Humble Pie were one of the so-called "supergroups", made up of well-known members of popular bands, which became a trend in 1969. (Other supergroups included Blind Faith and Crosby, Stills and Nash, who later became Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.) Humble Pie lasted longer than the other supergroups and were particularly successful in the USA - which may explain why, despite picking up a fair amount of airplay on Peel's shows in the early '70s, the only session they did for Top Gear was soon after their formation in 1969.
