That's what impressed me about my dad's Big Band/Swing bands. But yes, your are so correct. I was watching The Song Remains the Same a few nights ago and just in awe over the sheer talent.
@@joelisa1274 I saw him before the album came out. They did everyone of the albums songs and there was only around 400 people there. Saw him in Greensboro N C and they came back after the album had came out and sold out quickly. We had no idea what we were into the first time and it was Great.
Problem was Peter was young and good looking. Record company wanted him to be the next "David Cassidy", but Peter, being a serious musician, wanted no part of being a "tween idol".
I'm 60 years old. I had this album as a teeny-bopper. All I can say is: Great Music Has NO Expiration Date. That being said, I'm new to this channel and enjoy watching Jamel because he seems genuine while others ... well, Jamel is just genuine. I like that. Simple as that.
Ottawa Canada Sept 7th 1975 ( Comes alive Tour) General admission floor Right in front of me.. Frampton pulls out this gadget and proceeds to blow our minds. It was a fantastic show. He was in such a wonderful mood and the vibe he had was....well....you hear it on the album. It was a special time when the stars aligned.
One thing I find unique about this performance is the crowd. They are like members of the band. They're clapping on the beat, cheering when they need to cheer, and shutting up when they need to shut up. Not all audiences are this talented...
I was told by a very famous musician, who's in a very famous band, that this whole album was recorded in the studio. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. But he swore it was true.
@@MichaelSimmons. IDK, I've seen Frampton live a few times and he's always brought the house down. He told a reporter, roughly, "If I recorded it in a studio, don't you think I would have made my vocals better." He has an underrated wit as well.
I think Jamal is one if the he best reactors because he doesn't constantly talk over the music. He LISTENS and APPRECIATES and then makes his observations.
graduated same year, and we had the best of times, as for music we had just made it through disco, michael jackson and rick james were killing it, and then these great rock bands all at the same time, its unfair lol, kidding
Believe it or not, back in the 70s they actually played this whole thing on the radio. Golden age of music. Hope the young folks find your channel and dig on this. Missing out otherwise.
Jamel, you are incredible with your capacity to enjoy great music to the fullest. So many other "reaction" videos are bland and lame. You get the feeling that the people doing the reactions are mailing it in, but not Jamel. As for Peter Frampton, the virtuosity and musicality of his playing in this live performance is breathtaking. Also, his backing musicians are exceptional, especially the keyboardist. This recording has been a favorite of mine for many years.
No matter how many times I have heard this, I still feel the hairs raise up on the back of my neck, and especially seeing Jamel react to it, knowing what was coming up! Love some Frampton!
me too. amazing. i haven't heard this for yers. but it immediately took me back to the time of my live when I listened to this every day and I mean EVERY SINGLE GOT DAMN DAY at top volume lying in bed with one speaker on each side of my head (this was back when good headphones were way too expensive for the average person to afford--I was making $4 an hour then). That was a horrible summer and I was always broke and hungry but Frampton always took me away to where I wanted to be!
I’ve seen Frampton a couple of times. At one of his concerts, I was close enough to be front and center, leaning on the stage. After the concert ended, his drummer came up to me and handed me his sticks. I still have them over 40 years later.
A standing ovation even after 44 years from a man who has never heard this song before! A beautiful thing to see. Jamal, welcome to the rabbit hole of great rock music! You get it! I salute you, man.
Comparing this to rap is like comparing opera to cussing with a beat. I won't say either is inherently better, but when you're in the mood for one you automatically have no interest in the other.
Yeah, Frampton was with Bowie on one of his tours in the late 80s... in the leaner years, I guess, when he was recovering from the accident that damaged his hand.
About 5 years ago, Frampton was touring with Steve Miller. Steve had just come of the flu and his voice was shot. Peter came out and sang most of the show for him. F'n AWESOME DUDE Murphys CA 2016
Jamal, sitting outside in my truck alone after taking my husband to the emergency room, can't go in(covid). I turned you on and it's like I'm with a friend. Thank you! You help people that you don't even know. Much Love 💗
Godspeed to you and your husband Debra, God keep you, and hold you. May his body recover, and his mind, spirit , heart and soul strengthen and thrive, I pray God pulls him and others facing what ailments have befallen them through. Take care of yourself Debra, for him and your family, God Bless 🙏
