Up Our Sleeve: Official Bootleg Box Set Vol 3 (5CD)

Five CD set. Humble Pie's Up Our Sleeve: Official Bootleg Box Set Vol 3 is the latest recorded testament to what this band did best; playing bluesy, gutsy, soulful hard rock, live on stage. Drawn from a variety of audience recordings that have previously only been available as under the counter pirate releases, this is an honest and raw tribute to a classic and much missed super-group on the 1970s, released in conjunction with Pie founder member and drummer, Jerry Shirley. Originally emerging from the remnants of 1960s beat heroes The Small Faces, Humble Pie formed in 1969 when mercurial guitarist and vocalist Steve Marriott joined forces with The Herd's Peter Frampton, joined by drummer Jerry Shirley and bassist Greg Ridley. This collection features two essays; one from Malcolm Dome based on new interviews with The Pie's Jerry Shirley and a second from renown Pie expert, Iain McGonigal.
