not my thing
Peter frampton is fun and a great guitarist so no complaints with this one!
Cool live album. Must of been a great show. 4 stars
I always felt there was a tendency for the qualities of tracks on live albums to be drowned out and lost in the noise, rarely do I find them living up to the same standards as their accompanying studio albums, but this is one of the exceptions. Penny For Your Thoughts is such a refreshing interlude, unexpected but appreciated. Jumping Jack Flash is also a great track with a killer solo towards the end, surprised it isn't more popular. Do You Feel Like We Do is a 14-minute finisher, excellent solos from Bob Mayo on keyboard and Hammond, great track to end.
generous 4 but not a 3
The gimmick of the talking guitar almost masks how solid the performance is. Listen to the audience just loving it. I don't think there's a lot of poetry going on here but everyone playing and listening is all about it. Huge fan of the energy. I don't know what I'd rate this if it wasn't a live album, but it being one adds so much. Finishing with Do You Feel Like We Do makes the album. The whole talking part going into that crazy breakdown and the crowd explodes. I can see so many people hearing this and deciding to start a band.
Solid live album. A couple gems. Wouldn't mind checking out the studio album. Don't care for the cover of Jumping Jack Flash
Thrift stores around the world weep at the thought of one more Frampton Comes Alive record.
classic album -- 4.6
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.
Here’s the thing—I find much of this album rather boring, Frampton’s voice rather limited, and the choice to fade in and out tracks questionable on a live album. Yet, Frampton’s guitar solos are skilled and the use of the talk box is fun. It also does boast a couple bonafide classic track. I’ve vacillated between giving this album 2 or 3 stars, and I think I must give it 3 (thinking of it more as a 2.5 rounded up). I don’t intend to listen to it again, but I certainly wouldn’t turn off the radio just because they were playing one of these songs.
Good vibes
Awesome album that I remember well from my freshman year of high school
Underligt at det her er så berømt! Lyder som alt andet generisk 70'er rock
Jeg er ikke særlig stor fan af klassiske rock live albums i første omgang, har meget sjældent den der følelse af at blive transporteret, det er som regel en second hand oplevelse. Den her blev kun mere uinteressant af at jeg ikke kendte nogen af sangene og det ikke rigtig er min stil. Skip
Virkelig ikke særlig meget mig. Men så fandt jeg da også ud af hvem der skrev "Oh, baby i love you so" 🤷
Ça va c'est du bon rock sans plus ni moins
Only had a chance to listen once. Not a lot of the live energy was captured, but I’d be willing to listen again to give it a more thorough evaluation. 3/5 for now
Peter Frampton, of no particular fame whatsoever, had this live album as his breakout hit. I have no idea why or how, but it landed on the Billboard 200 and stayed at number 1 for ten consecutive weeks. Did somebody grease the palms of radio execs or was there just a few slow weeks in 1976? Either way, Frampton Comes Alive sold a gazillion copies and now it's the most popular live record in the used bins of record stores across America. Behold: a double album no one asked for. Highlights include the talkbox. That's about it. Most of this album is tied up in boring, unremarkable 70's rock. This includes a particularly unnecessary cover of Jumping Jack Flash.
Peter Frampton makes great music, Doobie Waah off this album was the highlight for me. But God it being a noisy ass live album made this a slog to get through.
Pretty good live album
Nice one
Nope
Yeah I discovered this about 20 years ago, probably spinning off from the Dazed and Confused soundtrack albums. I'd seen the Simpsons episode much earlier and had no idea who he was. Also that poo reggae cover of Baby I Love Your Way in the early 90s. Much later I learned he was working with Bowie during his career nadir in the 80s, Never Let Me Down/Glass Spider tour. Back then I loved Do You Feel Like We Do. Not particularly for the talking guitar but for the whole jam. The rest of the (long) set is kind of so so, a few other decent songs, mainly Show Me the Way, but largely just competent, inoffensive 70s rock. None of which I really needed to hear again but also didn't make me want to turn it off. Absolutely arrow straight down the middle of the road.
Somehow he still maintains a cheese factor in my head.
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
Well I really enjoyed this record.
Frampton's not really my thing, but this was fine.
Man, I cannot stand Peter Frampton. He annoys the heck outta me.
- lighthearted rock music - I don’t like that it’s live - pretty boring in general tbh - I like and recognize baby I love your way - ok some songs have non boring parts
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!
Live albums are great if you like band that's playing.
This is great for what it is, but I feel like I've heard the hits more than enough for my lifetime, and the rest is good and well-played, but mostly not my style. A little too soft-rocky, maybe.
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.
- enjoyed this way more than I thought I would tbh - couple of songs had cool guitar that really stood out - (I'll Give You) Money - Enjoyable listen
- 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!
3.5 not a bad album
This is a live album where the embellishments - with exception - are lean, and the concert setting enhances the music. Each track is a Standout.
No doubt that this record is an absolute classic but I’m not so sure it belongs on this list (or any live record).
Show Me The Way // Baby, I Love Your Way //
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.
