Steve Marriott - Piano/Harmonica/Vocals

Daddy Rollin’ Stone was an Otis Blackwell number that had been covered by, among others, the Who in their 1965 R&B days. Leaving the guitar work to Steve Jones, Johnny passes the mic to Phil Lynott, who sings the second verse with compelling Dublin soul, and Steve Marriott (the inimitable voice of the Small Faces and Humble Pie), who wraps things up in gutbusting style. (With Lynott’s death in 1986 and Marriott’s in early ‘91, the black crepe hangs heavy around this jam.)” - from liner notes by Ira Robbins (1992)
