some good solos
Live dad rock album with great guitar playing
Do you feel like we do earns 4 stars by itself. What a gem.
Live albums are tricky, this is one of the few that pulls it off so successfully that three of the songs are still played on rock radio today, 50 years later.
This is the live album that put Frampton (and the Talk Box Pedal) on the map. It’s a very good album.
Tuneful, good harmonies, diverse enough, but what a horrible haircut
Really like it, one of my favourites so far, big fan of the live performance aspect, slightly long but the guitar solos are incredible and his voice is crisp
Greatest live Albums 1 Live after Death IM 2 Live over Hammersmith IM 3 Exit Stage Left Rush 4 isle of white The Who
3.5
I think what has always kept this at a four stars is side four which is Sofa King good. The other three sides has a nice ebb and flow to it with a few great highlights. When it gets into jam mode I really dug it. Low point to me was the Stones cover. (8.25) ★★★★
Man, what a great player. Powerful album.
first time listen, and now I must purchase the vinyl..
Love this live album. One of the great guitar live shows of the 70s before everything got a bit too heavy. Loved hair bands in the 80s but even then I still loved this album
I thought this was solid. Never felt the need to skip. Didn’t feel like it was dragging on like some live albums (like Deep Purple.
When I think of classic rock, this is the exact kind of sound that comes to mind. It has broad commercial appeal, hence the name stadium rock, but at the same time is still musically interesting. It just plain sounds good. Favorites: Baby, I Love Your Way, Jumping Jack Flash, Do You Feel Like We Do
Gedigen och bra rock! 7/10
Peter Who? Ich kannte den Interpreten nicht, aber die Songs „Show Me The Way“ und „Baby I Love Your Way“ ließen die Synapsen springen. Tolles Live Rock Album der 70er. Die Ballade „Lines On My Face“ und der Headbanger „Money“ verleihen dem Album eine echte Stadion-Atmosphäre. Da geh ich noch mal hin.
Lekker live album. Duurt wel net te lang
Brampton would have been a fun live show to see
A classic. Stands the test of time. Its not ALL great, but undeniable.
A classic live album.
Great stuff.
4 First off 1001 albums, it’s not “Frampton Comes Alive”, it’s “Frampton Comes Alive!”. Homeboy EARNED that exclamation mark. My first ever impression of this album, and what I still think of today whenever I hear it, was through Homestar Runner (where my other 2000s kids at?) Someone wrote Strong Bad an email asking for advice on making out (as one did), explaining that the whole “Peter Frampton thing” was not getting her any action, to which Strong Bad replied, “Well, Kissless, you’re going about it all wrong. Frampton’s not going to loosen anybody’s lips”. So why did everyone and their mother own a copy of this album? Isn’t that the whole point of Baby, I Love Your Way? I even have a copy of this friggin’ album sitting in my vinyl collection, and I have no idea how it got there - is this thing just an unexplained parasite that has plagued suburban, middle-class homes for decades? Or, the alternative is that this is just a good album. Despite that, it seems that this has become popular to hate on in recent years, to the point that it’s almost a meme. Say what you will, that it’s lame because our parents liked it or that 2 or 3 songs carry the whole thing, but in my personal experience, whenever I rummage through my albums and find myself somehow shocked yet again that I actually own a copy of this damn thing, 3 out of 4 times I end up putting it on and having a good time with it. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I think it’s totally fair to say Show Me the Way, Baby, I Love Your Way, and Do You Feel Like We Do are standouts among the rest, but I’m not really sure what’s to dislike about anything else you hear. As someone prone to shit on soft rock, I’ve always found this to be nothing but a pleasant listen. And you know what? The talkbox is cool as hell. There, I said it. I really only have one complaint to lodge towards this and it’s the cover Jumping Jack Flash - the song totally lacks the energy of the original and it hurts it dearly. Also, hearing the breaks representing the moment you’re supposed to get up and change the disc over is a little annoying on Spotify, but I guess I can’t fault them for not planning ahead in that regard. So, yeah, for once in my life, I’m going to side with the boomers here. I was a little surprised to see how few play counts this has on Spotify for as popular as this album once was, but I guess everyone must be a little burned out from it. Who knows, maybe this will be the kind of thing Gen Alpha will call a hidden gem someday.
4 great live album. Fantastic guitar player. Fav songs: show me the way and do you feel like I do
Well done, a good, fun and rocking concert album that kept me interested and introduced me to a new (yet old) artist.
Ja jävlar. Tycker inte riktigt att jag kan känna igen Namnet Frampton. Känner ni igen Baby, I love your way (men via covern). Hur som. Var lite skeptisk när jag såg att det var ett live-album. Men jag har nog bytt inställning. Det är inte dåligt. Vi har ju fått lyssna på flera nu, det är ibland riktigt bra. Det blir nån annan stämning (sen hjälper det ju om musiken är bra i grund och botten). Överlag var det alltså en bra upplevelse. Resan från första noterna. Kul!
Inte lyssnat på honom tidigare, men det här var ju riktigt trevlig gubbrock som var lätt att tycka om.
Had to listen to this on a youtube rip off vinyl because, for some strange reason, some of the tracks on this album are blocked in the US on Spotify? Bizarre. A full banger album, dad rocky but that's kind of my jam, y'know?
Great live album starts off with a goodie and finishes on top with Do You Feel Like We Do. This album displays Frampton's guitar work in ways the studio versions of his songs cannot.
This was quite enjoyable. And I love live sets. All pleasant to listen to.
Fav: Show Me The Way - Live Least Fav: I Wanna Go To The Sun - Live Usually hate double live albums, but Frampton has pleasantly surprised me here. Not as bad as I expected an album under the Hard Rock genre to be
Best album recorded by a zombie ever.
I hear the opening chords over the screaming crowds and I see the album cover and I get it. That hair, those eyes! That Daft Punkesque foghorn(??) on the final track. We are mere mortals—take the wheel! Show us the way, Peter!
Better than expected. At times he sounds like a coffeehouse singer that made it to the big time however his voice is sweet and the songs are solid. Still has a great live sound and the songs feel so beautifully complete live.
Pretty good. I don’t understand how a live album can be a breakthrough album for an artist. Like why weren’t people listening to his songs when they originally came out? Were the live versions that much better? Also he did some guitar on All Things Must Pass.
Kinda generic but I did really like a few of the songs. The rest was meh
I can confirm he is indeed Alive.
Fun fact: vojko mrzi ovaj album iz dubine duše. Meni je baš super.
Classic!
3.75
It's a classic i guess but not that awesome
The virtuosity of Frampton's guitar playing is match only by the joyful energy he exudes on every track. There's a reason this was a seminal album of the mid-1970s.
