Solid rock is a superb compilation, credited to "Alvin Lee & Ten Years After". But the best thing is that it includes 3 unreleased tracks. Apart from two previously released songs, Tim appears in two of the unreleased tracks. One of these new tracks is from 1993, 'Play like it used to be', co-written by Alvin and Tim, and featuring them as a duo. A 2nd unreleased track was probably taken from the Alvin Lee & Co. concert at 1974. The new track is 'I love you when you rock and roll'.

Pure blues is another compilation, also credited to "Alvin Lee & Ten Years After", compiling tracks from the entire Alvin Lee career.

Scrubbers is a post-humous album by the great Steve Marriott must contain outtakes from Humble Pie period. Taking a look to the guest musicians credits, it's almost exactly as some Humble Pie albums. My Spanish copy is titled "The last album", and it has 21 tracks (although credits say there are only 20!).

Also mentioned: Joe & his late wife Vicki Brown (they are Sam Brown's parents), Mick Eve, and Alexis Korner. Produced by Steve Marriott and Tim Hinkley, the material included is a bit loose. Some tracks sound as unfinished, but some others are fantastic. Just an example: listen to Tim's organ work on 'Cocaine (round my brain)'.

The album has been reissued by Eagle Records under the title The Scrubbers Sessions, this time credited to Humble Pie.
