Yes, on the cover of "Town and country" there are pictures of Ridley & Frampton on one side and Marriott and Shirley on another. That is the way it is on my vinyl copy at least. Mine is a gatefold. "Town and Country" has one of their best songs, namely "Silver Tongue"
Hi Larry. Thanks for spotlighting Humble Pie. They are one of my all-time favorites. If you are interested, please read the book "steve Marriott; All Too Beautiful" by Paolo Hewitt and John Hellier I seen the third version of Humble Pie, with Bobby Trench on guitar and Anthony "Sooty" Jones on Bass, at Tucson, Arizona in 1980. They oprned for Frank marino and mahogany Rush and just blew Marino away. They couldn't follow the Pie. Steve Marriott passed away in a house fire in 1991.
studio albums ranked: 1. Rock On 2. Smokin' 3. As safe as yesterday is 4. Town & Country 5. Humble Pie 6. Eat it 7. Thunderbox 8. On to victory 9. Go for the throat There are more (at least one) post Marriot albums but I don't have them
Steve and Jerry were on the back cover of the vinyl. Steve in a tree and Jerry crouching down by a stream. Town on the front cover and country on the back.
I haven’t commented on any of your videos in a long time, but I couldn’t find anyone that had a video on that humble pie book which I recently ordered, some of the best content on TH-cam keep it up 👍
As a young teenager I absolutely loved I don't Need No Doctor by Humble Pie Larry and I saw them along with Black Sabbath at a festival at Varsity Stadium in Toronto,I actually preferred Humble Pie to Black Sabbath. Bob
I saw him with Clem Clemson, just after Frampton left, and all. Saw them three times at Winterland, they still touring up, and rocking a few more. There's got to be one of the best live albums ever
Nice review of one of my favorite hard rock bands of the 70's! On a level below Zep, Purple Sabbath and together with Heep, Nazareth, UFO... Fave albums: Smokin, Rock On and Fillmore albums
I used to see Humble Pie at the warehouse here in New Orleans. They were a great, fun live band. I bought that big box. I also bought the multi disc Rocking The Fillmore. I really enjoyed that one. Those were some serious hard rockin days.🤣😂
Also a comment on the boxset as I am watching. Agree with you Larry, its nicely done in general with photos/write up but I do wish that they would realise physical media collectors still always like to see the original album artwork properly reproduced.
Hi Larry the Smoking album is really a great one I have had that one from day one Rocking the Filmore I find the songs are great but way to long they should have had more songs but shorter ones.
After the first four with P.F. which are all great I am not interested. Even Rockin’ The Fillmore is just overrated. They just go on and on and on .. doing the same thing with Steve shouting away.
I have not seen the author Robert Day-Webb book yet, but I can tell you that if he wrote up their later albums in a positive light, it's because they were fine lps. Just because you were told that their later ones weren't as good as the others,especially not hearing them for yourself, it's not a good idea to believe it. Peter Frampton left because of lack of chemistry amidst Marriott, and he did go on to form his own group FRAMPTON'S CAMEL. Despite the inner conflicts that nearly every band goes through, Marriott did rejoin Humble Pie a few times,as well as putting out solo stuff. Their first 2 Official Bootleg series CD box sets as HUMBLE PIE are excellent,also.
@@LarryGravesCanadianStudmuffin When SPOOKY TOOTH released their lp Mirror,we just figured that it couldn't possibly be as good as their run on A&M records simply because Mike Harrison had left. Man,were we ever wrong. Gary Wright and Mick Jones (he of FOREIGNER) stepped up, and the whole group together excelled with an amazing album.
@@BigSky1 Yeah,those two weren't really what the band was renowned for. The heart and soul were gone, replaced by a harder edge Rock sound.Those were missing from the singing from Marriott as well, I thought.The infectious tone that made him the vocalist that he was before (all thru their run on A&M /Immediate) was reduced to just wailing,it seems.I don't want to say too much negative stuff because it was them that set the bar so high. I do stand behind their later 2 lps Larry mentioned, Thunderbox and Street Rats.Hopefully Larry will be able to listen to them in their entirety. Also,people don't know that drummer Jerry Shirley was just 17 yrs old when the group started.

Steve Marriott, in his prime, was a glorious singer and frontman.
He had his demons and I find it such a tragedy what happened to him.

great Video Larry
Love humble Pie that box set looks great
Stay Safe
Thanks, you too!
I have always been a fan of Steve Marriott, so I like the Small Faces and Humble Pie very much. Great rock music, many good memories.
Always interested when you talk about Humble Pie and the Small Faces!
Love These Boys!!!!!
They opened up for Grand Funk railroad, that Shea stadium, Grand Funk sold that ticket out quicker than the Beatles
Yes. I interviewed Mark Farner on my main channel. 🙂
Also a comment on the boxset as I am watching. Agree with you Larry, its nicely done in general with photos/write up but I do wish that they would realise physical media collectors still always like to see the original album artwork properly reproduced.
I agree, it is sick when you can display all of the albums next to eachother
They made it bigger in the U.S. than they ever did here in the U.K.
I thought Humble Pie was always good. I never bought any of their albums, my brother was the big fan .Nice video Larry.
I love that band!
Love the Pie!
Мы винил любим
Hi Larry the Smoking album is really a great one I have had that one from day one Rocking the Filmore I find the songs are great but way to long they should have had more songs but shorter ones.
I would love one one Paul McCartney
Anything with Frampton is great
Boogie Band
What about 'Street Rats'?
I never listen to it... no interest in it.
Since you asked for it: Bad video, Larry 😂
Humble Pie is great up to Smokin, Eat It isn't bad but the rest I don't care about a lot.
You’re lucky they didn’t include ‘On To Victory’ or ‘Go For The Throat’ Larry which are both dreadful.
After the first four with P.F. which are all great I am not interested. Even Rockin’ The Fillmore is just overrated. They just go on and on and on .. doing the same thing with Steve shouting away.

Despite the inner conflicts that nearly every band goes through,
Marriott did rejoin Humble Pie
a few times,as well as putting out

Their first 2 Official Bootleg series

are excellent,also.
I have heard select songs from later albums and I didn't care for them. I just haven't heard the full albums...

Go For The Throat and On To Victory are not good records. The band were long past their sell by date.