Great live album. Excellent energy, clean sound. Just good classic rock. Standouts are "Show Me The Way" and "Baby, I Love Your Way"
Better then the last Frampton album on here, enjoyable for sure.
I don't love all of this, but this is definitely better than Frampton's recorded stuff. He's got an energy, I do wish we saw more of that. The amazing album closer brings this review up a point.
You forget how much you like some albums. This one has a lot of nostalgia factor. Everyone's older brother was playing this constantly. It's great, though. Just don't look for a lot of profundity. 4 stars for the guitar tone alone, and the solo in "Do You Feel.." is one of the GOATs. Peace and love, very sincere, lots of mistakes - it's live after all. A great listen.
Day 64 - November 12th, 2024 I need this man in a way that is concerning to society. 4/5
Live music haters when Peter Frample stops singing so the crowd can say "Is by your side": Loved this album, and they even had a cover of my favvvvourite part 6 fight, Jumping Jack Flash!!! Ig the live music made it a bit worse quality, but the crowd is my g High 4 Also he made the original "Baby I love your way," (also the best track) but then some mfs made a cover and that's the more popular version. lah-my-owh
Really liked it would give it a 4.5 because it’s not a 5 so 4 it is. I’ll give you money was a never before heard stand out.
9/10. Great vibes. It's one of the most important live albums of all time. :) Peter Frampton got inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame a few days ago, and I watched the ceremony. I think that his induction was incredible!!! :)
# Playlist track - Show me the way # Notes - Cool guitar riffs, great atmosphere all around. - Couple of solid classics thrown in for good measure.
Enjoyed this live album very much
Unexpectedly amazing rock
### *Frampton Comes Alive!*: In-Depth Review Released in January 1976, *Frampton Comes Alive!* catapulted Peter Frampton to stardom, becoming one of the best-selling live albums of all time. The double LP, which features recordings from his 1975 tour, is often credited with defining the live album format, showcasing Frampton’s prowess as a guitarist and performer. This review delves into the album’s lyrics, music, production, themes, and cultural impact, weighing its pros and cons. #### Music and Performance Musically, *Frampton Comes Alive!* is a blend of rock, blues, and pop. The album demonstrates Frampton’s versatility and guitar skills, particularly his use of the talk box, which became his signature sound. The iconic talk box effect is evident in tracks like "Do You Feel Like We Do" and "Show Me the Way," where Frampton uses it to modulate his guitar tone, creating a voice-like effect that interacts with the audience and amplifies the emotional impact of the music. The guitar work throughout the album is exceptional. Frampton's melodic phrasing on tracks like "Lines on My Face" and "Something's Happening" showcases a blend of lyrical fluidity and technical skill, while the live setting adds rawness to his solos. The rhythm section, featuring bassist Stanley Sheldon and drummer John Siomos, provides a solid foundation that supports Frampton’s expansive guitar solos and vocals, adding energy to the arrangements. The songs themselves cover various rock and blues-based styles. For example, "Show Me the Way" leans toward a pop-rock sound, while "Do You Feel Like We Do" features extended blues-influenced jamming. The 14-minute rendition of "Do You Feel Like We Do" is a highlight, with dynamic tempo changes, engaging audience interaction, and Frampton's expressive guitar solos. Its mix of structure and improvisation keeps it captivating despite its length. #### Lyrics and Themes Lyrically, *Frampton Comes Alive!* is not groundbreaking but reflects the themes of love, introspection, and connection with the audience. The lyrics are straightforward, often serving as a vehicle for Frampton’s emotional delivery rather than as standalone poetic statements. Songs like "Show Me the Way" and "Baby, I Love Your Way" are expressions of romantic longing, exploring themes of love and yearning with a directness that resonates with listeners. In "Lines on My Face," Frampton reflects on personal pain and growth, hinting at deeper emotions beneath the surface. While these lyrics may not possess the literary quality of some of his contemporaries, they are heartfelt and communicate relatable experiences. "Do You Feel Like We Do," meanwhile, captures the essence of a live rock concert experience, with Frampton’s playful lyrics inviting the audience into the moment. The line “Woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand” isn’t profound, but it fits the tone of a song designed to energize and entertain a live crowd. The lyrics across the album serve more to enhance the music and live atmosphere than to be standalone masterpieces. #### Production Quality The production of *Frampton Comes Alive!* captures the energy and spontaneity of a live performance without sacrificing sound quality. Producer Chris Kimsey and Frampton managed to strike a balance between the raw, unpolished feel of a live show and the clarity needed for a successful recording. This was no easy task in the 1970s, given the technological limitations of live recording. The album’s sound mix emphasizes the guitar, as it should for a guitar-centric album, while maintaining a clear separation of instruments. Frampton's vocals sit comfortably in the mix, never overpowered by the guitar or the rhythm section. The ambient crowd noise enhances the experience, making listeners feel as if they are in the venue. There are moments, however, where the audio quality dips slightly, with some muddiness in the lower frequencies during certain tracks. In some instances, the background vocals and secondary instrumentation could have been more prominent to add more depth to the sound. Nevertheless, the album’s production is an impressive achievement for its time. #### Themes and Impact The album's primary theme revolves around connection—between the artist and the audience, and among band members during extended jams. Frampton's banter with the crowd and his ability to get them to respond vocally enhances the feeling of inclusivity. The energy transferred between Frampton and his audience is palpable, creating a sense of shared experience that goes beyond merely listening to music. While *Frampton Comes Alive!* is primarily known as a guitar-centric rock album, it also symbolizes the power of live music as a communal event. The era it emerged from saw many artists releasing live albums, but few achieved the same level of cohesion and success. This album cemented the idea that a live recording could not only complement studio efforts but in some cases, surpass them in popularity. The album’s influence extends beyond its sales figures. It shaped the way live albums were perceived, setting a high standard for recording quality and performance intensity. The iconic use of the talk box influenced many guitarists in the decades that followed, making it a widely recognized tool in rock music. #### Cultural and Historical Context *Frampton Comes Alive!* came out at a time when live albums were beginning to gain traction as essential releases for rock artists. The 1970s saw bands like The Allman Brothers Band, Deep Purple, and The Who releasing live albums that captured their onstage energy. Frampton’s record, however, stood out due to its accessibility and pop-rock appeal. His youthful charisma and radio-friendly tracks such as "Show Me the Way" and "Baby, I Love Your Way" made the album more approachable than some of the heavier or more experimental live releases of that period. It also arrived during a period of changing attitudes toward rock stars. The 1970s marked a shift from the idea of the "untouchable" rock star to a more relatable, accessible image, and Frampton’s boyish good looks and friendly demeanor fit this new archetype. He wasn't just a virtuoso; he was a musician with whom the audience could connect on a personal level. The album's massive success epitomized the era's fascination with capturing the "real" and spontaneous side of rock music. #### Pros of *Frampton Comes Alive!