Humble Pie was one of the best rock and roll bands ever. Steve Marriot was said to be one of the best white soul singers, ever! He gave it everything he had. We miss you Steve. Awesome band! Thanks Fil.

Steve Marriott's voice was one of the greatest in rock music. It could strip the paint off the wall at the back of the hall. RIP Steve and Greg Ridley.

Steve Marriott was the quintessential rock star 👍

It's a crime that Steve Marriott is underrated. He was an unbelievable lead singer. What a

Steve Marriott was unbelievable. The classic rock star stage persona and vocalist.

To me, Humble Pie were so organic they were better live than recorded or simply jamming and improvising. I mean, what they did with "For Your Love" was incredibly cool and chilled. Steve's voice is biblical, and the group mega talented. It's such a privilege to watch real artists play. Perfectly executed, spot on Fil.

Thank you so much Fil. I'm a little obsessed by Steve Marriot. I can't believe he is not more of a household name. Other than his obvious talent, I love his generosity and connection to the music. You rarely see him hog the limelight. You can see his focus is getting the best performance out there and he wants to share that experience with the most people he can. With a band strong enough to match him, their live performances were just something truly special. Always the Artful Dodger, you couldn't help but love Steve, faults and all.

Steve Marriott was my all time favorite vocalist. His guitar and harmonica work was also very impressive

Steve Marriott & Peter Frampton? Don’t get much better than that 🎶🎸

Jerry Shirley on drums was still only 19 here. This was a great era for music, I was 16 when this was filmed so I'd already been a Small Faces fan in the previous few years. Fantastic musicians seemed to be everywhere in those days.

I always loved how Frampton doesnt just play straight blues scales. He jumps all over the place modally. Definitely gives it that "Frampton" sound.

Steve Marriott is gold. Great band as well. So much power and energy. Great job using this song and the lead lines to provide as much as you did with blues guitar. Thanks Fil.

[padraiggillon]

Hands down, my favorite singer of all time. Okay, I lied, sometimes Sam Cooke is my favorite. Although I will say, I think vocally Steve was at his prime in his Small Faces days.

Met Steve back in 80 when they played in MI. Just so happens my cousin was a bartender at the bar in the hotel the band stayed in. She needed couple days off to go out of town and asked if I could fill in for her, so I did. Was really slow night and he walked in and sat down ordering a cubra libre in thick Brit accent. Not some heard at all around Detroit, British accent or a rum and coke ordered that way! Took a couple repeats, we both laughed after I figured out what the hell he wanted. Just me and him in bar so we had pretty good talk and he went to play and I found out next day they got kicked out for trashing the hotel, lol. But nice guy, and we had pretty good talk while there. Night I won't forget. Would've liked to party with him a bit but I was about 7 mos. pregnant at time so had to be good! But a great memory. RIP Steve.

LOVE Humble Pie! Steve Marriott was one of the BEST vocalists ever. Love hearing and seeing Peter Frampton before he was "Peter Frampton", LOL! Thanks Fil!