There was no party without "Frampton Comes Alive" ! But there were so many experimental bands with special sound effects that we didn't realize how special this was . The 70s were the best Years !!!
Mr. Frampton presented my dad, Cal Collins, with a lifetime achievement award in Cinci OH...I wasn't able to attend, but my family said Mr. Frampton had such grace and poise - dad was quite ill and a bit confused on stage...he passed away a few months later. Thank you, Mr. Frampton.
This album was one of the required needed to own back in the day. We had things called "house parties" that typically lasted a couple days, or until the police showed up. Those were the days.
It seemed that everyone had this album. I was a student at Howard. At a house party a student from U of Maryland put this on. All the sudden black students from Howard and white students from Maryland,Georgetown, George Washington and maybe a couple other locals schools started jamming. It was magical. Love was in the air as we used to say. Everyone just loving it and dancing together. One my most cherished memories from college.
Sweet story. The weird part is Frampton sort of “fell out of the sky.” I wouldn’t say he was *unknown* but he wasn’t a household name. Then *this*. Suddenly he was the voice of the 70s. Just caught a wave and was fire for quite a few minutes. Frampton is a mindset. He’s a moment in time. Enjoy the memory.
Paul Edwards Amazing as it sounds people thought he just fell from moon or something. But I knew of him when he was with a group called the Herd. But when he joined Humble Pie he was better known for his guitar work not his vocals. Of course when you have Steve Marriott as your lead vocalist why bother singing
Rogers Collier I was likely too young to know of his earlier work. Plus, I came from a rural community where we weren’t exactly “encouraged” to embrace rock music. Still... even in the cow pastures of my youth... Frampton was just friggin omnipresent. This album was definitely a turning point in a generation’s “mood.” All my friends had this. Lol.
I worked in the tech business in Seattle- lots and lots of people from other countries. I remember trying to explain the cultural significance of this album to American teenagers. If you were a teenager in the late 70’s, chances are, you had it. I have owned the (double) album, the CD, and now I have it in hi-res. Just amazing.
Well, you could make a case that the one you want is Lynryd Skynyrd's "One More From the Road' too. Most people had both of them back in the day. But I think you're probably right in that Frampton Comes Alive was the bigger seller.
@@Nightcrawlerfive , There were a number of fantastic Live Albums back then. Almost everyone I knew had Frampton's album, and many had some of the others, but Frampton's just seemed to be everywhere. Such good choices back then.
The 1970s were the BEST Ride i have ever been on ,,,, Smooth And ROCKY at times like this Masterpiece ,, The 70s KICKED ASS HARDER THAN A PISSED OFF DONKEY ON STEROIODS ,,,
@@theodoreritola9758 I remember that decade well. It was a wild one, and I'd say it was the Party Decade. I got higher than heck with my band mates in high school, on a concert tour we took. Plus the drive-in movies, smoking Hawaiian and drinking Boones Farm. Fun days.
He's using a Talk Box. It's a tube connected to a guitar pedal like device. You sing into the tube and it distorts the sound of the guitar with your voice. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_box
@@bmbirdsong actually it makes the sound from the guitar and plays it through the tube into your mouth then you just voice the words you want to make the sound make your not even making noise at all the guitar is
I saw him when he was with Humble Pie, they were the opening act for Grand Funk Railroad at Shea Stadium in NYC. I was saying who were these clowns I came to see Grand Funk Railroad after all. I think it was 1971 so I was 18. Yea I agree this album was great!!
that is the BIG DIFFERENCE when you go to a concert and you see a lot of virtuoso improvisation let alone the unexpected compared to a studio album!!!!!!!
Live baby. No autotune. Just feeling. This was overplayed when new but is a genuine 70's classic. It has aged extraordinarily well. As have I if I do say so.
There's a video on yt about the talk box. A guy in England claims he started making them in the 50s, and he gave Frampton his first one. Frampton was interviewed and said he had his made in the States.
Your reaction to this is very much like my reaction to hearing this for the first time, in the barracks at an Air Base in Germany in 1976. My roommate said, “You’ve got to hear this.” Based on some of his musical tastes, I wasn’t expecting much, but this just blew me away. Still one of my all-time favorites.
This was number 1 album summer of 1976, met my wife August of that year. Many late nights of Frampton. Married 45 years now. Takes me back to falling in love.
Child of the 70s as I am (I was 19 when this came out) I knew of no one among my friends who did not own a copy of this album. It was almost obligatory. Thanks for posting!!
I've been to over 2 or 3 hundred shows, and this performance @ MSG in October of 1976 was absolutely one of the top five! He blew the frikkin' roof off of The Garden!!