* 1. **Guitar Work**: The album is a masterclass in guitar performance. Frampton’s melodic phrasing and technical proficiency, especially with the talk box, are standout features. 2. **Live Energy**: The production captures the vitality and energy of Frampton's live performances, making the listener feel part of the experience. 3. **Variety in Sound**: The album showcases Frampton's range, covering different rock styles from blues-rock jams to pop-oriented tracks. 4. **Production Balance**: The live production achieves a balance between rawness and clarity, which was not easily accomplished at the time. 5. **Cultural Impact**: It set a new standard for live albums and influenced how live music was recorded and perceived in the industry. #### Cons of *Frampton Comes Alive!* 1. **Lyrical Simplicity**: While heartfelt, the lyrics lack the depth or sophistication found in the work of contemporaries such as Bob Dylan or Joni Mitchell. They serve their purpose but do not elevate the album’s artistic merit. 2. **Repetitiveness**: Some tracks, especially extended jams like "Do You Feel Like We Do," may feel repetitive to listeners who prefer concise compositions. The improvisation, while dynamic, might not appeal to everyone. 3. **Audio Quality Limitations**: Although impressive for a 1976 live recording, some moments suffer from minor audio quality issues, particularly in the lower frequencies. This detracts slightly from the overall polish. 4. **Overemphasis on Guitar**: As a guitar-centric album, it sometimes prioritizes instrumental sections over lyrical content and secondary instrumentation. While this appeals to guitar enthusiasts, it may leave others wanting a fuller sound or more vocal prominence. 5. **Overexposure of Key Tracks**: Songs like "Baby, I Love Your Way" and "Show Me the Way" became so overplayed on radio that they lost some of their initial charm and freshness. This overexposure might affect the modern listener's enjoyment. #### Legacy and Influence The album’s success not only made Peter Frampton a household name but also influenced the music industry. It demonstrated that live albums could achieve the same commercial success as studio recordings, paving the way for future releases from artists like Cheap Trick (*At Budokan*) and Nirvana (*MTV Unplugged in New York*). Frampton’s innovative use of the talk box on *Frampton Comes Alive!* left a lasting imprint on guitar playing, influencing a range of musicians from Joe Walsh to Slash. The idea of a live album as a definitive artistic statement took root partly due to the success of this record. It also solidified the notion that the energy of a live concert could be harnessed in a format that felt authentic and engaging for home listeners. #### Conclusion *Frampton Comes Alive!* remains a cornerstone in the history of live rock albums. Its combination of exceptional guitar work, live atmosphere, and iconic tracks helped redefine what a live album could be. While it has some lyrical and audio quality limitations, its influence on both musicians and the music industry at large is undeniable. Peter Frampton captured lightning in a bottle with this release, setting a benchmark for live recordings and leaving an enduring legacy. Despite being a product of its time, the album still resonates with those who appreciate live music's spontaneity and raw energy. Its historical significance and musical quality ensure that *Frampton Comes Alive!* retains its place as a classic rock staple.
I usually object to live albums on this list, but this is the only album I know by Peter Frampton. Show Me The Way Baby, I Love Your Way Do You Feel Like We Do
Lots of nostalgic classics, just not my kind of sound
Not exactly my jam. But a solid listen all around. Good vibes.
Good one
Classic and iconic live album. I've heard the popular selections from this album many times on the radio over the years. I have always liked these tunes and Frampton's work in Humble Pie as well. Reasonably well-recorded and mastered with good sound overall for a live album. A great listen.
Good songs played well. I wouldn't choose to listen to this over a studio recorded album but that's just me. 4/5
Fun album. Really sounds like they’re having a good time, and the music kicks ass in a chill kind of way
Great live album
Not a huge fan of live albums, but this was pretty good. Having a few recognizable songs that seem to be better than the studio versions gives it a boost in stars for me.
Tras muchos años sin oirlo, descubro que es un gran directo.
This is a great show. Big fan of the hits, especially the closer. I wasn’t super wowed by the rest but still super solid. He can play a guitar.
PETER finds bis jz eifsch sehr normal, coll aber nöd meh show me the way het sehr en coole ahfang es liit sicher au ah minere müedigkeit, aber s isch eifach "na schön" aber hautmi nöd um baby I love your way meeegaa cute oke s het es paar eig easy cuti lieder okay ja han sehr wenig dezue gschribe, finds jz nüt mega krasses aber doch schöni lieder, wo mite ziit nur besser werded plus ich lieb live albe
Legend. Hits are stronger than the rest, but it’s all good stuff.
Awesome. Will listen to this again.
Frampton Comes Alive is one of the successful live albums of all time, and the most successful album of Frampton's career. Prior to Comes Alive, Frampton had released four solo albums, which met with limited success. This is a double album of live version of songs from the first four albums. This is a great collection of songs, played by a seasoned performer with a strong voice and reasonable guitar skills. The remarkable success of this album made Frampton a star, and made popular anthems of some of the songs, like "Do You Feel Like I Do?" and "Show Me The Way."
solid album with mixed emotions
Sure, it's overexposed cheese. But heck if it isn't syrupy as hell. Inoffensive ear-worms, solid pop craft, and the Heil Talkbox. It's hard to deny Frampton Comes Alive.
Perhaps too much of the same, but it's undeniable that this is one of the best live guitar recordings.
It’s not hard to understand why this is one of the best-selling live albums of all time. Frampton is an excellent guitarist and most of his repertoire is harmless - which is also his weakness. There are some stone cold classics along the way and ending on this legendary rendition in “Do You Feel Like We Do” is masterful. It’s not enough to fully forgive the cover of “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” but it’s close.
Classic.
Yeah definitely enjoyed this more than I expected.
The songs are hit and miss for me, and his fans and I are obviously getting different things from his music. I was pretty confused why, after an incredibly boring soft rock tune, the crowd burst into uproarious applause like he'd just walked on for an encore or something. Seriously, they went nuts like it was Stairway to Heaven or Freebird or something. That said, Frampton is an exceptional musician. Great singing and great guitar playing. Even though it wasn't for me, I can't in good conscience give it lower than 4 stars.
Surpreendentemente é um disco ao vivo coeso e demonstra toda a qualidade das guitarras que eu nem esperava.
A live album without any filler, that's crazy! Really good stuff and had some great songs. My favorite was, "Baby, I Love Your Way". One of the best live albums 4/5.
Sick live album. Really like it and will probably listen again. Do you feel like we do was an awesome ending. 4 stars
Absolute guitar shredder. Peter Frampton is one of those artists where I have heard their songs a million times, but I couldn't really name a Peter Frampton song. I feel like live albums are always going to get a half star bump.