He’s not going to eat all that watermelon 🍉
Una traccia l'avevo sicuramente già sentita prima, la più bella. Le altre meh
Great live album
This album is basically 77 minutes of Peter Frampton just jamming on guitar. In his defense, he shreds. The downside is that it’s not particularly interesting to me, and is excruciatingly long. I can see the appeal, just not really for me. It’s interesting that this is basically the key piece of output from his career, and it’s a live album. The energy is pretty good on it, but live albums are tough. There’s a couple of great songs on here. Baby, I Love Your Way is iconic. As a whole it’s just fine though, I was ready for something else pretty quickly. The last song was a bit of a banger, I’ll give it that. Favorite song: Baby, I love Your Way Other: Show Me The Way, Penny For Your Thoughts, Jumping Jack Flash, Do You Feel Like We Do
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.
Ganska trist - 2/5
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.”
This album is part of the soundtrack of my late teenage years. A superb piece of music.
Exactly what this list needed, more mediocre, live rock music from England in the 70s. Yawn
Guoguoguoguoguooo I want you show me the way
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
de unaaaa!!! 7.5/10
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).
Bof bof, bien mais sans plus. J'ai l'impression que ça usurpe un peu sa place sur la liste. L'impression d'un petit gloubi boulga du rock des années 70, avec les influences heavy metal, funk, etc. Sur les reprises comme Jumping jack flash on se dit qu'on est quand même assez loin de l'original...
Better than expected given that it’s live, but 1 hour 46 minutes was more than I needed
You caught me in a good mood Petey Boy
Yeah it's all good, but another live album
tito and dad hits
Vad har jag sagt, jag vill inte ha några liveplattor ifall de inte heter 101.
white flag, couldn’t get through it. congrats on the historical significance but this isn’t reaching me at all.
A great live album. Exceeded my low expectations.
Pretty good live album.
Don't really see why this one landed a spot on the list. 2
Rock music works in mysterious ways sometimes. For whatever reason, Frampton Comes Alive is the biggest selling live album of all time. Peter Frampton had previously released a handful of decent, but unspectacular records in the early 70's, so it's success seemed to come out of nowhere. Almost everyone I knew owned this double LP when it was popular and I only recently acquired my own copy from a collection I absorbed. Admittedly, most of the live tracks bested their previously released studio versions (much like Cheap Trick's, Live Budokan), but some of it, besides the hits are dull and feel like filler, like most concerts can be. A solid sounding live album that sprawled out into a double album is questionable (it retailed only $1 more than a single LP), as it could have been even greater as one record. Oh well, it fared pretty well as it was, so who the hell am I to question this.
I've never heard this, but I do know the songs. So, probably better than I imagined. 4/5
25th August 2023 Listened during the day on Saturday while driving to and from Cheltenham for windows and football with Barnett. Couple of classics on here (Simpsons do you feel) and frampton is a superb musician with a great voice. Spans quiet folk and exploratory heavier tracks.
Fantastic. Nobody does it like Frampton, and live he's unreal. Easy 5/5
Decent enough. Not really for me.
# 50 : Live! It was ok, but to hear it without the atmosphere, it kind of loses something. 2.5 Stars Baby I Love Your Way
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.
This is surely an impressive live album and I get why it is voted as one of the best out there. I just don't find Frampton's music that interesting.
Such a huge album at the time. I remember it being touted as the next big thing after The Beatles. Doesn’t seem to hold up. Fun pop rock songs but lacks depth for me.
Heard before: some I have such nostalgia for this record cover, picturing an imaginary older sibling separating stems and seeds in the gatefold. But when the music starts... eh. It's kind of tuneless, second-rate cock rock, everything bad about the 70s. I'd really rather listen to the Almost Famous soundtrack. Top Tracks: Show Me The Way, Do You Feel Like We Do, Baby I Love Your Way
I never got this and still don't. Some of the songs would be pretty good but the live format doesn't do it any favours. Maybe you need to have been there?
first off it's a live album so the vocals are weak, then has long guitar solos which are a personal hatred of mine. not for me at all 1.4
Nope
The band plays tightly, but I wish the music leaned heavier into power pop and fully embraced the hard rock aesthetics heard sporadically. I also don't personally care for Peter's vocals and have never been a fan of the talk box. Despite enjoying a few songs more than I thought I would, I have very little desire to revisit this. One positive, I suppose, is how this album drove suburban kids crazy enough to learn some guitar licks and form punk bands. Thanks for showing us the way.
nice playing, smooth sound, but not my fav
Live Albums are the worst.
I swear there's a joke about this album
Wow, I hated this. Didn’t like the voice, didn’t like the guitars, vibe sucked. Nope.
Honestly was never a big fan but this might be enough to change my mind
Didn't expect to like this album, but it was actually a pretty good live performance. I knew very little about Peter Frampton beforehand but recognised some songs. Very solid classic rock.
As with all live albums - this is going to have to be absolutely goddamn exceptional for me to see past the fact it was recorded live. The sad thing is that just from the first track I can tell that it absolutely isn't going to be. His voice is just...not good. The guitar playing is decent, in an showboating sort of way. The drums and bass are tight. But in track 2 we "get to" hear the audience clapping along - and I simply don't give a monkeys about that. I don't want to feel like I'm there - in an uncomfortable seat, or being jostled constantly by some prick. The combination of audience noise, ludicrously over the top wah-wah & talk box, and the fact I just don't much like this kind of soft rock is not a great combination.
