A passionate masterpiece that combines soul and rock.
This album by British rock band Humble Pie is one of the band's most representative works, featuring Steve Marriott's husky vocals colliding with soulful playing.
The band's sound is characterized by the energy of hard rock, but also by strong gospel and R&B influences. Steve Marriott's vocals are rough yet emotional, driving the album forward as the energy shifts direction with each song. The intertwining of guitar and organ adds depth, and the rhythm section is funky and tight. The recording is full of live vibes, and despite being recorded in a studio, the result is highly immersive. The mid-tempo tracks also have a blues-like flavor, giving a sense of their diverse roots. Overall, the album is packed with content that epitomizes the soulful side of '70s British rock.
