Frampton Comes Alive
Description
This album spent 97 weeks on the charts on its way to
becoming the best-selling live recording of all time! Remastered from the
original source tapes and compiled on one CD. This is ’70s rock! If
you were challenged to name five rock albums that epitomized the ’70s,
Frampton Comes Alive! should probably top the list. Former Humble Pie
guitarist Peter Frampton recorded a few perfectly fine albums with his band
Frampton’s Camel, but it wasn’t until some of those tracks were recorded at a
live performance in San Francisco and released as Frampton Comes Alive! that
he became a household name. Buoyant pop, sentimental ballads, arena rock–this
album has it all. The LP package set sales records and contained three bona
fide radio hits (“Baby, I Love Your Way,” “Show Me the Way,” and “Do You Feel
Like We Do?”), one of which, shockingly enough, was over 14 minutes long. No
wonder that, to many, the two-and-a-half-minute songs of the Damned and the
Sex Pistols felt like a breath of fresh air a year or two later. –Lorry