An album I have always heard of but never listened to fully. This lived up to the hype as Frampton was balling out live. Much heavier guitar in parts than I was expecting which I am here for. I'm sure that this was an amazing performance to see live.
I want a talk box. Bumped this up from 3.5 into 4 territory good job Pete.
Baby, I Love Your Way was the worst part of the album. I can dig it, though.
Рок 70-ых. Ооочень душевный, приятный, хотя музыка не моя. Лишь местами есть цепляющие композиции. Гитарные инструменталы здоровские.
Probably one of the best live albums ever recorded.
A good album, really enjoyed it
I still don't think there should be live albums on the list. However, this is easily his most famous and successful album, and the prototype for the phenomenon, so the one that absolutely needs to be here! Far from flawless, but enjoyable and fun, and clearly a hell of a good gig
This is an awesome album that obviously was Peter Frampton‘s defining moment. I love this album and have a personal connection to the song baby I love your Way. 4.5/5
The tube in his mouth was a fashion statement
Not a big fan of this live album, but I did enjoy a lot of the tracks. 3.5
4.25
Good for a live album
Everybody in the world has Frampton Comes Alive. If you lived in the suburbs you were issued it. It came in the mail with samples of Tide
I saw Frampton open for Journey in like 2001. He was so cool even then. Such a fun classic album and chock full of great songs. Almost made the 5 cut.
Not as good when not smoking bongs in college while listening. Show Me the Way, Shine On, Do You Feel Like I Do. All classics. Killer guitar work (including voice box guitar) from the former Humble Pie front man. Bob Mayo slays it on the keys.
Frampton’s brand of soft rock isn’t really my thing, but this is a pretty fantastic live album. The performances are great, and the mixing is so clear and precise throughout - there is enough audience noise to inject every song with some more energy but nothing important gets drowned out
Ah. “Frampton Comes Alive” - omnipresent in parent’s record collections, charity shops and second hand record stores when I was young. I went into this expecting to not like it or not get it. But actually I quite enjoyed it! I’m not sure if I should be embarrassed about that! It makes me nostalgic for the Simpsons episodes when young Homer meets Marge in the seventies - a time I never really experienced myself! It makes me think of the Frank Zappa live stuff, but without the irony, or of Led Zeppelin’s live concert video - but a much much much less heavy and mystical version. “Light Zeppelin” if you will - lighter in music, tone, lyrics everything. Frampton seems very “nice” and I can see why this would be in the pop charts at the time. This is like, a 3.5 for me. I enjoyed it more than a 3 star album I would forget about. But it’s not really a 4 that’s almost but not quite a classic. I’m going to give it 4 though. Just because I think it’s better than 3 and I really like the guitar playing.
I'm not really here for Frampton. Yeah, yeah, the talk box is great, and his guitar work is flawless. The backup band was absolutely on fire here. Can we just admit that we're here to stand witness to the phenomenal engineering and recording that those absolute wizard sound techs performed to make a live album sound as good as this?
Fun
Another pleasant surprise. I'm so glad I use this app :)
pretty good, 3.5
This is such a great record. Frampton is a fantastic guitarist, a really solid songwriter, and a beast of a performer. There's very little I can point to here as a negative, honestly. It's a bit dared (understandably) but it's still really solid.
This is a 3.75. Great for a live album - excellent quality. There are songs everyone knows, the other songs are decent to good, and there is really tasty guitar playing here.
Had no preconceptions going into this, so was pleasantly surprised. Nothing that I didn’t enjoy, but Show Me The Way and Baby, I Love Your Way were particularly good.
Enjoyed this. 4.
4.5
Liked it a lot!! Great live album with some hits
Really rocking live album. That closer song is just one wild ride. Hadnt heard peter frampton but i get the hype.
This shit has some bangers. Imagine no one believing in you until they saw you live tho
I really dug this. This is why I’m doing this challenge. Never would have listened to this in my own, but so glad I did.
I like most of the songs, I think it's prefer the studio versions though. I'll have to check out more from this guy. 4/5
This was a solid rock album made more fun by being Live. Frampton shows off his guitar skills while being good enough singing to not take away from the music. This feels like it definitely inspired acts like Dave Matthew's Band that lean into the live performance part of their act more than the studio album aspect. Some of the songs are classics like Show Me The Way and Baby, I Love Your Way. One I could see myself returning to for future listening.
Good album 👍 Frampton and company know how to put on a show.
amazing album cover. and very fun.
Very good! Didn’t realize I would know songs because I didn’t recognize his name. Learn new things every day
Frampton live. Killer. The raw sound of this is wild compared to a lot of the live albums now a days. You can feel the age and it makes it electric.
Listened on vinyl
One of the great concert albums! First time i had heard of Peter Frampton was songs from this album.
Synes det var ret funky, voicw box og alt muligt. Ikke nogen sange der for alvor sprang ud, men koncentrerede mig heller ikke ordentligt. Har fortjent endnu et lyt
Solid live album. Very long. Some big hits and other good songs.
I really enjoyed the album. It was very melodic rock. High 3 or even 4* ?
4/5 that was a nice one!!
Great concert album. The performance is on the very high level to the last minute. I hope to find more albums like this on the list.
Really good live album, worth listening to as a package. Wish I had listened in one sitting.
Peter Frampton is definitely dad car music for me. Typically I don't really like listening to live albums that much but I did really like this one..
This is a great album. Not much else to say.
Very "Dad rock", liked it a lot. Also why I like this list, an album I'd probably never have listened to, and not heard of Peter Frampton before this.
Enjoyed the album. Frampton had some classics I was aware of but unaware who sang them (baby i love your way), favorite was probably do you feel like we do.
Some of the songs sound very 90s despite this being recorded in the 70s. Classic live album, really enjoyed.
It's a great recording of music that translates well live. There's a really good energy about this entire album, even when certain tracks aren't that great. There aren't many live albums that have multiple tracks that still get regular radio airplay. That's pretty impressive.
I enjoy when he makes the guitar talk
Fun album! Very jam bandy. But not really my favorite style. I’m sure Thai would have been an amazing album to be at. And I’m sure sing Frampton live would have been awesome! You can hear/feel the energy in the album from the audience.
Cool live album. Must of been a great show. 4 stars
generous 4 but not a 3
Solid live album. A couple gems. Wouldn't mind checking out the studio album. Don't care for the cover of Jumping Jack Flash
Rating: 8.5/10 Great live album. A lot of fun to listen to, plenty of energy from Peter Frampton and the rest of the band. Really enjoyed the vast majority of songs, Frampton plays guitar with charisma and character which is translated well in a live setting. Most songs were very groovy, a few were boring though. Favorite songs: Doobie Wah, Show Me The Way, Baby I Love Your Way, I Wanna Go To The Sun, Penny For Your Thoughts, (I'll Give You) Money, Jumping Jack Flash, Do You Feel Like We Do. Least favorite songs: All I Want To Be, Wind Of Change.
