Humble Pie

Humble Pie is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Johnny Hallyday, Small Faces, Alexis Korner, Grand Funk Railroad and The Beatles. Those roots explain a lot about how Humble Pie arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Free, James Gang, Ten Years After, Foghat and Faces, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Bryan Adams, Chad Smith, Victory, Eric Singer and Trans-Siberian Orchestra, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 51 connections around Humble Pie, reaching back through Johnny Hallyday and forward to Bryan Adams.

Background

Humble Pie are an English rock band formed by former Small Faces vocalist and guitarist Steve Marriott and former Herd vocalist and guitarist Peter Frampton in Moreton, Essex, in 1969. The original line-up was completed by former Spooky Tooth bassist Greg Ridley and former Apostolic Intervention drummer Jerry Shirley. They are known as one of the first supergroups of the late 1960s and enjoyed success in the early 1970s with songs such as "Black Coffee", "30 Days in the Hole", "I Don't Need No Doctor", "Hot 'n' Nasty" and "Natural Born Bugie". Frampton left the band in 1971 and was replaced by Clem Clempson.
