.net/video/RcppZbspzGY/видео.html Steve singing Black Coffee with Clem on guitar in 1989 for a Nescafe commercial. His voice is more mature and grittier, but still unbelievable.
