Free Music Review: One Of Humble Pie's Best Albums
Hit: 5 Stars

The owner of a small local CD store recently told me that 1970s music has become extremely popular among the current 15 - 25 year old age demographic. Bands like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd are, according to this CD store owner, outselling all contemporary bands among this age demographic. This has in turn led these people to explore other lesser known 1970s bands.

This is an excellent development. So much of today's music is utter crap that simply cannot match the quality of a lot of the 70s material. (I admit a bias here; I grew up in the 70s.)

In the interest of helping today's 15 - 25 year olds explore lesser known 1970s bands, I'll recommend this album as one which should be included in any respectable collection of 1970s music.

Many of you will have heard of Peter Frampton, whose Frampton Comes Alive album was one of the top selling records of the 1970s. You may not know that Frampton was a member of Humble Pie before he embarked on his solo career and this album is Humble Pie's best release during the period Frampton was in the lineup. Frampton's composition "Shine On" is one the album's highlights.

The other major figure in Humble Pie was vocalist and guitarist Steve Marriott, whose later career did not reach the heights his talents deserved. His earlier work in the Small Faces and his later work in the post Frampton Humble Pie are also worth checking out.

Bottom line: this is an overlooked album that deserves your attention. For those of you who are discovering some of the lesser known 1970s bands for the first time, this is an album that is well worth a listen.
