Summary: Without Peer
Comment: Humble Pie Performance Rockin' The Fillmore is the first best-ever live album to come out of the double lp live albums of the seventies. This album is pure rock and roll ecstacy and is without peer. Bob Seger's Silver Bullet Band album sounds like a bunch of pansys next to this masterpiece. Peter Frampton's Frampton Comes Alive would never have happened had it not been for Rockin' the Fillmore, on which he played a vital role. This is rock and roll at its best. Powerful guitar, powerful singing, and a rock solid and powerful band.

Summary: Hard rockin' at it's best....
Comment: If you like good 70's hard rock at all, this album is a must have. Steve Marriott was a demon onstage(saw the Pie back in '74) and could sing like nobody's business.Peter Frampton honed his chops with this band.
These guys thundered their way through the set and left us screaming for more. "I Don't Need No Doctor" has to be one of THE best hard rockers ever written, "Stone Cold Fever", "Four Day Creep" and "I'm Ready" are worthy tunes too. Get this disc and experience what GREAT 70's hard rock was all about. RIP Stevie, we miss you.

Summary: If you think you've heard it all...
Comment: ...get this CD. It'll be like the coolest water on the hottest day. The Godfather of Blues Rock, the late Steve Marriott, with his fine band of merry men (Peter Frampton among them, as well as the late Greg Ridley on bass and Jerry Shirley on drums) take the stage to shred, mince, dice, julienne your mind, and then savagely rip your liver out through your nose and make some sort of weird Japanese entrée out of it. This album is sorely underrated in the annals of rock history and deserves a spot among the best; It establishes the band as a good studio act and an even better live act (As is in the case of Frampton in his solo years). There's only one flaw: the censor's bleep during "Rolling Stone", which is easily overlooked due to the great quality of the music. A must for ANY rocker's CD library, I recommend it without reservation. ROCK ON!

Summary: Are you ready?
Comment: Intense, lurid, boogiefied, and at time even borderline psychedelic.
Humble Pie took 1 original, 5 covers, and 1 song which they credited to Ida Cox but has nothing in common with the credited song, and through ripped through them with all the power, intensity and emotion they had for some of the best 73 minutes of rock and heavy blues I have ever heard!
The thing I love the most is that they had the ability to make the cover song completly their own. I have heard allot of versions of Willie Dixon's I'm Ready, none was energeic as this one. Steve Marriot is awsome on vocals. There's no frills and thrills here, just solid, pure rock with all the sleazy attitude expected from a hard rock show.
