...2 nights ago. Anyone that lived music of the 70's knows this iconic album:
Guys trip. Flew to Salt Lake City to hang w/my best friend (buddy Buck) and see Peter Frampton. Superb show. What a phenomenal guitarist, funny dude and an inspiration on how, even when faced w/a debilitating muscular disease, to live life in spite of his reality....and inevitable conclusion. (https://www.guitarworld.com/news/peter-frampton-farewell-tour-seated)
Did some reading on his life story. Worth, at a minimum, looking over his wiki page...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Frampton
Also, if inclined, cast a vote...he's been nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. https://vote.rockhall.com/en
Quick 2 day trip but the icing on the cake was lunch at the Red Iguana before heading to the airport. Killer Mexican food, especially their mole's. https://www.rediguana.com/
So, if you get the opportunity to see him, "Just do it". Other than having to sit while he performs, the man still has mad skills at age 73.

My brother was at the show in Plattsburg, New York from which a few of the songs for the live album were taken.
Not my best sentence, but I'm keeping it. -

Glad to see he made the class of 2024 R&R Hall of Fame inductees a few days ago. https://variety.com/2024/music/news/rock-roll-hall-of-fame-2024-inductees-1235977662/Yeah man.

That would've been an epic concert!My brother was at the show in Plattsburg, New York from which a few of the songs for the live album were taken.
I've been to 200+ concerts and can't say I've ever made it on a live album (to my knowledge). Frampton would be iconic. Closest I have is a Stones bootleg from their 1982 "Farewell Tour" and I was "on" one track...also, a Motley Crew bootleg when I saw them open for Iron Maiden around 1984. SQ sucks on both!The Frampton SACD's are very nice. They came out with 3 last year for 50th anniversary. Frampton, Camel and Winds of change.
Have all 3 and agree. Surprised they didn't and wish they would release Comes Alive. Edit to add...maybe in 2026?
