Who is Peter Frampton Great 70s Rock Artist
Ranked #4,163 in Music, #117,128 overall
Peter Frampton is a Masterpiece Rock Artist
The band's most successful song and forever a classic is "Do You Feel Like We Do." This song originally came from the Frampton's Camel album released in 1973. It was the band's second album then called, Frampton's Camel. Originally this song was about waking up with a hangover with the opening lyrics being "Well, woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand..." It reached 110 on the US charts with the song's track being 6:44 minutes and was not then released as a single.
This song was added to Frampton Comes Alive album, which was released in 1976 and became Peter Frampton's masterpiece album. As a live performance and on the album, this song plays more than twice as long as the originally version, 14:17 minutes.
Disappointed in the lack of success from the Frampton's Camel album, Frampton and his band did not want to be confused with the band named Camel. It was decided to perform under his name, Frampton.
After coming into America from the UK, the band toured as the backup band for two years supporting acts such as the J. Geils Band and ZZ Top.

English guitarist, pianist and singer Peter Frampton was a school-friend of David Bowie. As a teenager he joined a band called The Herd, who had a UK No.6 hit in "From The Underworld" (1967), followed by "I Don't Want Our Loving To Die" the next year, which hit No.5. Soon Frampton became unhappy with his image as a teen idol, and formed Humble Pie with Steve Marriot of The Small Faces.

Three reasons to love Peter Frampton

Frampton was one of several '70s rock artists to break through to a wide audience with a live album, which turned them into a success after struggling to make a name from themselves.
3. Frampton Comes Alive album of 1976, became the best-selling live album of all time and held that title for more than 20 years

- I hated Peter Frampton. Loved his songs, but he was soooooo much better look than the rest of us, and darn it, it looks like he still is.
Just kidding. His live album was one I really liked, but his producers never really managed to recapture that energy in anything that followed. The Grateful Dead were so great in concert, they could never come close in a studio album. Same problem. How do you capture that energy in a studio?

- I still love Peter Frampton. I got the chance to see him live in the early 90s and he was still as good as ever. I think he's still cute even without the hair.
Do You Feel Like We Do was the song we used to play at my college radio station when we needed to take a restroom break. That was back when we still played records and everything was manual.

- Frampton Comes Alive was big in my college days. He is still touring - catch up with him on Facebook, he has a very active account and comments a lot. Still sounds just as good today. Do you feel like I do? Lensrolled to my classic rock song lyrics lenses.

- What a great trip down memory lane. I loved my Frampton Comes alive albom. Love the photos of him now. Also, listening to the youtube video while I am typing this and wondering why I loved his music so much.
