Matthew Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 Hard to believe he passed away almost twenty years to this very day (April 20, 1991). I'll have to play the live Humble Pie album from the Filmore today -- very loud. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Posted April 24, 2011 I saw him live a few years before he died. He was in pretty rough shape physically. Vocally he could scream, but his voice had lost its elasticity. He was a great talent in his day, but hard living did him in early, sadly. Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 Loved him in the sm faces, not so much Humble Pie, why? Quote
PHILLYQ Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 Saw him with Humble Pie and Frampton around 72/73. HP had the misfortune of following J Geils Band, and JGB was the opener and did two encores! They drove the place insane and the audience wouldn't let them leave. HP came on and played at a painful volume level. Halfway through their set the place was 3/4 empty with more people leaving. Quote
JSngry Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 Quite apart from Marriott, is that Consider Yourself song not one of the most deeply irritating combinations of thought, word, and deed ever put in to place by one human upon another? Quote
