The Back Room with Andy Ostroy​

News Commentary​

Listen on Apple Podcasts​

"Peter Frampton is one of the most celebrated artists and guitarists in rock history. In 2007, he won a Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental Album for Fingerprints and in 2014 was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame. His album All Blues was #1 for fifteen weeks on Billboard’s Blues Chart. In 2020 Frampton was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, his autobiography Do You Feel Like I Do?: A Memoir debuted on The New York Times Bestsellers list, and his 2021 album Frampton Forgets The Words was released to widespread critical acclaim. Later this year, he will appear on Dolly Parton’s forthcoming album, Rockstar (out November 17), as the only artist featured on two tracks.​

And after 47 years, Frampton Comes Alive! remains one of the top-selling live records of all time selling over 17 million worldwide.​

What an absolute thrill to have this music legend in The Back Room! Peter and I chat about his initial exposure to music and the guitar; his life-long friendship with David Bowie; his early music influences; his days playing in the bands The Herd and Humble Pie; becoming pals with George Harrison and playing on his masterpiece album All Things Must Pass; the phenomenal success of Frampton.Comes Alive!; living and creating with Inclusion Body Myositis; and his current tour. And, rumor has it there might just be a live impromptu "talk box" performance!​

I agree TX. I would add that Steve Marriott's daughter has a nice voice as well.

I’ll be a Special Guest tomorrow night at the @rockhall ‘s 2023 Induction Ceremony on @disneyplus .
Congratulations to all of the inductees!"​

Not that I'll be watching, even if I did have Disney+. The RRHoF is a joke. He should have been inducted long ago. Hopefully he couldn't care less.

Saw him last night. (11/15/23) Interesting concert. First half, to slightly more, was close to a Jazz concert. He had his Phenix for his opening number, then switched to several Gibson ES models, one Acoustic song, and a song with a Gretsch. All played clean, very Jazz or Blues. The playing was excellent, it was just arrangements of popular songs I'd never heard. And a few deep cuts.

I was beginning to get disappointed. But he finally pulled out some Les Paul's, and a Rock concert broke out. He rocked the hell out of the show the rest of the way.

I've seen him in the past, always with my significant other at the time. I hadn't planned to see this tour, but my 18 year old expressed interest. She's a bass player. And has become very intrigued by Classic Rock. So I took her. I wanted her to see him rock, so that's the main reason for my disappointment in the first half of the show.
