{"product_id":"humble-pie-as-safe-as-yesterday-is-gold","title":"Humble Pie - As Safe As Yesterday Is [Gold]","description":"\u003cp\u003eHumble Pie's As Safe As Yesterday Is returns on limited, numbered gold vinyl, a fitting finish for the 1969 debut that launched one of British rock's great supergroups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band brought together Steve Marriott, fresh from the Small Faces, and Peter Frampton of The Herd, with bassist Greg Ridley and drummer Jerry Shirley completing the line-up. Frampton was still a teenager when they formed. Released on Immediate, their first album is looser and more eclectic than the hard-driving boogie they later became famous for, mixing heavy blues rock with folk and country touches as two gifted frontmen found their way around each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir take on Steppenwolf's \"Desperation\" opens the record with brooding, slow-building weight, and \"Stick Shift\" rumbles along with bluesy swagger. \"Bang!\" is a punchy jolt of energy, while \"Alabama '69\" swaps amps for a rootsy, acoustic shuffle that hints at the range still to come. Marriott's raw, soulful howl sits beautifully against Frampton's lighter touch throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's the sound of two of the era's great talents pulling in the same direction for the first time. For anyone who loves late-60s British rock, this gold reissue is a handsome way to revisit where it all began for the band.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57287068025137,"sku":"5060915240262","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Humble_Pie-As_Safe_As_Yesterday_Is_Gold.jpg?v=1793728902","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/humble-pie-as-safe-as-yesterday-is-gold","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
