Search - Humble Pie - Special Edition EP on DVD

Buy The Life and Times of Steve Marriott Instead

"Everything on this DVD is available on ASIN B00004Y57A. The only difference is that the footage on that one is punctuated with the faces of aging rockers giving interviews, and perhaps a little truncated. Despite those aesthetic blemishes, however, the Life and Times of Steve Marriot is just a better product. Incidentally, if you *must* purchase this, one of the cool things about it is the DVD jukebox feature, which is 10 videos from Leon Russell, Jack Bruce, Procol Harum, etc. That may be worth the price of this DVD alone - however, most of the footage is from the later years. And in any case, the full Leon Russell DVD is a better purchase anyway."

SITTIN' DOWN TO A TINY SLICE OF PIE WITH A LARGE SIDE OF ADS

Ain't much Pie on this plate.

What little crust there is (four songs) all appear on the "Life & Times Of Steve Marriott" DVD.

However, there are a TON of advertisements (33!) for other titles.

It's even possible that the disc space allotted to the ads may exceed that allocated to the small piece of Pie footage.

The producers of this disc should have concentrated on baking more Pie, instead of trying to peddle their other wares.

There is nothing here to whet your Humble appetite, because this sliver of Pie has virtually no filling.

Thanks for reading my review.. It's been pun!"