Good vibes
Do you u feel like I do? soo good guitar Ill Give you money.... guitar and drums amazing and this was live years ago. What a show!!!!
Just an absolute classic album, probably the definitive “live” album because 3 hit singles that get tons of radio play came from this album. So the live versions of the songs are actually better known than the studio versions. This album is a lot of fun to listen to, nice easy going 70s rock that verges between soft rock and some harder hitting guitar riffs. The hits are hits for a reason, but nothing holds a candle to “Do You Feel Like We Do” an absolute banger of a jam at 13+ minutes. Such a strong way to close out the live album and just encapsulates that vibe of the whole record.
The only reason this doesn't get a 5 is because it's a live album and I didn't get in the game for live albums Everything on this album slaps, but the last track is one of the best things I've ever heard 4/5
Oyendo de nuevo el 17 de Junio del 2025 porque nunca lo reitié en el 2023 ni dejé notas. 1. Rock and roll, like de movie 70so reaching 80's. Not great to my taste tho' 2. Fun, no fue memorable pero un par de listens más y lo sería. 3. Fun, cool. Not memorable. 4. Same as before. Generally same vibe so far. Good rock and roll 5. All I Want To Be (Is By Your Side). Cool one, loving it. Acoustic tho' 6. Wind of Change. Acoustic, cute. Not memorable. 7. Gayer, didn't enjoy much. Skipped ending 8. Calidad, intro calidad but epic guitar solo! 9. Interlú, good... 10. (I'll Give You) Money. Cool, raw and great solo again! 11. Mid, cool, not memorable 12. Cool, nothing memorable either 13. Lines on my face. Beautiful intro. Weakened a bit. Alto solo again. 14. Cool, que buenos solos se lanza el pana. Great keyboard solo too. Getting more epic! More guitar solo, calidad af. *Crowd keeps going nuts* Shiitt, nasty guitar tone solo! Epic fucking ending with lots of solos. Amazing outro indeed! Best tema of the album easily. Le doy el 4!
One of those albums that makes its way into every rock fan's collection. And deservedly so.
Peter Frampton did come alive in this live album. Although this was a live album, it had studio-grade quality. And although the quality was very good, there was also energy and passion which comes from live performances. Overall, a very strong performance which has aged well.
- I came into this album disappointed it was another live album - But I was WRONG, really enjoyed the positive vibes from Peter - Show Me the Way is a yacht rock classic - so is Baby, I Love Your Way!
No doubt that this record is an absolute classic but I’m not so sure it belongs on this list (or any live record).
Surprised with how much I enjoyed this. Going to give it a generous 4 because I really enjoyed the last track, particularly the crowds silly excitement when he used the voice box.
This album and Kiss Alive! were fixtures in my house growing up. I think they both changed the game in terms of the potential for live albums to be more than just padding to fill in the time between studio LPs. It's really interesting that this was Frampton's breakthrough album after four studio albums. I can't think of another band where a live album was the album that really put them on the map. I really don't know much of Frampton from either before or after this album. Musically, it's been interesting to listen to this again all these years later. I think it still holds up pretty well. Frampton is a great guitarist. The talk-box innovation was mind-blowing back in the 70s, less so now but still pretty cool. 4 stars.
Rock.
The stats behind this album are WILD, especially since it’s a live album. I really loved listening to this, but some of these lyrics did not age well - see “It’s a Plain Shame.”
I can't help it, I'm a sucker for a talk box, so Show Me The Way and Do You Feel Like We Do stand out a lot to me. Overall this is a good rock album that also knows how to get acoustic and funky. I think some of the songs here passed me by a little, but generally this was great. Favourite: Do You Feel Like We Do
Fort bon live. Je connaissais de nom l'artiste et l'album sans les avoir trop écouté, content d'avoir rattrapé ça. Ça me fait penser aux lives de Rory Gallagher (sans atteindre le même niveau quand même).
You caught me in a good mood Petey Boy
I've never heard this, but I do know the songs. So, probably better than I imagined. 4/5
Live albums are always a toss up. This one was recorded in a very mediocre way, except for the guitar and vocals, by far the most important aspects of Frampton. This version of "Baby, I Love Your Way" is one of the most classics and a great listen. Frampton was an amazing guitar player and a pretty decent singer. If he had a studio album on here it would be so much easier to judge the total sound, but Frampton's playing shines through.
Peter Frampton knows how to have a good time
Some truly great songs on here
A bit long, but some very nice songs
Delightful! Glad it was a double album. Think “Lines on My Face” is my favorite. 3.75/5 (rounding up)
Great live album.
Great sounding band and the definitive version of these great songs. He had a great voice and is a great guitar player. Of the few great live albums, this is one of the few true greats.
i really like this! could only find the live album on spotify but definitely added to the vibe. the guitar solos are incredible!!!!
I’ve heard so much about this album, it’s a legend.
Very good
4.3 - Incomparably warm, like sitting in a favorite armchair in front of the fire late Christmas Eve sipping on scotch, surrounded by loved ones with the dog curled up at your slippered feet. The way the band and the audience feed off each others’ energy is spectacular. Great songs and terrific guitar work (solo on “It’s A Plain Shame”, “Penny For Your Thoughts”). “Do You Feel…” catapults this live performance to legendary status (don’t overlook the incredible keyboard solo around 4:30). Oh yeah, and vocoder!!
Nice album!
i know a lot of people don’t enjoy live albums, but i do. you get a certain energy that you don’t necessarily get listening to a studio album. peter frampton really delivers on this album, and it’s no wonder that it is one of the biggest selling live albums of all time. frampton’s music is unique in that most people’s introduction to him is through a live song, not a studio song. i know my first exposure to him was that. very enjoyable listen.
I wasn't able to listen to all of this. I actually own this vinyl. I don't like live music on an album. That being said, it's a really good album.
Peter Frampton a bien surpris son monde en rejoignant le club des baiseurs de gueule de ce générateur.
Greatest live album ever....
Not really a big fan of live albums truth be told. This wasn’t too bad honestly just a bunch of rock songs at the end of the day Saved tracks: Show Me The Way, Baby I Love Your Way, Shine On, Lines On My Face
It starts kind of slow but it grows on you. This is a nice solid live album that I ended up enjoying.
This album is somehow both hard rock and easy listening. It totally rocks but man, it's also got this easy-breezy, laidback style. This is my first listen but its reputation precedes it. I've heard radio DJs and other people who were college-age when it came out say the words "Frampton Comes Alive" with a wistful tone, like something magic happened in the room once when they played it. After listening to it, I get it. It's bedroom baby-making music, hang out with your friends music and backyard BBQ rock all rolled into one. I definitely plan on playing this one more.