Peter Frampton knows how to have a good time
Helt chill de va lustig sista sång
Aure (live)
Ach, DER hat Show Me The Way und Baby I Love Your Way geschrieben? Ich hab von dem sonst weder namentlich noch musikalisch irgendwas gehört. Und wohl auch nicht gar so viel verpasst. Fast drei Sterne.
Some truly great songs on here
Perus jamppa pamppa rock pop.... ei ärsytä liiaksi.. Varmaan hyviä biisejä noh tiiä siitä sitte kaikki samalta kuullostana.. Velipoika Ukrainassa kuolena.. heh.. puuro maistu sille kaverille... isä se sano poika syö talon käyhäksi heh.. sotahullu krääkkä ikää oli jo.. tartte murehtia.. innolla ukrainan hyökkäysvaihetta tässä seurantana...
a classic. I already own this record
Of course there are the hits, and PF is a boss on guitar and vocals, but just didn’t connect with the concert as recorded. Maybe I was on an off day but probably wouldn’t listen again
Que tiempos aquellos en los que se dejó caer por el Homerpalooza🤣🤣🤣(PSP)
A bit long, but some very nice songs
grande mestre, sonzeira
Yacht rock
Classic!
Ok, not really sure what the fuss is about. I did enjoy the ambience of the concert and audience to take me to the gig. But is it really that special?
I have opinions surrounding country music. I have opinions surrounding hard rock music. And I have opinions surrounding live albums. I switched this off due to being unable to bear this right now. Nevertheless, I did enjoy 'Something's Happening'; however, I will never purposely listen to any of these songs again. 3/10.
I thought I wouldnt like it and it didnt disappoint. Seems to be that brand of classic rock that excites people who dont really like music
Delightful! Glad it was a double album. Think “Lines on My Face” is my favorite. 3.75/5 (rounding up)
Got this in the mail with a sample of Tide. 3.75
Classic arena rock album
Great live album.
Standard rock album with nothing too outstanding, but it's still quite enjoyable.
This combines two of my least favourite things: Albums and dad rock. I don't know why I dislike live albums so much but I don't even like them by bands I love. And this is the worst type of live album: with all the showoff guitar solos and the crowd whooping, the crowd joining in and screaming. That shit's fine when you're at a gig. It ruins a record. Then the music itself: It's just so boring. I mean, man can play his guitar but I always find that a strange thing to build a sound. You can fine people who can play a guitar ridiculously well anywhere. If that's all you've got then what's the point?
Maybe you had to be there? This was just a subpar live album. Nothing really shone out here. It's standard boomer-era rock. Which I should love but the playing is fine. Inoffensive. Nothing really caught my ear. It just limps along.
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 leave you with a simple quote from Wayne's World: "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". " Personally 3 stars but I do really get a kick out of his Talk Box thingy.
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.
yesterday was a tough day for getting to music but I threw it on during cooking dinner and it was basically what I expected. Ok, but nothing for me to write home about. admittedly, didn't make it all the way through before I had to tune over to the Yankee game.
This is another one of those albums where I feel like I'm at a party with a big bonfire. The party is well into the night, not quite ready to end and Peter Frampton comes on. Pretty sure my dad had this record while it's not really my thing I did enjoy Doobie Wah, Baby, I Love Your Way, and that final track Do You Feel Like We Do.
I was pretty nonplussed about this to start with, but it did win me over a little as it went on. Hearing a non-reggae version of "Baby, I Love Your Way" is pretty unsettling, even if this is actually the original! Fave track - "Do You Feel Like We Do" - I like the talky guitar effects!
How many can say their classic album is a live album?
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!!
Great music, but I don't like listening to crowds shouting.
Nice album!
Nice live performance
Nice. Was not very familiar with the guy. Good stage performance, some nice hits :)
More important to music history than it is to me.
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.
Le générateur est au plus bas, je suis en grande difficulté dans ma lutte pour tenir la cadence infernale d'albums moyens envoyés par Robert. J'ai très peur pour l'avenir.
Greatest live album ever....
Frampton- So 70’s! Kind of generic classic rock sounding. interesting that this is a live album. Probably I like this more than I would if it were a studio album. Band sounds good and the live arrangements translate well to the record for the most part. “Baby I Love Your Way’ is a great song. I guess that why it’s on here one or two hits that made the record sell really well. As an album it’s alright I guess but not really sure why it’s on here- I know it was very popular but aside from the use of the talkbox I don’t think it was a super original or influential album. Some of his best guitar playing may be in “Lines on my Face.” 2.5
Really average sounding record. The way people talk about this, I really thought there was going to be something interesting but not really at all. Also plain shame is weird and creepy but I guess it’s about him turning down underage sex?
I don’t get the hype. I’ll give you money was the best. Otherwise I felt like most of the songs didn’t even have true melodies
Nice album but nothing special
70's groovin' rock, live in SF!
Cult classic? Not for me.
