Watch this amazing atmospheric video which reflects the words and feelings of the performance perfectly." The cover of the HUMBLE PIE classic in its very bare and raw form highlights both Glenn's unique and powerful voice as well Doug's distinctive playing technique.

Says the band: "Darker nights, isolation and a world full of uncertainties have all been great inspiration for our latest video featuring the haunting version of '30 Days In The Hole', stripped back and done with a guitar and voice featuring Glenn and Doug. The effort contains four acoustic tracks, all of them exclusive to this EP. The track is taken from THE DEAD DAISIES' new digital EP, "The Lockdown Sessions", which was made avaialble on July 17 via Steamhammer/ SPV. This was one of the first Humble Pie songs he contributed to.THE DEAD DAISIES - the hard rock "collective" founded by Australian musician and businessman David Lowy - has released the official music video for its cover version of the HUMBLE PIE classic "30 Days In The Hole". It was only released in the US a year after the album came out, and it didn’t chart.ĭave Clempson, formerly of Colosseum, had recently joined the band as guitarist. This wasn’t released as a single in the group’s native England.
#Humble pie 30 days movie
It’s also possible that the film was Somebody Up There Likes Me, a 1956 movie where Paul Newman is threatened with the “30 days in the hole.” Marriott may have been referring to the 1938 movie Angels With Dirty Faces, although that line is never uttered in the film. Marriott has said that inspiration for the title came from a Humphrey Bogart/James Cagney movie he saw on TV, where Bogart plays a prisoner who gets sent to “30 days in the hole.” In many ways, the song is a call for legalization. Marriott was making the point that drugs were a part of culture (just as alcohol was a generation earlier) and there was nothing wrong with it. He was also thinking about a friend of the band’s who had been sent to jail for having a joint. Marriott got the idea after playing a show in Kentucky, where he learned that getting caught with drugs earned you 30 days in jail. Written by Humble Pie lead singer Steve Marriott, this song is about getting busted for drugs and getting sent to jail. There are several drug and alcohol references in this song: “Red Lebanese” and “Black Napalese” are forms of hashish, “Chicago Green” is pot, and New Castle Brown is a kind of heroin…not to be confused with Newcastle Brown which is ale. It’s as sleazy as you can get but it rocks. This is one of the nastiest songs you will hear. Steve Marriott combined hard rock with a gospel feel. Humble Pie tried something different than most hard rock bands at the time. I don’t usually do repeats of songs (except for Christmas and other Holidays) but with this one song, I will make an exception. Lisa did this once a week for a while so I thought I would make a week of it.
I’m starting off with 30 Days In The Hole released in 1972. This week we have songs that are about drugs or reference drugs in the song.
