Shortly after leaving Small Faces, Marriott joined the newly formed rock band Humble Pie with Peter Frampton, drummer Jerry Shirley and bassist Greg Ridley.

"Humble Pie (album) Humble Pie is the third album released by English rock group Humble Pie in 1970, and their first with A&M Records. ""Humble Pie"" was a transitional album and a harbinger of the band's new, heavier direction. The material was darker than their previous two efforts, with striking contrasts in volume and style – Peter Frampton's gentle ""Earth and Water Song"" is buttressed between two of the heaviest tracks on the record, the band composed [] ""One Eyed Trouser Snake Rumba,"" and a cover of Willie Dixon's ""I'm Ready"".

With his backing band Slim Chance, Lane then released several singles and albums from 1973–1976, including the 1974 UK hit ""How Come"".
