On Dec. 2, A&M/UMe will revisit some key albums from the iconic catalog of Humble Pie with The A&M CD Box Set (1970-1975), an eight-disc collection celebrating the early 1970s portion of the English rock band‘s output.

It’s an expanded version, of sorts, of the 9-LP vinyl collection A&M Vinyl Box Set (1970-1975) that was released in 2017 (and can be picked up from our Rock Cellar Store by clicking here).

This new 8-disc collection, though, also comes with an additional, eighth bonus disc consisting of 14 rare B-sides and other rarities not part of the Vinyl Box Set, including five previously unreleased tracks. Also featured in this new 8-CD collection are a hardback book with an all-new essay, rare photos, and other memorabilia. Meanwhile, the limited-edition ecommerce 8CD edition includes an exclusive lithograph.

As a refresher on the band’s history:

Humble Pie was an early rock supergroup forged in the county of Essex in England in the autumn of 1968 by Peter Frampton, the lead singer and lead guitarist with The Herd, along with drummer Jerry Shirley. Steve Marriott, the legendary lead singer of The Small Faces, then joined in January 1969, along with bassist Greg Ridley from Spooky Tooth. When Frampton left in 1971 to pursue a successful solo career, guitarist Clem Clempson stepped in, and the band carried on through 1975 before going their separate ways.
