5 out of 5 stars TAKE A HUGE SLICE !.......2004-09-18

This record is no less than GIGANTIC...despite being a generic "Best Of". I mean, I'm more of a Small Faces fellow, myself, but every track on here is HUGE. Steve Marriott's voice is incredible and they managed to minimize the more horrendous Frampton tracks. Good thing he was out of the band early, huh ?

Along with The Faces, the Pie managed to break out of the English pop world they felt stuck in before forming the group and went on to become one of the biggest and best of the 70's boogie groups (prounounced "bew-gee", of course).


3 out of 5 stars A Lightweight Anthology.......2002-08-18

Subtitled "Hot and Nasty" and featuring one THE most disgusting covers in rock history, "The Best of Humble Pie" checks in at a mere 9 songs, making it pretty skimpy for an anthology album. That said, how much you'll enjoy the material that IS included will probably depend on your tolerance for this band's music to begin with. Warning to those who dig Peter Frampton, the sound of his old band bears little resemblence to his "Frampton Comes Alive" superstar period of the late 70s. Humble Pie specialized in metallic boogie (read: Foghat and Thin Lizzy) as typified by the lengthy live version of "I Don't Need No Doctor" that closes the album. Other decent cuts include the single "30 Days in the Hole," the title track, "Stone Cold Fever" and "Shine On." On the downside is a truly wretched cover of the Stones' "Honky Tonk Women" that'll send you running back to the original.
