Go for the Throat is the tenth studio album recorded by the English rock band Humble Pie and the second with the new lineup including, guitarist and vocalist Steve Marriott, drummer Jerry Shirley, American bassist Anthony "Sooty" Jones and vocalist and guitarist, Bobby Tench from The Jeff Beck Group.[3] Marriott also brought in backing vocalists Marge Raymond, Dana Kral and Robin Beck, once again looking for a more authenthic and refined R&B sound and feel. Go For The Throat was released by Atco in 1981 and the new version of "Tin Soldier" reached #58 in the US single charts. [4]
The band toured the album after it had been released.[5] At the beginning of the tour scheduled appearances by the band were delayed when Marriott damaged his hand. He then later became ill, forcing the cancellation of all further tour dates. Soon afterwards Humble Pie disbanded[4] after being dropped by their record label due to contractual differences.[5]
