...with SOME of my random thoughts on this album...! :freak:
 
The last time I saw Humble Pie perform live was in 1972 (or a year either way) in Rochester NY. They had the Blackberries, on stage with them and they were a nice attribute to the bands performance. Steve Marriott was really putting on a show that night… what a ball of energetic fire he was.
