Stephen Peter Marriott (30 January 1947 – 20 April 1991) was an English actor, musician, guitarist, singer and songwriter. He was a student at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts in London and appeared in the West End, before taking a role in music. He co-founded and played in the rock bands Small Faces and Humble Pie, in a career spanning over 20 years. Marriott was inducted posthumously into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012 as a member of Small Faces.
In Britain, Marriott became a popular, often-photographed mod style icon. Marriott was influenced by musicians such as: Miles Davis, Buddy Holly, Booker T & the MG's, Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Muddy Waters and Bobby Bland. In his later life, Marriott distanced himself from the mainstream music industry and turned away from major record labels, remaining in relative obscurity. He returned to his musical roots, playing in local pubs and clubs around London and Essex.
Marriott died on 20 April 1991 when a fire, which was thought to have been caused by a cigarette, swept through his 16th-century home in Arkesden, Essex. He was 44 and posthumously received an Ivor Novello Award in 1996 for his "Outstanding Contribution to British Music", and was listed in Mojo as one of the top 100 greatest singers of all time.

The man put out a lot of live cd's, but only about 4 cd's of solo studio music. His first cd Marriott is by far the best and a must have. His last cd of covers 30 Seconds to Midnight is just okay. The only other two worth having are the Official Receivers (live & studio cuts) and this one Clear Through the Night. This is a compilation of unreleased stuff and it covers a variety of styles--mostly rock and bluesy tunes and is filled with quality music.
Record companies have since compiled more cd's of this and other less quality stuff----the last one being Need Your Love. That one will sell because of the two Frampton/Marriott tunes which can also be found on Peter Frampton's Shine on Collection. Anyway, between his first cd, Official Receivers, and this one you will be set with your Marriott solo collection.