Overraskende trivelig. Denne lukter veldig 4 på en annen dag, men ikke i dag.
ei voi olla että tälle ukolle huurrataan ja taputetaan... löytyy KADUILTA... ÖRINÖIMÄSSÄ...kiinnostavempia artisteja... yleisö pitää ne nokat(!) suorassa... noh kelpohyvää.. kelpohyvää settiä, hyvillä sonicseilla. paska album heh (niin vitun objective. taas kerran) baby ilove your way
It's pretty good. I'm not entirely sure how it became such a huge success but I can't really knock it either. You know, when I think of Frampton I generally think of his appearance on The Simpsons. It's interesting that all of the musicians that appeared in that episode made this list. (Frampton, Cypress Hill, Smashing Pumpkins)
- Never listened a Frampton album in full before - Thought it was good, if a bit long - Some songs were much better than others - The Jumping Jack Flash cover is horrendous - Fav songs: Baby, I Love Your Way; Show Me the Way, Winds of Change
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
Not into live albums and not Frampton
I'm not big on live albums, but this one was produced very well. I was pleasantly surprised that I recognized some of the songs. Show Me The Way and Baby, I love Your Way were both hits for a reason. Some of the other songs on the album didn't really stand out to me.
Rock a la antigua usanza. Vinilo.
Live rock. "Show Me the Way", "Baby, I Love Your Way"
Ei tämä huonoa ole, mutta en tiedä, miksi yleisö hurraa noin hurmioituneena
Kuuntelin muutaman näytteen. Velvollisuus täytetty?
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.
I know Peter Frampton is super influential but his music was never really my cup of tea. On this record I feel like so many of these songs sound like they are going through the motions to get to the guitar solo, and then the guitar solo is a pentatonic jam with the same underlying chords as the rest of the track. I don't really love this- if there is such a pull to get to the solo sections, then the solo sections should really stand out. I didn't know that Peter Frampton wrote "Baby, I Love Your Way". It's a great track with a strong hook but I kind of feel like it's got this Jimmy Buffett - "let's retire to Hawaii" kind of boringness to it. The keyboard solo is a standout but it is really short at around 20 seconds. Overall it was a nice album to listen to, it probably deserves a spot on the list, but it's just not really my thing.
Show Me the Way was one of the sounds of summer 1976m, when I was 14. It was great to hear this again and I was looking forward to hearing Frampton Comes Alive, one of the biggest selling live albums (at a time when live albums were very much a thing). I have to say it has not aged brilliantly and some of the songs plod along and get lost in overlong guitar solos.
It was ok. Not totally my thing but not totally not my thing.
The singles are definite standouts, though I would add (I’ll Give You) Money to my list of favorites for being a little taste of metal. I can’t help but feel a studio album compiling these tracks would be more to my taste than the live format, but it was still an enjoyable listen.
Love ones are hard sometimes when you’ve not heard an album by that particular artist. Some songs were decent but I did zone out a little. Just not for me but I think if I knew more songs it’s be different
Blast from the past
Passé rock (and I think that was the case back in 1976, too)
2.5
Enjoyed listening to this whole thing. The switching from acoustic, to rock is awesome. Good voice. Tasteful guitar work and leads. Bluesy and modal interlinking. Do you feel like we do is an absolutely jam banger.
Enjoyable live album. I haven't really listened to much Frampton but I think I can confidently give this a 4
Not bad. Doubt I would put on again but was a decent listen. Strong three, weak 4.
Hair goals
j’ai les framptés
I forget what a great guitarist Frampton is. Fun to hear it in a live venue.
I don't care about it at all. The most basic of rock and roll. The talking box was a nice addition, but overall - I have no idea why it made it on the list. apparently it was extremely popular? I keep on realizing that I really don't like the 70s music.
The epitome of dad rock. Now also live!
A few songs on this are really good, the rest are meh. Personally, I don't much care for live albums in the first place, so this is a big pass for me.
There is some great musicianship on this record, but being live reduces production values, and the songs aren't strong enough to leave me wanting more.
С большим удовольствием послушал альбом. В нём нет чего-то феноменального, но я будто реально на концерте побывал. Некоторые песни вызывали эмоций на 4, но суммарно поставлю 3
Неплохой альбом, есть пара классных песен(Show Me the Way, Baby, I Love Your Way), но слишком затянуто и скучно
0 информации имел до текущего момента про исполнителя. Абсолютный ноунейм. Ещё и лайв альбом... Поэтому пришлось покопаться. Оказывается, это какой-то культовый британский поп-певец 1970-х годов, который потом работал продюсером с некоторыми грандами рок и поп сцены. И судя по строчке в Википедии про "камео в Симпсонах и Гриффинах", чел у себя на родине видимо неплохо стрельнул в свои годы. Но не исключено, что одним хитом. Так и не понял, почему был вставлен именно лайв в нашу подборку. Может быть, из-за набора супер популярных шлягеров внутри он хорошо продавался и поэтому стал культовым... В любом случае, музыка прикольная, но в целом обычная. Парень с гитаркой поёт лирические песенки, иногда про любовь, иногда про себя. Блюз-поп. В целом, на фон хорошо заходит, если не считать длинные паузы из-за оваций аудитории.
Ну чел поёт)))))))0) смысла этого альбома в 1001 я не понял, ибо ну слушать было вроде норм, но подзаебывало
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
Classic 70s! Enjoy your hair while you have it!
