HUMBLE PIE : Live At The BBC (1970)

Great live BBC recording from 1970. Thanks to Pauli...
This features one of my all time heroes, the late
Steve Marriott in his post Small Faces outfit. I will
always treasure the memory of meeting him before his
Band On The Wall (Manchester) gig in 1991.

  4. Ive still got a treasured signed Band On The Wall flyer from that gig. Even got a drink off Steve's rider - what a man. His fine voice never deserted him - up there with Steve Winwod & Paul Radgers.
