Frampton Comes Alive was one of the defining musical moment in my life. I bought my first guitar and took lessons. I wanted to play like him. I’m still trying. 
Peter is recording new material for as long as he can.
One last tour. I will try my best to get tickets at the closest venue. There will never be another guitar player like Frampton. His style is unique.
That’s a shame. His album Frampton Comes Alive was THE biggest thing back when I first started dating Mr. Salinqmind, and we saw his show at a casino about 10 years ago. Just magical! 
. One of his stops is here again, this summer, at an outdoor amphitheater. I wish him the best, he made a lot of people happy with his music.
I remember listening to radio in high school, Barry Manilow, Bee Gees, KC Sunshine Band, donna summer were constantly on the top 40.
It was ok. Not particularly inspiring. It was pleasant background music as I lived my life.
Then Frampton’s music gets airplay. Baby I Love your Way, Do You Feel Like We Do
Totally blew me away. I’d never heard a guitar make sounds quite like that. I had to learn guitar and make music. Changed my life.
I completely wore out my 8 track and cassette copies.
I only saw Frampton perform once, in 1971. He was the lead guitar in Steve Marriott’s group Humble Pie. He totally blew the roof off the dump. By the way, Humble Pie was the opening act for Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Pretty strong show!
A couple of years later, Jerry Lee Lewis released “The London Sessions,” with Frampton, Alvin Lee, and Rory Gallagher as his session guitarists. Frampton’s work on that album, especially his work on “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” was jaw-dropping.
Never cared much for “Frampton Comes Alive.” I was in my mid-20’s when it came out, and it seemed a little too “aimed for the high-school girl market” for my tastes.
Nonetheless, what a great guitarist!
Peter Frampton recently made a guest appearance on the TV show “Madam Secretary”, because SoS Elizabeth McCain (Tea Leoni) is a big Frampton fan, and their wedding song was “Baby, I Love Your Way.” 
I never had “Frampton Comes Alive”, which was about as ubiquitous in teens’ record collections at the time as Boston’s STDA, but I do remember that a couple years later, he was in a terrible car accident that almost took away his ability to play the guitar, due to broken bones and muscle and nerve damage.
IIRC the car wreck set back his career for quite a few years. The time off stopped the momentum from his hit album.
Frampton is one of the few artists that I enjoy listening to deep cuts. Just to hear his amazing guitar work.
I got to meet Frampton about a decade ago, when he paid a visit to the advertising agency where I was then working. He was touring the Chicago agencies, essentially pitching himself and his music for use in ads, but he was funny and engaging, and he talked to several dozen of us for about an hour on his experiences in the music industry.
A few years ago, I saw him on tour – he was touring for the 35th anniversary of Frampton Comes Alive. He played that entire album, in order, and then played for about another 90 minutes after that. It was a fabulous show, and it was one of the first shows he played after having the restored “Phoenix” Les Paul guitar returned to him, which was also very cool.
I only saw him once, he was playing guitar for one of David Bowie’s tours in the late 80s. He didn’t do any of his own music.
Buy a ticket to see a fantastic guitarist & help fund research= win-win.