When I saw Frampton live his strap snapped and his guitar fell and broke his toe. 4 stars.
Yup. Fun fine good.
klassisk
Haven't listened to this in years. This type of soft-rock is beginning to sound a bit dated now, but still a few stand-out classics such as "Show Me The Way", "Baby, I Love Your Way" and "Do You Feel Like We Do".
Frampton was never really my thing. A little too young to be mesmerized.
3 estrellas. Sólido concierto en vivo
Doyoufeeeel. Consistent throughout with a few bangers sprinkled in
Wow!!
Great as a performer, less so as a songwriter. A decent record.
Very dated, very dull Live album
His skill is undeniable but I got ever so bored. I get it but I’m not into it.
Really good live album
Ok Fred Hampton
Loved it
3.5
Re-review from before I joined a group "It's a live album... beyond the talky guitar thing there's no much remarkable here. I'm going to check out the studio albums next though."
This album was everything I love about rock.
Before listening to this album I have read plenty of comments and articles about it. Everyone was giving it a high praise, some were calling ot the greatest live rock album of all time. The hype was really intense. But what I have taken from "Frampton Comes Alive" is that the guy, or the band members can play their instruments really well, with plenty of great-for-concerts solos, but the vocal didn't actually inspire anyone, and was lacking some serious substance. Not saying that it sounded bad, but certainly it was nothing more than your average rock frontman. Nice album, great solos, but overall average experience.
kinda mid, not very entertaining. It's OK
Whoever made this list needs to accept that the 70s are over and it is time to MOVE ON there are genres other than rock out there just FYI buddy
6/10 decent boomer music with a few standout tracks
5/10. It was good, maybe even deserves a 6, but I don't see what made it great.
I know it's not yacht rock but it's soft rock so I still wanna listen to it on a boat or a beach. Either way it's right up my alley. 9/10
Talented musicianship, boring songs, okay recordings. 2/5
Classic live album.
2.5
Melodic show rock, not my thing
I love this album it’s very good. High 4 almost 5
Normalde konser albümlerinden nefret ederim, çünkü hani müziği dinlediğim ortamın ambiyansını ben yaratıyorum; ve yönetme yetkisinin bende olması lazım. O yüzden herhangi bir şarkının konser kaydını dinlerken gerilirim, gerek dinleyicilerin sesi olsun gerekse müziğin mükemmelliğinin bozulması olsun, gerdi mi geriyor. Ama bu albümde onu görmedim ilk defa seyircilerin sesinin bir şeyler kattığını (?) düşündüm, belki de asla live albüm dinlemediğimdendir. Şarkılarda bence en çok öne çıkan şey gitar, bazı şarkıları taşımış diyebilirim, ki bu kayıtların hepsinde kendisi de çalıyor (daha da impressive) Çok akılda kalıcı olmasa da hoş şarkılar var içerisinde albümün, her zamanki gibi daha sakin olanlar bana hitap etti. Bazı şarkılar: Baby, I love your way-> nakarattaki harmoni hoş Do You Feel Like We Do -> ilgi çekici giriş + rad guitar solo BUT repeats itself for solid 14 mins (lmao did you just use a talkbox) Overall(5/10) Notability (5/10) Lyrics(3/10) Harmony(6/10) Cohesiveness(7/10)
Beklediğimden daha iyiydi. Live olup konser sırasında çekilmiş olması da ilk defa böyle bir albüm dinlediğim için oldukça ilginç geldi. Beğendiğim şarkılar: I wanna go to the sun + All I want to be (is by your side) Overall : 7/10
These Dad Rock vibes were so strong that when I got out of my car after listening, I was somehow wearing white New Balance sneakers, tube socks, and a T-shirt tucked into khaki shorts.
Definitely a pleasurable listen, though certainly does grow a bit long.
First listen
6/10
I don't know if these songs are any better on the studio albums, but this one really drags. Both dull and self-indulgent. "But the hooks!" No thanks.
Not a Frampton fan to begin with and the recording quality on this one does him no favors. Sounds entirely washed out compared to other live albums of the time, with no bass presence and brittle drums. The song selection is understandably hit-heavy, but when it’s just guitar and vocal in the mix there’s not a lot you can do with the set list to overcome serious sound design flaws.
Solid 70s era.
Great live album
This is excellent. Awesome production and sound quality on a live album. Every song is well performed as well. Favorite track: Show Me the Way
Already listen
Knew the name and a couple of the tracks but had never put the two together. Not bad overall and better when he sticks to the out-and-out blues numbers. "Baby, I love your way", however, is an appallingly saccharine rhodes-soaked-cheesefest.
Let the guitar do the talking.
they should have just signed sparky's magic guitar
Really liked this album, apart from the last song that went on for too long and was annoying
Thought I didn’t mind this in the morning, but when I came back to it this afternoon I was like fuck sake not this again. So
Just ok. Really not my preferred style of rock and roll.
Eh, it was decent. I didn't know all these songs were Peter Frampton, so I learned something there. 3/5
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-?
Not sure about the inclusion of a Live album to the list but moments of this were alright.
This isn't commentary on the artist or the music. Live albums represent a "best of" category that should be independent, unless the crowd gives you something that adds to the music you wouldn't otherwise get.