Blast from the past
Enjoyable live album. I haven't really listened to much Frampton but I think I can confidently give this a 4
I forget what a great guitarist Frampton is. Fun to hear it in a live venue.
Catchy music. Found myself tapping my foot a few times. Don't like live albums. Pretty good overall.
Always thought of him as an average 80s rocker, but I enjoyed the hell out of this live album. Doobie Wah was very fub
When I saw Frampton live his strap snapped and his guitar fell and broke his toe. 4 stars.
Doyoufeeeel. Consistent throughout with a few bangers sprinkled in
Really good live album
Loved it
3.5
Classic live album.
I love this album it’s very good. High 4 almost 5
Definitely a pleasurable listen, though certainly does grow a bit long.
Already listen
Let the guitar do the talking.
Really liked this album, apart from the last song that went on for too long and was annoying
My mom loves Peter Frampton and had this play a lot, but I will always associate him with the Lollapalooza episode of The Simpsons. But in all honesty, this is decent, if overplayed classic rock, and he sure can shred. Not 100% my thing but I can appreciate it every now and the . B-?
It certainly evokes a summer evening rock concert. Though the sound is a bit mushy (I find it harder to find the melody in the soungs), it doesn't sound dated. I really enjoyed hearing good guitar solos again... and without any duds... just some killer tracks and other fun atmosphere to soak up. Really cool.
One of the all-time great live albums. Not without filler: the Jumping Jack Flash cover is pretty unnecessary - but generally a nice rock romp.
As a little kid the family would get together every few weeks at my older cousins' house and they had a killer collection of records (to my 6yr old eyes at least). There would be a lull in playing outside or an hour to kill and for one summer I would do the same thing each time: ask someone to hook me up with the cool headphones with the 10' curly cord and put on Frampton Comes Alive and I would listen in solitude. I never actually owned the album, just listened for hours upon hours to it each family gathering. It's too easy decades later to dismiss this album as simple classic or even corporate rock (whatever that means which is nothing other than popular) but this was different - how else could a previously mostly little known solo artist suddenly release a live album and sell 187 quibillion copies of it. It seems to have just hit every box at the time and from my admittedly foggy childhood memory these songs were all OVER the radio. Not sure about hilites other than ... the talkbox. Truth: that was probably the biggest initial draw for a little kid so "Do You Feel..." has to top anything else - the perfect concert and album closer here. Prior to today I don't know if I've even considered listening to this album in the last ...30? years - just have slowly tired of a lot of guitar or classic rock but it's very cool how feelings come back immediately just hearing it. In headphones obviously. In retrospect it's not earth shattering on its own, but does it have to be? It was and is a document of the time - it sounds great, is a fun rock record and the live aspect of it puts it over the top. 8/10 4 stars
This was a classic and played at every party back in the day. Frampton brought the talk box to the masses with this one. He was also a good guitar player. The jam in the 12th minute (post talk box) of “Do You Feel …” shows they really know to play and are tight.
Good.
For some reason, Peter Frampton and Peter Gabriel have always been the same person in my mind. Clearly, that sounds nonsensical because it frankly is. Looking at the track list, the only song I recognise is one covered by somebody else. Songs I already knew: Baby I Love Your Way (but the Big Mountain version) Favourites: Doobie Wah, Baby I Love Your Way I’m sure most people would agree that live albums are generally nowhere as good as studio albums. In general, I’d only really bother with a live album if I was already a big fan of a band. However, this album is an anomaly to that rule. The energy from the band is palpable, and a good set of headphones can make you feel part of the crowd. The music is energy filled rock and is easy to enjoy. The use of the voice box with the guitar is different enough to keep your attention. Overall, I’d recommend this album to any rock fans, regardless of your preconceptions of live albums.
Disco de rock con un buen guitarrista a la voz y canciones con ritmo y nada pesadas. Dan ganas de conocerle más en profundidad
Bra energi och instumentals.
OOOOOH BABY I LOVE THE WAY
A very good album, especially for a live album. I’d definitely give it another listen - excellent guitar and backing music and creative use of a talk box
Some wicked good all-time classics here. They've stood the test of time which is why I give it four stars. I saw him live once, wasn't as good as the album.
Didn't know Peter had such intense rock, thought he was more of a chill guy. Good stuff.
I never really listened to much of Peter Frampton's stuff until today, so I was unsure of what to expect. What I got was a high energy, rockin' live album. I knew a few of his hits off of this album, but most of it was new to me. A few things of note: 1) the stripped down bass groove in Doobie Wah is awesome, 2) the acoustic set in the middle of the concert, which included All I Want to Be (Is By Your Side) & Wind of Change was a nice touch. 3) the little guitar solo track called Penny For Your Thoughts was awesome (some amazing guitar skills showed off on this one) 4) I could have done without the 4 minute talk box solo on Do You Feel Like We Do. A talk box is cool if it just adds a flair to a song, but in a long drawn out solo, it becomes kind of annoying. Overall, a great album. The crowd was electric, and I can only imagine how cool it would have been to be there. Favourite songs: Show Me The Way, "Baby, I Love Your Way", (I'll Give You) Money, Something's Happening, Doobie Wah, Penny For Your Thoughts Least favourite songs: I Wanna Go To The Sun, Wind of Change, Lines on My Face, Jumping Jack Flash 4/5
Well it’s a classic, innit?
The album it's unnecessary long but I can understand that is because it's a concert. At some point it could get boring, however the style of the concert makes this less probable, it starts with a shot of energy and then introduces an acoustic song and next a song with more energy, that's the formula of this particular album.
One of the greatest live albums ever. Frampton brings life to his studio works in this classic. 4.5
Relaxing listen, would maybe have on in the background of an unlively pub, overall still enjoyable
That amazing, full-length Do You Feel Like I Do is enough. The rest is gravy.
Didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did
This is an evergreen album. Glad to listen it every time!
My 17 year old self would give this 5 stars for sure, I loved this album at one time. However I don't have the same affinity I once did. It's very good but great.
There’s a reason this record was massive when it came out: it’s just a great live rock record. Frampton has a great voice and certainly can craft a well put together song. And that talk box 😄!
A very good live album, with crowd energy helping it out. Lots of fun listening to this one.
Very electric live album!
Pretty classic album. I remember when this was the biggest album on planet Earth. 4/5
1976 was a weird place, musically; disco was tightening its grip, punk was an inconceivable thought, hip-hop was still in its nascent phase and the lone rock representative to conquer the world was a guitar player with dashing good looks that, after many trials and errors, gave us an album that was a greatest hits album in live performance mode. It had to be Peter, for Frampton Comes Alive! is the perfect capsule into who and what he stands for as a musician. Deep cuts and pop gems combine to make a tantalizing package that leaves little to the imagination when it came to its slow but eventual dominance. Favorites: Doobie Wah, Show Me the Way, It's a Plain Shame, All I Want to Be (Is By Your Side), Baby, I Love Your Way, I Wanna Go to the Sun, (I'll Give You) Money, Do You Feel Like We Do.