Little known fact, by the end of the 1970s, they had, in fact, already grooved all the grooves. This is why few people have successfully grooved in the last 40 years. If elected President, I will immediately sign an executive order to release new grooves from the Strategic Groove Reserve.
@@HtotheC123 To make this groovement a reality, all Americans must join together in common purpose. This, my fellow Americans, is the defining challenge of our generation. We must groove, or perish. Let the words of our Founders ring in every heart, "United we groove, divided we Bieber."
Along with Boston's debut album. I became an instant diehard Foreigner fan around this time period. One of my high school teacher's nephews was Sib Hashien who was the original drummer for Boston.
Unless you were alive when this came out you’ve got NO IDEA just how HUGE it was! Everyone bought this album. Until I saw this I forgot about it! Lol! I was in Jr High... my God was it that long ago? You go Jamel!
I love how all you can hear is the cheering and you have no idea whats coming next. Such a genuine reaction. Watching you feel good about music makes me feel good about music. Thank you.
I don't think you need to be from that era to appreciate 70s rock music! It seems to me everyone agrees that 70s music is the sh** !! If you're having a party and don't know what to play cuz you got a diverse crowd? '70s Rock! 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
I think I read somewhere that Joe Walsh gave him his first talk box. Joe was introduced to it by a country artist. Many guys back then made their own which would explain why people think Frampton invited it.
@@yosemitesam6945 So did Chakka Kahn on "Tell me something good". But it is very subtle you have to listen for it. During the part where she says.. "Got no time".
This is one of the greatest live recording, ever. Great song, great instrumentalist, great singer all one person. People like Peter Frampton are very few and very far between.
That's what I'm talking about! Great memories of playing this over and over. What a performance!!!!!❤️❤️🎵🎵🎵 I had a lump in my throat, watching you enjoy this so much. Thanks, incredible!!
Here's a tune recorded live and captivated the whole crowd and everyone listening to it on their turntables. This song got everybody's undevided attention until the very last note. You can't do that today!
I don't even listen to the radio no longer think God for you tube and Pandora. The last time I listened to the radio was nine years ago it was a classic rock in roll station and the Dj named Max Oates. He had my name all over the world for nine years people from all over the world were calling him to ask about me I even had singers give me shout outs because their music was flying off the shelves because people had for gotten about songs or for got who sung what. My name was on the Jay Leno show twice for what reason I didn't know my sister's boyfriend told me about it. Even though iam black I listen to all kinds of good old music even country music like Harper valley PTA even had him play gospel music and country music plus soul and rock and people told him to play anything I requested iam the only one on my job can play music even at the seven eleven. They will let me stay there in play music as loud as I want to lol it's run by India people. No matter how late it is the police will run everyone away but me and than they will dance sometime to the music I be playing on my job it be all kinds of race dance to my music kids also some times the customers won't go in to the restaurant until I go inside or leave to go home LoL some of the people don't even speak English but they be jamming 🐒lok
You should take a listen to the Steve Miller Band .. some ideas The Joker, Take the Money and Run, Jet Airliner, Jungle Love They are in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.
Everyone and I mean everyone had this album. Remembering the days of misspent youth is why I listen to these reactions. Just trying to catch a glimpse of the awe I had back in the day allows me to relive a bit of that. Good memories are good for the soul and with all the drama in the world now, we need all the good vibes we can send out into the world.
That was life in rhe 70's baby. Bell bottoms, platform shoes, the advent of the "underground" FM stations that would play the whole song. What a time to be alive...
Man I lived it. The 70's is when i grew up. I lived all of this stuff. 5 in 1970. I feel very honored that I got to experience one of the greatest eras in rock music. Yes bell bottoms, Raleigh Choppers, CB radios. It was a great time to grow up. We had no internet but it didn't matter. My brother had this album on 8 track. I used to have a T shirt of the album in 76
When my kid's were young and I had them and their friends in the car and they was acting up and being loud and driving me half crazy, I put this song on and they all shut up and listened to the whole thing without a word.😁 Worked like a charm!
I'm having a 70's flashback....my turntable, big headphones, laying in the bedroom floor. I guess I was on Junior High School... anybody else remember Jr Highs ??? I miss buying albums and listening start to finish, like they were made to be heard. They tell a story !!!! LOVE it !!!!
