In 1976, I never heard of Peter Frampton. I just heard "Frampton Comes Alive". And I was just amazed. Freshman in high school. Still listening today. Great sound.
Yes, indeed, folks, something's happening! My earliest childhood friend shares the same birthday as Bowie, and, when he was working for Peter Frampton, he was sent to South America in search of his favorite lost Les Paul. His name is Jon, and he's on page 2 of Mr. Frampton's memoirs. That reminds me: The first version of 'Rebel, Rebel' I ever heard was the 'Live At The Tower/David Live' LATINIZED version.
Frampton just seems like a guy who is so genuine and happy all the time. Been watching him for many years, bought Frampton Comes Alive as a teen. Timeless.
Oh yeah, I remember being in CBGBs, which during the late 70s was the punk rock capitol. On this evening, I was there with my earliest childhood friend, Jon 'JD' Dworkow, who was working for my brother and his band (they were doing a show in CBGBs that night). Someone played 'Rebel, Rebel' on the jukebox; and being drunk as as skunk at the time, I got up on one of the tables and started dancing. About a couple of years later, 'JD', found himself working for Peter Frampton. What's more, 'JD' shares the same birthday as Bowie-and Elvis! True story!
Saw this show in Lowell Massachusetts out on the lawn was an awesome event....My first time there I had no idea how the place worked but had talked to a lady that worked there and she brought me up to a blanket she had put the other night before and I saw the whole show literally this close to him thought that was pretty awesome. She was a sweetheart of a lady
@@oceanhedonist265 Yes. His phrasing lines and ideas are very much inspired by jazz. He has the ability to create these long and interesting melodic solos unlike a lot of rock guitarists from that era who never ventured beyond pentatonic style soloing.
This is a hypothetical question; 1st off I love Frampton's music, I was 16 when I turned a rocker, his chord structures and progressions are so unique!) my inquiry: I'm 57 now and a 30+ yrs. blues/rock guitarist, arteritis has set in not bad yet only in my right thumb- my left index finger, my barre finger is gettin' stiff, how do these older rockers, some in their 70's deal with the pain, and the "burden" of a heavy Gibson, mine an SG & it's beginning to suck, what is their solution? Can anyone, including guitarist, tell me how they do it? Russell...
Russell Rainwater they take Advil and they adapt. You've heard the phrase "he doesn't play like he used to". I think it's the luck of the draw. . I've been playing guitar for 45 years. A lot of it fingerstyle. I am 54 now. You try different techniques and learn new things. One finger doesn't work so well, figure out how to get by more without it. When my right hand fingers began to slow down, l picked up slide guitar, and later mandolin. And of course take care to avoid injury by not overdoing it. We're not 25 anymore. As for Frampton, so far so good!
Bowie and Frampton are from the same place, they were school mates (although Frampton is 3 years younger), so they have the same regional accent, which probably helps
all the cool people jammed on Peter Frampton back in the 70s and still do
The 70"s were the best!
That is such a rockin' song!
Undoubtedly,among the best musicians- guitarists ever
Who doesn't love Peter Frampton, I just learned that even spell check knows who he is..
Takes me back. Love you, PF. Class act all the way.
Happy Bithday Peter. 4.22.22 71 years?
Thanks for all the great memories. Love all the stuff...Humble Pie and present.
Rock On Dude!
72 yrs, born 1950. It was a very good year! 🎶💙I 🎶
75 in a few weeks, I still need my Daily Fix of Pie!
I can’t count how many times I’ve played this song. One of my all time favs
Me too...probably thousands
Love this song!❤
Something's Happening is one of those songs I've been humming for about 40 years...
his best along with Lines on my Face.
2012 Worcester MA at Hanover Theater.....entire FCA and Humble Pie tunes.
Fantastic and spot on LP sound.
Thank heaven some guys still play a Gibson Les Paul. You can have that squeaky clean Fender strat stuff.
Plenty of room for both in this world.

He’s awesome and his concerts were wonderful 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I graduated from High School in '78.

Eu ainda não tive o prazer de conhecê-lo pessoalmente. Amo Peter Frampton ❤.
Saw him live about 15 years ago. He was still as good as ever. He opened for Journey. I thought it should've been the other way around.
AGREED!!
He is like wine.Come on man!!! The best rock musician in the world.
Frampton just seems like a guy who is so genuine and happy all the time. Been watching him for many years, bought Frampton Comes Alive as a teen. Timeless.
Peter always has a smile on his face. Love that.
"Music is my food in life. Don't take it away."...……….Frampton
Band sounds great. Pete’s solos still give me chills down my spine. Love his style.
Same😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

Fantastic ! Keep on rolling Peter !
He’s the real deal
Oh yeah... great tour 😉❤❤❤❤
Frampton always has great tone on his guitar, great player ...
I agree. I think it‘s because he uses a Gibson
Totally agree. One of the most underrated guitarists. Plays beautiful scales.
It's also because he incorporates jazz styles into his playing.
@@oceanhedonist265 Yes. His phrasing lines and ideas are very much inspired by jazz. He has the ability to create these long and interesting melodic solos unlike a lot of rock guitarists from that era who never ventured beyond pentatonic style soloing.
@@TheseusTitanmaybe. But....his effects chain is off the hook man
Awesome as always
Best solo ever.
There's something about those solos he does, very melodic and perfect for the song!
love this tune!!!
Just glorious!
Peter has always been one of my favorite guitar hero’s a big influence
Saw him in concert in June 2017 and he's as good now as then (last year all the way back to the '60's). Fantastic!
One of the greatest.
I love him so much!!!
The joy of playing..... "Frampton comes alive" is the 5th record I bought, no doubt that kid had good taste in music... :-P
Flawless.
Goddammmmmm still sounds as good as ever
Gorgeous Les Paul!
England LOST their FINEST citizen!!!! Thank you Frampton!!
So good. Love this man!
Fantastic video! Love it!
Whew sing it Baby🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍

@@juantailor Try switching to a Strat - a lot less stressful on the hands
@@juantailor What do you think of Michael Schenker? He is quite amazing at his age as well...maybe better
I know you think I am crazy and this sounds crazy but, look Into bee venom therapy (BVT). Also called Apitheray. Did wonders for my arthritic hands.
I’d like to know what catches his eye at 4:00? It’s kinda fun to see.
Genioooooooooo
Wow this audio quality is damn incredible. From a phone?
Not a phone. A Nikon P7700 camera with a Sony ECM-D870P plug in microphone.
@@randy8297 ah, nice
Nice
the same voice
dang he does a good job singing bowie
Bowie and Frampton are from the same place, they were school mates (although Frampton is 3 years younger), so they have the same regional accent, which probably helps
@@LeGrandeOrange PF has played it a lot.
Forgot that Peter toured with Bowie.
Where's the Black Beauty? Sacrelige
roquefortfiles oh no its lost again!
Ge sings like a boy❤
I like the older Peter better. He's not hamming it up as much. Just playing good music.
Very poignant for anyone born in the early sixties.
Frampton is still a god!