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.
Live album Might listen to again Would buy vinyl if digging
60's jam band, guitar shit. Not my thing. Maybe I'm not high enough.
"Did you hear the one song that Frampton makes the guitar talk?" Sigh - if I had a penny for every time I heard that question in some form or another. It's there, at the end, milked for 10 minutes, it's OK, and I guess it's memorable, but the rest of the album isn't - quite a generic mid-tempo songs, and an absolute terrible rendition of 'Jumping Jack Flash'. Nope, I haven't grown into it more over the years, more like the opposite.
Well, this album has a lot of things going against it. Its a live album, its a double album, it has a shitty cover of a great Rolling Stones song with a long drum solo. It should totally suck ass, but surprisingly it's not awful. While most songs presented here are pretty lame 70's rock (ex: Something's Happening, It's a Plain Shame), some songs are timeless classics. Those songs, Show Me The Way, Baby I Love Your Way and Do You Feel Like We Do are all fun 70's classic rock staples with stellar guitar work and cheesy pedal effects. Do these songs make this a great album ? No. Do these songs save this album from being a total snore fest ? Kinda. Live albums are almost never good, but this one is passable. Wah Wah 6/10
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.
Genre: Rock and Roll Favorite songs: Baby I love your way
I hate double live albums
Baby’s first Guitar Hero
Understand why punk was invented a year later
Surprisingly good.
Peter Frampton a juste trop de talent, peut importe le commentaire, je suis l'argumentaire, un genie 5*
Stodgy and spacey. It has a legacy for sure but it is a little lost on my ears. Frampton is unquestioningly an amazing guitar player but is that enough?
3 absolute classics, and a lot of filler. Very clever musicians, but long running length and general sameness to the tracks knocks this to a 3.
I can't stand live albums that sound like an audience member had a tape deck and made a bootleg, very poor.
I enjoyed this album. I recognized a couple songs which was exciting and I liked the overall everything. I don’t think it was anything spectacular, or groundbreaking but it was good.
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
Livelevy? Pakko olla kyllä sit parhaita keikkoja mitä on ollut. Nojoo, oli kyllä miellyttävää kuunneltavaa. Do you feel like we do on kyllä tykki lopettaja. Ja framptonin soolot on mahtavia
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.
When I first heard Auto-Tune, I was hoping that it was a technology that would quickly go the way of Peter Frampton’s talk box, but alas, we weren’t so lucky. After the first couple of songs I was thinking no lower than a 2, since the guitar playing is okay, as is his voice. But a few more songs in, I got annoyed with the way that lyrically, it’s one cliché piled on top of another as they plod toward a dumbed-down sing-a-long chorus. No better than 1, I thought. My co-judge agreed. But it ended with “Do you Feel…” with the afore-mentioned talk box, which is kind of catchy, especially since it became more-or-less obsolete the next year, and it has a decent opening guitar riff. I’ve gone to the gym in our hotel two days in a row, where they love to play horrible commercial late seventies rock. It would have been a pleasant surprise to hear PF's talk box. Back to a 2.
Back in high school the cool kids were mad about this album. I didn’t understand the hype about it then, and 45 yrs later I still don’t see what all the fuss was about. At least now I can confidently say that I wasn’t missing anything. This is a pretty bog standard rock/pop record and a terrible live recording to boot.
OK
Good.
hackery, pure foolishness, lame, bloated, bland, guitar that sounds like a voice… woweeee. this is a dated, stale album left out to bleach and rot in the sun. nah. no good.
"Show Me The Way", "Baby I Love Your Way", and "Do You Feel Like We Do" are three super hits that I really like. Crazy good live album. 9/10.
Rock a la antigua usanza. Vinilo.
A bit lame, I dunno..
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
thank fuck punk came along
I used to be so annoyed trying to download Baby, I Love Your Way from Limewire in the 2000s, because every version I would find was this live version and not a studio recording which I would've highly preferred. The story is the same here. Why is this the album that brought him to fame? Do other people enjoy live albums this much? How come Peter Frampton singing over a loud crowd with muffled instruments is their preferred way of listening to his music? I get that the live experience is different, but only when you're actually there in person. Or at the very least, watching a live video. Listening to a live album doesn't give the same satisfaction. Don't get me wrong. The songs are good. Frampton sounds great, the voice box is a nice touch and the rest of his band is strong too. Show Me The Way, All I Want To Be (Is By Your Side), Baby, I Love Your Way, and the 14-minute long Do You Feel Like We Do are really enjoyable. For the most part though, they feel like inferior versions of the music. But maybe it's just a taste thing.