I used to work security for concerts. Frampton was opening Journey. I arrived early to hear the sound checks and get my ducks in a row for that nights show. Journey was late and Frampton noodling with his band on stage and I sat in the front row and was loving it. He stopped for a moment and pointed to me and said "An Audience!" and chuckled. They then went into this song and played the whole thing very close to how it is here, but with a bit less voice box stuff. It was just awesome.
I was totally blown away the first time I ever heard this when it came up on my car radio as I was driving--I'm STILL blown away every time I hear it today, decades later!!! PURE GENIUS!!! Can't stop smiling!!!
17golfstar Clearly you’re a dumb ass that doesn’t have a clue what you are talking about, I’ve seen Frampton 10 times, starting in the 70s right up until two years ago you imbecile, the only thing the whole world just seen is that you’re a ignorant buffoon!
The day of my mom's funeral was a sad and somber occasion. 500 of her family, friends and co-workers filled the pews and aisles. A "standing room only" sendoff for a very much loved, respected and beautiful Italian woman. During a long keyboard solo in the middle of a hymn, with tears streaming down my cheeks, I turned completely around to face my cousin. In my best British accent I blurted out, "Bob Mayo on the key boooards....Bob Mayo" The whole section erupted in laughter thru their tears. Even after 15 years have passed, people still thank me for bringing some comedy into a sad room. Laughter, simply the best medicine ever!
I can listen to that song over and over he was a man ahead of his time and truly made a song that will always be unique that stands alone from the rest of them. thank you Peter for. giving us that song.
How many of us were waiting to see Jamel’s reaction at the 9 minute mark? I wanted to watch just how high his eyebrows would go!😂
At 4:30 I’m thinking, ‘Oh my brother, have no idea what’s coming...’
@@dougbrod5771 Exactly what I was thinking also!!
Yes!
I was waiting! Too bad he lost all of those Golden Locks. I was waiting so long for this reaction. 🤟🏽🎸
Skipped right to it just to see his reaction
This song is like a religious experience. I'm proud to be a 70s kid.
me too
This is one of the songs you play if someone asks what were the 70s like
YES!
It is especially the final minutes
Everyone in my high school class had this album..
Modern technology will NEVER replace true musicians. I am so grateful I was raised on real music.
A MF’ing men
👏👏👏👏👏👏
That's what impressed me about my dad's Big Band/Swing bands. But yes, your are so correct. I was watching The Song Remains the Same a few nights ago and just in awe over the sheer talent.
The whole album was from one night. No computers, no auto-tune. God given talent and inspiration..
It was from multiple concerts. I think 3 or 4 in total. Every song is amazing though
I thought the same 97irishflyer , but when they put this album together with the best live performances, Peter Frampton became a superstar!
Amen to that and praise God for that talent.
Amazingly it was there first night as a headliner. Peter said he forgot the tape was rolling.
@@joelisa1274 I saw him before the album came out. They did everyone of the albums songs and there was only around 400 people there. Saw him in Greensboro N C and they came back after the album had came out and sold out quickly. We had no idea what we were into the first time and it was Great.
Frampton starts on the talk box and Jamel's eyes open wide. Welcome to my teenage years.
L Idlett it blew us away and honestly still does
yes yes yes.... our teenage years!
@@deborahchesser7375 in all honesty I was not a Frampton fan. I did like some of his songs. He just did not have the hard edge i preferred.
L Idlett yeh this one was pretty much his claim to fame. I like the heavier bands too, Sabbath, Preist, Maiden etc.
@@deborahchesser7375 Now were talking. Given to choice between Nazareth or Frampton. My answer was always Nazareth
Arguably, one of THE BEST live performances EVER RECORDED.. PERIOD..
This one and Bob Seger Double Live Bullet
I would put this at #1 and Queen at Live Aid in 1985 at #2.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻WORD!!!! Period...😆
He was actually sick and running a fever that night. He literally put the fire into those chords!
Agree 100% 2Nu!!!
Peter's guitar chops were overlooked in the age of the great players. He didn't shred on every song, but when he let it loose, he was great.
Totally true that he is overlooked
The music business used him for a One Hit Wonder.... They were wrong. Should have let him be him.
@trha2222 Because he doesn't write songs about his breakup with boyfriends... LOL. You've got a point.
Hot take: the song before this on the album, "Lines On My Face," is even better.
Problem was Peter was young and good looking. Record company wanted him to be the next "David Cassidy", but Peter, being a serious musician, wanted no part of being a "tween idol".
I'm 60 years old. I had this album as a teeny-bopper. All I can say is: Great Music Has NO Expiration Date.

