In case you haven't heard, Peter has been touring and revisiting/playing his entire blockbuster 70's album for the first half of the evening's performance. Why do I feel compelled write? Well, "Frampton Comes Alive" was a HUGE guitar influence for me. I remember going over some of his songs as a youngster with my guitar teacher back home in Downey and talking about the scales PF was using. And I sang all the ballads, too. I wore my record (vinyl!) out!!
And how could I not buy the CD recording of the very show that I attended?! Especially when he makes sure to reference "Riverside" in his songs...
By the way...
Did you see the photo I took with Peter at the NAMM Show in 2010?

Unfortunately I did NOT sit this close. Not having ever seen him live, I was real glad I got the chance. And I had no idea how cool the material from his latest instrumental CD was!
Fun!
