''As Safe as Yesterday Is'' is the debut album for rock band Humble Pie, released in the UK in August 1969. The album peaked at number 32 in the UK album chart.〔 〕〔 〕 Featuring former frontmen Steve Marriott (ex–Small Faces) and Peter Frampton (ex–The Herd), Humble Pie were saddled with the then-popular tag of supergroup before they had even played a note.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = rateyourmusic.com )〕 ==Album profile== ''As Safe as Yesterday Is'' is a blend of heavy blues, crushing rock, pastoral folk, and post-mod pop. Marriott contributed six songs to the album, one co-written with Frampton, who also contributed two solo efforts. The record opens with a cover version of Steppenwolf's "Desperation" and the track "Growing Closer" was written by ex–Small Faces keyboardist Ian McLagan who actually rehearsed with Humble Pie early on, before deciding instead to form The Faces with Rod Stewart, Ron Wood, Kenney Jones, and Ronnie Lane.〔 〕 Mike Saunders (later to become singer in punk band Angry Samoans) is credited for one of the first coinings of the term heavy metal as a subgenre in a 1970 review of ''As Safe as Yesterday Is'' for ''Rolling Stone''. In 2006, the VH1 Classic documentary ''Heavy: The Story of Metal'', the original text is shown in a close-up from the 12 November 1970 issue, in which he wrote: "Here Humble Pie were a noisy, unmelodic, heavy metal-leaden shit-rock band, with the loud and noisy parts beyond doubt."〔http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/heavy_the_story_of_metal/series.jhtml〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「As Safe as Yesterday Is」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