Of it's time, has not age well
I came to this album thinking Peter Frampton is generic classic rock. I mean, "Oooh baby I love your way" is a super cheesy song, and that mouth-guitar gimmick he does? I mean...c'mon. So, when I listened to this album I was SO close to giving it at least 3, if not 4, stars. It wasn't that bad, in fact, some of the songs were pretty darn good. I dug the way Peter and his band jammed out a lot of the tunes. It's not like he's bad at guitar, just nothing special. Also, I've mentioned many a time on here how much I do not like live albums. I mean, live albums are fine, but to me, they are not "true" albums. They, in many cases, are representative of an artist's best work. And, they are often poor audio quality...not to mention how annoying I find it when audiences can be heard singing or clapping along. Or some antic is happening on stage because the crowd is reacting to it, but that translates only to me being bored when I only have audio. So when I found myself kind of digging this one, I even thought, heck maybe this is a four-star album? But the more I thought about it, and the further I got into the album, I realized just because this is better than I thought and I found myself digging some of the songs, doesn't mean it's still not exactly what I expected it to be: generic classic rock. After all, it's the generic, appeal to the masses, formulaic rock here that has me thinking it's not too bad to listen to. By the end, I was tired of the formula and able to more clearly think about what's so special about this album. To me, nothing at all. It's fine, but it's just that...fine. Peter Frampton definitely has his place in the annals of classic rock. This was a big album. But, I think there's a reason it really took Frampton Comes Alive to propel him to stardom. There are some hits here, some catchy tunes, and some nice guitar playing. But the songwriting remains simple and cheesy. And aside from a few solid tunes, there's nothing to write home about.
Bra energi och instumentals.
OOOOOH BABY I LOVE THE WAY
Stopped listening after like 4 songs. Two things I really dislike: blues rock and live albums. I’m sure in it’s time this might’ve been interesting but I’m sorry I just do not care
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
There are some really sweet songs with catchy lyrics. Ooooh baby I love your way... I liked this album alright back in the day (every tweenaged boy I knew had a copy) but have come to appreciate it more. I think he is a pretty good song writer and his voice is attractive as well.
Pete sounds good on this recording. Talk box was super innovative. some hits, but kinda forgettable.
Good music but personally not a fan of live albums
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.
Not as good as I remember.
Uhhh, baby i love your way...
It's a great live album. Sounds amazing and the production quality is fantastic, but the actual music is very mid and not very interesting.
Didn't know Peter had such intense rock, thought he was more of a chill guy. Good stuff.
Is the influence of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band ultimately a pernicious one? How many contemporary peers of the Beatles failed when they tried adding strings (the Rolling Stones' Their Satanic Majesty's Request, despite all the attempts to defend it as a traduced classic, simply doesn't have songs that good, and that's one of the better examples)? The ambition the Beatles exhibited became directed towards the hordes of unwashed longhairs who decided that sidelength tracks, innumerable chord changes, lyrics about orcs and flutes represented music at its pinnacle, and thus we have the worst genre of all, prog. And then we get to the Sgt. Pepper movie. The Sgt. Pepper movie was not performed by the Beatles, but instead came out 11 years after the album, with barely any dialogue (with the cast just singing Beatles numbers and George Burns as Mr. Kite providing the narration), but with the Bee Gees and Peter Frampton as a band tracking down magical instruments stolen by the evil Aerosmith. If you wish to understand the tenor of the movie, just Youtube Steve Martin's take on Maxwell's Silver Hammer, then drop your head in shame. Before the movie was released, Robin Gibb gave this absolute pearler of a quote: "Kids today don't know the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper. And when those who do see our film and hear us doing it, that will be the version they relate to and remember. Unfortunately, the Beatles will be secondary. You see, there is no such thing as the Beatles. They don't exist as a band and never performed Sgt. Pepper live, in any case. When ours comes out, it will be, in effect, as if theirs never existed. When you heard the Beatles do Long Tall Sally or Roll Over Beethoven, did you care about Little Richard's or Chuck Berry's version?" Do kids today know that a film version of Sgt. Pepper was made? In any case, although it made some money, the film was rightfully eviscerated by the critics, and poor Peter Frampton had his career momentum halted by a sledgehammer. And he had real momentum. Frampton Comes Alive! went 8 times platinum in the States, and although his follow-up didn't do nearly as well, it still sold well enough to indicate he was established. Frampton Comes Alive!, a double album providing a sampling from each of his previous, middlingly successful albums, made Frampton the approachable yet respectable guitar hero both teenage boys and teenage girls could poster their walls with. One would finger his air guitar whilst drifting off in bed, and the other would finger her (sorry, I just cannot finish that sentence in a way that would maintain anyone's dignity). And it's a perfectly adequate 70s live rock double album. You will enjoy some parts. The double length has that standard double-length curse of diminishing the whole by homogenous parts. An individual song broadly sounds alright, if not spectacular to this particular ear, but becomes lessened in impact by having another song sounding right similar straight afterwards. There's a limit to the rice pudding you can eat, even if you add jam. A note on the singles. Nobody in the world likes Baby I Love Your Way. Is that title euphemistic? I really hope not. A mawkish, cackhanded signal that it's smooch o'clock, Baby I Love Your Way only manages to signal for teenage hormones to go into retreat and that one would be better off just pulling the hair of the girl you fancy. Show Me the Way is just a 70s rock song, not big, not small, just adequate. A 5-inch cock of a song. Obviously, the big kahuna is Do You Feel Like We Do, a 14-minuter where Frampton unleashes his great gimmick of the record, his talking guitar. Yes, that's a novelty, but the real heat of the song comes straight after that bridge, where the guitar and drums actually find a stone groove and deliver a worthy coda. I can appreciate why Frampton Comes Alive! stormed America in the 70s (Frampton never really came to anything here, in his native UK). However, I also appreciate why Frampton Comes Alive! has become mired with the reputation as a 70s curiosity. Frampton currently has a muscular wasting disease, meaning he has to spend two hours in the gym each day just to maintain muscle mass. This condition has also forced him to retire from playing, save very sporadic tribute concerts. I sincerely wish him well for the future. Finally, Jerry Lee Lewis has just died. Peter Frampton once served as a guitarist for Jerry on his 1973 album, The Session. A raised glass to the Killer. Age is a bastard. NoRadio, signing off.