Great live album
A fun listen!
Amazing energy as a guitarist and performer. The demonstration he needed to show the strength of the songs in longer and less inhibited format.
fun but this sure was the live versions
Some really great moments. "Jumping Jack Flash" for blues, "Baby I Love Your Way" for pop/rock. Much of it though is a bit too down the middle to make a stronger statement. The album also suffers the same fate as so many live albums. If you were there, the feelings are intensified. If you weren't (like virtually all listeners younger than 60), it's just a standard classic rock album with inferior recording and extra long vamps. Do you feel like I feel?
Mola, pero se hace largo.
Like.
You know what? I was into this. Solid rock, very entertaining.
A good ole time.
Aangenaam live-album. Duidelijk een steengoede muzikant die het publiek mee krijgt
Rating: 7/10 Best songs: Show me the way, Baby,I love your way
Kolejny zywy album, dodatkowo lekkie deja vu, bo niby na liscie nie bylo jeszcze pana Framptona, to czuje sie jakbym juz tego sluchal, ale jakos w pozytywnym znaczeniu, bo wedlug last fma z dyskografii framptona przerobilem jedynie debiutancki wind of change i krazek zatytulowany frampton, ktory akurat poprzedza dzisiejszy pick, wiec sporo z tamtej plyty mozna uslyszec tutaj, stad pewnie to uczucie, tak czy inaczej solidny odsluch, bo prawie 80 minut porzadnego arenowego rockowania, tak jak wczoraj bylo granie barowe tak dzisiaj jest cos z wieksza iloscia publicznosci, nie bede sie rozpisywal, bo wydaje mi sie jakbym juz kiedys to robil, az tak ulozone mam w glowie zdanie o muzyce tego pana, ktory jest nie tylko utalentowanym multiinstrumentalista, ktory na tym nagraniu uzywa glownie gitary, ale jest takze charyzmatyczna persona w swiecie rocka
Definitely a product of its time that still holds up. This album was beyond huge when it was released, ruling the charts for almost 2 years. Fun fact: I got to see Peter Frampton open for Steve Miller in 2018. Frampton covered "Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden in a huge tribute to Chris Cornell, and of course played the three big hits from this album. It should have been the other way around. Steve Miller should have been opening up for the legendary Peter Frampton.
Hahaha classic
“Frampton Comes Alive!” needs to come with the 1001 disclaimer of a live album that unfairly essentially serves as a greatest hits, and isn’t even from one live performance. But it is a really notable album and the one that really put Peter Frampton on the map. The talk-box has also become part of Frampton’s signature, and even though it is gimmicky and was only used sparingly on “Frampton Comes Alive!,” the talk-box solo on this epic version of “Do You Feel Like We Do” is pretty rad. Frampton generally delivers some quality classic rock, some excellent guitar playing, and perhaps the creation of yacht rock on “Baby, I Love Your Way.”
Ground-breaking. Electrifying. A great party.
Is Peter Frampton Yacht Rock? "Baby, I Love Your Way" screams Yacht Rock to me but the rest is fine classic rock.
I wouldn't regret going to the concert. 3.5
Good classic rock album, but considering its a live album its pretty amazing. sometimes I forgot it was live until I heard the crowd cheering again.
Doobie Wah is fun and smooth. Fairly enjoyable.
It has been more than 40 years since I put this album on a turntable and set back to listen to it. When it was released it was everywhere and Do You Feel Like I Do was the anthem that defined the year it was released. Well this was a very enjoyable stroll down memory lane. The songs hold up very very well, (Helped by the fact that the vinyl copy I have is almost dead quiet and sounds awesome. Tyîcal of A & M releases back in the day. There are a couple duds....Jumping Jack Flash is totally unnecessary and uninspired but the hilights are very high and Frampton's guitar playing always tasteful...something I appreciate more now than I did then. This is a fince 70s live album that has stood the test of time. 4.5 stars
Fuera de la que pasaban siempre en Universal, no conocía más rolas aunque la portada del disco sí. De hecho me parecía rara porque la cara del tipo no me cuadra del todo con la música y la guitarra que toca. De cualquier manera, me parece un buen disco en vivo, especialmente considerando la guitarra que él toca. Y aunque la rola más famosa es medio de hueva, la verdad es que otras del disco le hacen justicia. Por otro lado, de Frampton no conozco nada nada nada más. Ni siquiera estaba seguro si tal vez era exmiembro de otra banda o algo así y resulta que no, que todo su éxito fue como solista y que sigue vivo y sacando cosas.
Pretty electrifying as far as live albums go
Not bad dad rock
3.75
If I hadn't listened to this live album, I would have rated it much lower. However, listening to this album live, I understood Frampton as an artist and why he's so loved. "Do You Feel Like We Do" is 14 minutes of the guitar having its shine and let's also talk about "Jumping Jack Flash" which was a fun song to get just a glimpse of what it was like to see Frampton live. Thanks to the generator for letting me finally hear Peter Frampton and actually enjoy it. Standout songs: All I Want To Be (Is By Your Side), Jumping Jack Flash, Do You Feel Like We Do, Shine On.
Frampton Comes Alive has always intrigued me by the fact that the live versions of these (great) songs are the defacto versions....you never hear the studio versions anywhere. I need to go back and listen to the studio versions just to compare, but the album (and the use of the talk box) is great. Would have been a great show to see back in the day. 4/5
great live album. the talking pig made me want to learn to play the guitar when i was growing up.
Sick guitar solos but some of the lyrics were really really weird. Would listen to again.
Лирическая и спокойная музыка
Muito bom.
I understand that this live album was Frampton's breakthrough, but I really don't understand why some people prefer to hear live recordings over studio recordings. It's simply the inferior version to me. That said, even though I'd wish these were the same songs but in studio quality, I really like Peter Frampton and enjoyed listening to this album. While the studio versions might be 4.5 stars to me, this is still 3.5 stars. Rounding up because most other albums from last week were a lot worse than this one.
A great live performance demonstrating not just his soft rock specialties but his superb guitar playing proficiency.
Enjoyable live album that is full of typical classic rock music and also boasts a few "classics" that everybody has heard of or heard before. Being a live album it is rather long of course but overall still a good experience
A classic live album.
I really enjoy live albums and this one did not disappoint. Some classics that I already knew and found some new songs to love. Favourite songs: Show me the way, Baby I love your way, Do you feel like we do
Easygoing road trip rock. An easy 4/5 from "Baby, I Love Your Way" alone. gotta love the energy from the crowd too
Already listened to it
Not bad. I mostly just liked the hits that everyone has heard a million times but those were all very good. Giving this 4 stars but it's a low 4.
