Доп. информация:
Smokin’ is the the fifth studio album by the English group Humble Pie, released in 1972. The album peaked at #6 on the U.S. Billboard 200 album chart, and hit the UK Top 30.

This was Humble Pie’s first post-Peter Frampton album. Co-founder and blues shouter ‘par excellence’ Steve Marriott was thoroughly in charge here, and the result was the band’s best-selling album. Highlights include dramatically slowed down versions of Eddie Cochran’s “C’mon Everybody”, Junior Walker’s “Road Runner”, and the wah-wah laden slow blues “The Fixer”. “You’re So Good for Me”, which begins as a delicate acoustic number, ultimately mutates into a full-bore gospel music rave-up, an element that would later influence bands like The Black Crowes.

Alexis Korner guests on the track “Old Time Feelin’”, Marriott’s vocals take a back seat on this number as the main vocals are provided by Greg Ridley and Korner who also plays a Martin Tipple, mandolin-type guitar, the sound is reminiscent of their song “Alabama ’69″ appearing on their first album.

Stephen Stills of Crosby, Stills & Nash guests on “Road Runner ‘G’ Jam” (the title is a nod to the band’s habit of developing songs out of jam sessions), playing some incredible Hammond organ fills, and his backing vocals were over-dubbed on “Hot ‘n’ Nasty” a slow-burning and then dynamic R&B song, after he strolled in after recording his own sessions next door.

Marriott insisted on producing the album himself, he wanted to face the challenge of running a compact R&B sound to the rules of a high-tech 24-track mixing board. Marriott collapsed with exhaustion in February. New Musical Express (NME) reported at the time: “Following intense recording sessions with Humble Pie, Steve Marriott collapsed with nervous exhaustion and doctors told him to rest”.

With this album the group arguably defined themselves as the undisputed leaders of the boogie movement in the early 1970s.
