Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: 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 double-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 Fleming Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Most over rated album everFor years this album has been highly placed in the "best live rock albums ever" stakes. I 've read glowing reviews of how fantastic it is. I'd heard two songs from it "Baby, I Love Your Way" and "Show Me The Way." I'd thought that they weren't exactly rock and indeed theuy were usually played on easy listening stations. So I took the plunge and bought it. What a let down. I can't even begin to fathom how such lightweight, overdubbed, easy listening rubbish has wormed it's way into the "great live albums". Doobie Wah, Wind Of Change, Penny For Your Thoughts etc wouldn't be out of place on Terry Wogan's morning radio show on Radio 2. I'm not denying Frampton is a good guitar player, but don't assault your ears with ... Read More: Rating:  - Unprecedented icon of rock historyFor many people interested in more vast range of music than just some boy/girl bands or one hit starlets from the actual charts Peter Frampton means the unprecedented icon of rock history. His extraordinary recordbreaking album "Frampton Comes Alive" more than 3 decades ago set a standard of live recording which still remains a goal for many rock performers, producers other professionals. This album became not only a brandmark or kind of a lighthouse in Frampton's career despite all Peter's later achievements - it definitely became an eternal milestone of rock history, a mark that every live recording was and still is measured with. You feel yourself infected by wonderful flow of this music and atmosphere of the venue after the very ... Read More: Rating: - Whos frampton?Im only 18 so frampton is a bit before my time. I first heard about it on waynes world were they made the joke of everbody owning this album, of course this was lsot on me. Its a live mix of stadium rock and 70s style blues rock. its full of classics. with begining trcks which just set the mood, then some amazing acoustic playing and then very powerful reock songs. this is without doubt one of the best live albums ever made. buy it to own a classic. Rating: - Does anyone remember the summer of 76?If you do the sun shone forever and this was THE album to play! Oh for great memories! Crank up the volume- go crusin in your car and see the flock approach ... Do you Feel Like We Do ? 14 mins of brilliance and Lines On My Face both CLASSIC! Show Me The Way was virtually played bare as the single to the release.Oh for the crackles of the vinyl! But this is classic without them! Remember the Voice Box and your air guitar impressions ? Wind Of Change - I Wanna Go To The Sun - Baby I Love Your Way. This is Stadium Rock at its best. It sold in bucketloads and held the record for a live recording for many a year. Buy a slice of History. Oasis move sidewards for a class Brit! |
