4 out of 5 stars A Good Slice O' Pie!!!.......2003-10-13

With the release of both anthologies Millennium and Hot 'N Nasty, music fans should be able to restore Humble Pie to their rightful niche in rock history as one of the founding fathers of seventies hard rock. The tragedy is that Steve Marriott, until the day he died, wanted to be an r and b/soul singer instead. This explains the presence of the Blackberries; though they are luscious background singers (especially on "Black Coffee" their one cut included here), their straight rhythm and blues vocals often clashed with the Pie's harder rocking sound. Thankfully, the band's hard rock material, not the later blue-eyed soul Pie, is featured here: "Four Day Creep," "Hot 'N Nasty," the underrated "Big Black Dog," and "30 Days in the Hole" (complete with memorable rehearsal introduction) are all included here, plus a fantastic cover of the Muddy Waters classic "Rollin' Stone" that proves that hard rock and blues can and do indeed mix to perfection. "Shine On" is a great Peter Frampton cut, but his best number is of course "I Don't Need No Doctor," still a staple of his live performances today. It really rocks the Fillmore and proves that he and Steve enjoyed a special chemistry together that neither could fully replicate alone. Enjoy this tasty slice of pie with a cup of strong, fresh-brewed black coffee! Bottoms up!!!

3 out of 5 stars Stingy collection of songs.......2003-05-13

All of the songs on this collection are great--not a lemon in the bunch. But with only 52 minutes of music, it's an inadequate offering. There is so much else that could have been added including: Get Down To It, Honky Tonk Woman, I Can't Stand the Rain, 99 Pounds, Road Runner, Good Booze and Bad Women, Every Single Day, The Fixer, Anna and many others. Also, the 20 second introduction to I Don't Need No Doctor was chopped off.

4 out of 5 stars Sounds better, rocks hard.......2002-07-29

First: Even though the Pie was just redone a couple years ago for the "Hot 'N Nasty" collection, this CD sounds even better. I don't know who's doing all the remastering now, but the Pie [and recent James Gang remasters] sound better than they have in years!

Even the selction was made with some care, including the "probably not best of" songs 'Four Day Creep' and 'Big Black Dog' alongside Pie classics like 'Hot N Nasty', '30 Days in the Hole', 'Stone Cold Fever' and the powerful live take of 'I Don't Need No Doctor' just reinforces how strong this band was. This is a CD you can just groove right along with all day long. Lots of air guitar predicted.

My gripes are only the inclusion of 'C'Mon Everybody' (just never did it for me) and 'Rollin' Stone.' I would have liked liked 'Buttermilk Boy' and maybe one more track from "Eat It" or "Rock On." But that's just MY 2 cents worth.

Great starting point for beginers, great for reintroducing yourself to one of the 'lost' English blues/soul bands (Re: influence on the Black Crowes) or a great gift for an uncle (or your Dad) for raiding his record collection back in the day.

5 out of 5 stars Heavy Metal classic band.......2002-07-14

This is a good sample of the classic metal group Humble Pie.
If you like this there are some other heavy groups similer to this with their own Millenium collection: Wishbone Ash, Savoy Brown, Cream, Steppenwolf, Deep Purple. If you enjoy heavy metal from the late 60's and early 70's, you will love these compilations. Humble Pie was a British band that tried to play as loud and hard as possible. They were very good and when the group featured Peter Frampton on lead guitar, they could give any heavy group of the time a run for their money (including Led Zeppelin).

5 out of 5 stars Timeless Classic Rock.............2001-12-15

That's some kick-A** Classic CD of Humble Pie just one jam going into another good jam. This Classic Album is so good that when you listen to it it's already done.....They left some timeless masterpiece...

    5 out of 5 stars TAKE A HUGE SLICE !.......2004-09-18

    This record is no less than GIGANTIC...despite being a generic "Best Of". I mean, I'm more of a Small Faces fellow, myself, but every track on here is HUGE. Steve Marriott's voice is incredible and they managed to minimize the more horrendous Frampton tracks. Good thing he was out of the band early, huh ?

    Along with The Faces, the Pie managed to break out of the English pop world they felt stuck in before forming the group and went on to become one of the biggest and best of the 70's boogie groups (prounounced "bew-gee", of course).


    3 out of 5 stars A Lightweight Anthology.......2002-08-18

    Subtitled "Hot and Nasty" and featuring one THE most disgusting covers in rock history, "The Best of Humble Pie" checks in at a mere 9 songs, making it pretty skimpy for an anthology album. That said, how much you'll enjoy the material that IS included will probably depend on your tolerance for this band's music to begin with. Warning to those who dig Peter Frampton, the sound of his old band bears little resemblence to his "Frampton Comes Alive" superstar period of the late 70s. Humble Pie specialized in metallic boogie (read: Foghat and Thin Lizzy) as typified by the lengthy live version of "I Don't Need No Doctor" that closes the album. Other decent cuts include the single "30 Days in the Hole," the title track, "Stone Cold Fever" and "Shine On." On the downside is a truly wretched cover of the Stones' "Honky Tonk Women" that'll send you running back to the original.

    Overall, a skimpy anthology album from one of classic rock's less well-remembered bands.
