- ‘30 Days in the Hole’ From: ‘Smokin’’ (1972) Speaking of frequently covered songs, "30 Days in the Hole" ranks with Humble Pie’s most oft-revisited tracks since it was first unveiled as the second-side opener on 1972’s Smokin’ LP.
- ‘Stone Cold Fever’ From: ‘Rock On’ (1971) In a catalog filled to bursting with killer rough-and-tumble guitar riffs, "Stone Cold Fever" may just boast the greatest six-string kick in the teeth Humble Pie ever landed.
- ‘I Don’t Need No Doctor’ From: ‘Performance – Rocking the Fillmore’ (1971) Rock history isn’t exactly littered with cover versions that became more definitive than the originals (though Joe Cocker’s “With a Little Help From My Friends” comes to mind), but Humble Pie delivered scores of them.
- ‘Natural Born Bugie’ Single (1969) Humble Pie’s first single already offered a tantalizing taste of things to come, immediately showing the potential of this supergroup assembled from former members of the Small Faces (Marriott), the Herd (Frampton) and Spooky Tooth (Greg Ridley) – each of whom took a verse on this song.

When Humble Pie recorded a cover, they made it their own. Their version of Ike and Tina Turner’s “Black Coffee” took the basics of the original, shook them up, and refashioned them into a supremely tasty slice of Pie. Described by Society of Frockas ‘alive,’ ‘allegorical’ and ‘as hot as a fresh cup of morning brew,’ the song features one of the bes...
By 1971, Peter Frampton was ready to spread his wings. Humble Pie’s fourth album, “Rock On,” is the last to feature the original line up of the band, and the last opportunity to hear some of Frampton’s songwriting before he flew the nest. As Ultimate Classic Rock notes, in contrast to Marriott’s exuberant, hard-rocking blues, Frampton’s efforts wer...
By 1974, Humble Pie were still capable of making great music, but commercially, they’d started slipping further and further behind contemporaries like the Who and the Rolling Stones. A hastily put together album of mainly covers named after a 17th-century slang term for toilet wasn’t necessarily what the record label was hoping for, but that’s what...
Any questions over Steve Marriott’s status as one of the best blue-eyed soul singers of all time are laid to rest on “Up Our Sleeve.” A straight-up piece of hard rock, Marriott’s raspy vocals are devastating in their power. His guitar licks are none too shabby either, standing up nicely against Clem Clempson’s pulverizing riffs. It’s not subtle, bu...
By the time their self-titled third album was released in 1970, Humble Pie were moving away from the mellow sounds of their early days into hard rock territory. The album wasn’t faultless by any stretch of the imagination, but it had a couple of nuggets, including the epic, organ-heavy “Live With Me.” With a superb vocal from Peter Frampton and an ...
Peter Frampton’s departure from Humble Pie in 1971 didn’t signal the end of the band, either in terms of output or success. Their first outing after his departure came in the form of 1972’s “Smokin’,” a sensational album that quickly became their biggest selling album up to that point. With its combination of sizzling covers and fiery originals, it...
When Humble Pie first got together, they had no intention of being a singles band. But if a record label wants a single, a single is what they’re going to get. Despite pushback from Marriott (who, at the time at least, associated singles with screaming teens rather than serious music fans), the band dropped their first single in 1969. Timed between...
Cover versions are always tricky, with few ever quite managing to best the original. But occasionally, it happens, and in 1971, it happened for Humble Pie when they delivered a scorching reinterpretation of Ray Charles’ “I Don’t Need No Doctor.” Ranked by Return of Rockas one of the best Humble Pie songs of all time, “I Don’t Need No Doctor” is a p...
“Rock On” might not have been the greatest Humble Pie album ever made, but it did at least give us one of their greatest songs. “Stone Cold Fever” is a tour de force. Killer rock riffs rub shoulders with jazzy solos and refined intermissions, showing a level of diversity the band rarely indulged in, but that provided a welcome reprieve from the str...
“30 Days in the Hole” is a gritty piece of rock and roll that may have failed to chart, but which stands as one of Humble Pie’s most popular songs, and their best. A vengeful, rollicking romp inspired by Marriott’s arrest for drug possession, its simmering aggression does nothing to detract from its funky delivery. Covered by everyone from Gov’t Mu...