Not a huge fan
A bit cheesy and MOR but nice pleasant enough.
Liked it a lot more than I though I would
Best Song: Baby, I Love Your Way. Often, when listening to these older albums, I wonder if I coincidentally like the most famous song or if I just enjoy recognizing it. This one's no different. Worst Song: (I'll Give You) Money. Generic classic rock that could have been produced by absolutely anyone. Overall: It's not bad. Not great. Just is. And what it is, it is a bit too long.
Never got why this was so popular. Terrible version of Jumping Jack Flash is probably the lowlight
There's an old joke that was on "Wayne's World 2" about this album: WAYNE: Have I seen this one before? Frampton Comes Alive? 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". It's weird how such a big seller in the 70s is so...unknown today. Lots of albums are like that now. But Peter Frampton is one of those guitarists I really never heard of until much later. The album really has that 70s feel to it, which isn't bad except it just makes it feel a bit... dated. Did not like the slow version of Jumping Jack Flash. Frampton's soloing worked, but it was a little too plodding. The other three songs that I knew I am sure I have heard on the radio at some time or other. Although "Do You Feel Like I Do" makes me think of his appearance on The Simpsons: "Do You Feel? Come On, DO YOU FEEL??" So I liked the guitar work Frampton did here on most of the pieces, but it did give you that 70s feel, but not in the best way. Not sure I'm going to come back to it.
Sorry, but I always found the singles off this album a bit boring and/or I didn't get what the big deal was with Frampton (other than his squawk box). I found side one and two of the album lacked energy, except maybe the last song on side two (I Wanna Go to the Sun). Side three really picked up the pace, from the instrumental Penny for Your Thoughts and then followed by Money (though the editing/transition between the two is terrible). Shine on and Jumpin Jack Flash were solid too. Side four was alright; doesn't hold the same pace as side three though I guess Do You Feel Like We Do is the best of the singles. So maybe half an album that is humming and another half that is meh. Feels pretty average to me.
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.
But it is neat to see a minimum of five copies in every single record store.
One of the greatest live albums ever. Frampton brings life to his studio works in this classic. 4.5
Overrated guitarist sings corny songs. Can’t even make out a lot of the lyrics because the singing sounds so muffled.
aight
Good guitarist but the music has no 'edge' it's too fluffy - not rock enough.
Imagine living your whole life in the bargain bin. Every decade this album has been like £5, they don't even adjust this thing for inflation it's so hard to get rid of. But now all those dudes who bought it when they were 20 are like 70, and Frampton Comes Alive... again. Pretty poppy, a perfectly middle of the road album.
Relaxing listen, would maybe have on in the background of an unlively pub, overall still enjoyable
It’s like a private performance from your Uncle’s favourite band, an easy and cosy listen.
This was a pretty decent live album. I've always felt like Peter's guitar playing stood out among 70s rock like this (aside from dire straits) and have liked it. Also the sound box stuff near the end and in show me the way I really like. Baby I love your way has always been a little overrated to me but otherwise its an alright 70s rock album.
prety boring ngl idrc
That amazing, full-length Do You Feel Like I Do is enough. The rest is gravy.
Despite living in the suburbs, I was never issued a copy of Frampton Comes Alive. That’s not to say I’m unfamiliar with it, though. Even if you’ve never heard the record, the chances you haven’t heard “Show Me the Way” or “Baby, I Love Your Way” are slimmer than Peter Frampton’s Bell bottoms. You know who probably did get a copy of this record in the mail back in 1976? Trey and the boys from Phish. A lot of this record has a kind of proto-Phish jammy-ness to it, except not as weird and played competently. (Look, I’ve got a thousand and one records to listen to, it was inevitable that I’d eventually talk a little smack on Phish) About a decade ago, while in Colorado for business, I took an afternoon and visited Red Rocks Amphitheatre. I had only intended on touring the venue, just to see in person how awesome it is. Even if you’re not going there for a concert, it is worth visiting. Absolutely beautiful. What I didn’t know when I arrived, was that Peter Frampton was playing that night and I would be walking around the venue while he and the band sound checked. I’m not a Peter Frampton fan by any stretch, but hearing his talk box reverberate off the giant slabs of prehistoric rock is one of the coolest “concert” experiences I’ve ever had. It sounded amazing. …and for that, Peter Frampton is cool with me.
Gawd...
Didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did
Baha.
This is an evergreen album. Glad to listen it every time!
Helaas, live-albums kan ik slecht naar luisteren
Misschien dat je dit in zijn tijd moet plaatsen, maar ik hoor er niets in dat mij bij zal blijven.
