Humble Pie

The rock band Humble Pie was in 1969 in Great Britain founded by Steve Marriott. Marriott was stopped shortly before The Small Faces and decided with The Herd's Peter Frampton , Spooky Tooth 's Greg Ridley and Jerry Shirley to set up the Humble Pie. The combination of these four musicians turned out to be unique and their first two albums "As Safe As Yesterday Is" and "Town And Country" were a great success. In 1969 the Group had a hit In Netherlands with Natural born bugie (often misspelled as Natural born boogie).

While the success continued until in the 1970s, the band could not hold its original popularity. Frampton decided to leave the Group and was replaced by Clem Clempson. Marriott decided to withdraw later in the club circuit until his death in 1991.

In 2002 , the original members of The Humble Pie back together and released the album "Back On Track" out. Ridley died on 19 november 2003.

The band members were:

• Steve Marriott (vocals and guitar)
• Peter Frampton (vocals and guitar)
• Greg Ridley (vocals, bass)
• Jerry Shirley (drums)