It is a great record filled with anthemic songs to sing out loud, at least that’s what you can tell by the people in that concert. In my case, I think I may need to listen to those songs often to let them grow on me.
Pretty dope album. Although outside of the 'hits' it doesn't make much of an impression. But the high points are very very high. Capping it off with 'Do You Feel Like We Do' is fantastic. 7/10
This was actually unexpectedly great for me. Was catching myself head-bopping multiple times.
Who doesn't have a specific memory or two about this album (if you are of the age). But a bit lackluster beyond the hits. "Tell me you or someone you know didn't have this album" Peter Griffin
Amazing album from an icon of R&B
Haven’t listened to this in a long time.
ooh baby
Just an extremely tight set. After reviewing Bob Dylan's "At Royal Albert Hall" immediately before this, this is a breath of fresh air. The crowd is super into it, and Frampton brings across a super bubbly, buoyant, and fun set. It doesn't break the mold or anything, just wonderful rock n' roll. Favorite tracks: "Show Me the Way", "All I Want to Be", "Baby, I Love Your Way"
4/5. Why’d he have to put “it’s a plain shame” on there? Coulda been next level
Great live album.
Very fun live album. Some obvious hits Ive heard a lot but enjoyed the whole thing
Good 70’s album rock - I like the guitars and several of the songs. Easy to listen to.
Better than I thought
That was fun! Penny for Your Thoughts made me so happy!
I've listened to this album many times, but probably not since the early 80s when my sister moved out of our house and took her album collection with her. Live albums aren't usually my jam as I generally prefer the cleaner sound of a studio recording. The crowd and background sounds are often distracting to me . Was that sound at the 0:55 mark in Wind of Change the sound of - a gunshot? balloon popping...? I quite enjoyed listening to this album though. It is well recorded and I enjoyed the 70s arena rock vibe. Even the 14 minutes of "Do You Feel Like We Do" didn't wear on me. Frampton's songs are solid 70s rock and he knows how to deliver them live. FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE! is easy to like as the big hits I am familiar with were actually from this album. There is an intensity Frampton's live performance brings that explains why this is one of the greatest live rock recordings.
Strong 4 stars. First disc - great. I had no idea that “show me the way” and “baby I love your way” were from this live album. Second disc - good. A lot of energy but I’m worn out by jumpin jack flash.
Great live performance by Peter Frampton! 3.5/5
More bangers
Definitely a high school hit album!!! I wore out the 8 track !!
Classic live album. Not my personal favorite, but a very significant album culturally
I liked it, good stuff. I've always heard of Peter Frampton but never listened. "Baby, I Love Your Way", along with a few other songs, were very familiar.
a classic. 70s rock for sure.
Phenomenal musicality. Was expecting more ear worms. But definitely an album if you want something funky and crowd-pleasing that's upbeat but not overbearing.
A real gem of a live album. Foot tapping, energetic, engaging.
Love it. Really great live album and makes me wanna listen to more of Frampton’s stuff.
Coming to realize I get tired of people who belt all their vocals. If everything’s at 11, nothing’s interesting and the brain just gets bored. It’s a shame because the guitar work is amazing
I don't think I'm smart enough for this album. The lyrics are basically poetry and the rhythms go way past standard 4/4. Due to Nick Drake being such a loner, he had no one else playing on this work, but he could have been huge if he could have collaborated with others. It's also why I can't rate it highly. Sure, pink moon is good and technically it is all good, but this is a 3.5 or a 7 out of 10. It just needs more and I don't think he had written his opus before he died. This was just a taste.
O álbum foi um tanto surpreendente, pelo facto de ser ao vivo, coisa que não é do meu agrado. Não conheço nada deste senhor nem sei que é nem o que toca, mas o álbum tinha uma boa energia e era divertido, o mal é que era demasiado longo pois a certo momento pois a sonoridade era muito parecida. A melhor música do álbum creio ser All I Want To Be (Is By Your Side) Nota: 7/10 Data: 15/05/2026
Baby, I love your way e Show me the way sao continuacoes uma da outra na minha cabeca (e ambas excelentes).
Excellente surprise !
I kinda liked this, should listen to more. Easy-listening but catchy.
Un disc que justifica una carrera. Cap més artista em ve al cap que tingui un doble en directe tan (merescudament) mític i en canvi cap dels discos en estudi estigui, ni de lluny, a l'alçada. Sigui com sigui, un disc a disfrutar al llarg de tota una vida
Great live album. Although - to be honest - I found it somewhat underwhelming overall this time around.
I've never really gotten into Peter Frampton, but this album was a fucking phenomenal live album! obviously it had a lot of top hits, but songs like "It's A Plain Shame" and "Shine On" were some songs i've never heard before but dug them!
Frampton's guitar work is so lovely. He sounds great live. Will seek out more
Rock n Roll |,,,| Funky, rocky, everything I'd want out of a live gig. Would have sounded cooler being there though
This record slaps so hard.
Great live album.
Nice live album. Will give this a few more listens. "Baby I love your way" as the biggest hit.
nice . i liked it
its cute, i liked it but it again, didn't feel very special
foi uma experiencia divertida. porém nao revisitaria o album. achei um rock mediano. divertido, legal de ouvir, mas nada de stunning. tem um solo bem bacana em ill give you money e a ultima faixa teve aquele talk box bem diferenciado. também reconheci "baby i love your way", conhecia da banda big mountain. nota 6,0
If you're a white man getting impatient about if you're gonna have grandkids, there's a chance you point to this record as your justification for live albums being a necessity. Speaking of the dad rock musical zeitgeist, does "Doobie Wah" just coincidentally share the opening riff of the Doobie Brother's "Listen To Te Music"? Does anyone else hear that? I'm not seeing any comment sections talking about it, no whosampled references. Surely I'm not the only one? The rest is all just fine. Earnest performances, a few household hits. Varied but normal instrumentation until he brings out the talkbox on the closing track, which was a revered, mythologized track in the house I grew up in. He might as well have been using magic to make the guitar speak like that. Though this listening experience bumped the record down a few pegs, there's nothing overtly bad about it. Decent writing that dries up after a bit, innovative guitar playing. Soft 3/5
This was pretty alright. I liked what GPT said about it being one of the first live albums. "is one of the big “live album as cultural event” records. It is not just on the list because Peter Frampton played well live; it is there because this album became absolutely massive and helped define the idea that a live record could be the definitive version of an artist." Of course I loved Show me the Way, Baby I Love Your Way. 3 stars.
Light 3,5
It’s fine and it’s cool that he came alive but how many live double albums do I have to hear before I die, really…….