So well said! Your right great music has no expiration date.🥰
In my honest opinion one of the most classic rock live tracks in music history 1976, what a year for music.
We were so lucky! We had the best soundtrack for our teen years.
Nancy so right you are. I was born in 62 and most kids today haven’t a clue (including my own lol)
Was only 8 then. I remember my folks having this album.

Right in front of me.. Frampton pulls out this gadget and proceeds to blow our minds.
It was a fantastic show. He was in such a wonderful mood and the vibe he had was....well....you hear it on the album. It was a special time when the stars aligned.
Most iconic concert of the decade, I think.
If you like the voice box Jamal, check out Joe Walsh Rocky Mountain Way....

Also "Mindbender" by Stillwater.
Yes, Joe Walsh!
Check out everything by Joe Walsh, especially his band The James Gang.
One thing I find unique about this performance is the crowd. They are like members of the band. They're clapping on the beat, cheering when they need to cheer, and shutting up when they need to shut up. Not all audiences are this talented...
I hear you but the crowd noise was made up in a studio. All live albums do that. Some are super cheesy and obvious

It's an all time classic. It's one of those albums we played until we wore the grooves off of it.
@@redarmysoja Wore out the grooves on a couple of albums ... went through 4-5 tapes ... and now have it on mp3 ... good music was never expensive!!!
Right??! So many videos, when he pauses and comments, I think, “oh Jamal...... you don’t even KNOW what’s coming!” 🤣
One of theee most underrated guitarist of all time. Period.
I agree with you . Just curious who are the other 2
croman1 I was making a point by saying “theee” not three 😀
This album still sounds great CRANKED at an outdoor setting.
Lol! I read it as Three at first! I'm going to blame my advanced age and cataracts! Lolol
Let me mention another criminally underrated guitarist - Martin Barre from Jethro Tull. He could pay anything, and, being in Tull, he HAD to.
I think Jamal is one if the he best reactors because he doesn't constantly talk over the music. He LISTENS and APPRECIATES and then makes his observations.
I just discovered him tonight and I'm loving the videos!
I've seen those reactors who put their own interpretation or how they think it is. Just appreciate the music people!
Can tell he has a good heart. An open mind. And he loves music. His observations are thoughtful.
And he doesn't do the same boring, fake reactions everytime.
I agree! I think he is the best human. He makes me smile at my tv or phone. He’s bopping along like I am when no one else is around.
1976 dude I graduated in 79. This is what I grew up with this damn music there ever was.

I get the goosebumps

That was a horrible summer and I was always broke and hungry but Frampton always took me away to where I wanted to be!
I still have goose bumps after listening to it.
Yup, I still get goosebumps too.
I’ve seen Frampton a couple of times. At one of his concerts, I was close enough to be front and center, leaning on the stage. After the concert ended, his drummer came up to me and handed me his sticks. I still have them over 40 years later.
of the billions of songs ever written, this has to be top ten...
Irrefutably😂!
A standing ovation even after 44 years from a man who has never heard this song before! A beautiful thing to see. Jamal, welcome to the rabbit hole of great rock music! You get it! I salute you, man.
Watching Jamel groove to this was a high point of my day, for sure.
Yeah, he gets it!
Comparing this to rap is like comparing opera to cussing with a beat. I won't say either is inherently better, but when you're in the mood for one you automatically have no interest in the other.
Right?! It damn near brings me to tears for real! 🙏🏻
I recently saw Frampton and his kick-ass band perform this live...it never gets old.
Fun fact: Peter Frampton’s dad was David Bowie’s art teacher. ⭐️
Near me in South East London in Beckenham .
Anyway it's 4.10AM in London and time for bed :)
Yeah, Frampton was with Bowie on one of his tours in the late 80s... in the leaner years, I guess, when he was recovering from the accident that damaged his hand.
No way...how cool is that?!
Sometimes the world can be so small, it's scary!
At Art College. I believe they were in the same class , as welll :)
About 5 years ago, Frampton was touring with Steve Miller. Steve had just come of the flu and his voice was shot. Peter came out and sang most of the show for him. F'n AWESOME DUDE

The show was in Murphys? I lived near there. Small world; take care!

Jose M is correct- it’s Clapton. But Frampton was unseated by Garth Brooks.
I also bought the vinyl twice and the CD.
Jamal, sitting outside in my truck alone after taking my husband to the emergency room, can't go in(covid). I turned you on and it's like I'm with a friend. Thank you! You help people that you don't even know.
Much Love 💗
Debra Danner Prayers for your hubby🙏🏻❣️

An album everyone wore out and had to buy it again, sometimes 3 times it was that freaking Awesome 😁🎧❤🎶
Had to buy the Album twice and tape for my car three times, Not to mention blowing a set of Mindblower Speakers.
i think this album was issued to everyone in the suburbs where i lived...
@@bitrunner2000 Everybody and their mom had Frampton Comes Alive!
So true
Only cassette I wore out more was Appetite for Destruction.
If any audio clip ever deserved a standing ovation......its this one!!!!
My God, we had the BEST music in the 70's. We were so lucky. Thanks Jamal. So glad you were able to enjoy it.
Whenever I watch Jamel it makes me feel like this is the first time im hearing these tunes. It breathes new life into my ears and heart.
Me too. That's why I love watching Jamel, reminds me of when I first heard these songs and why I loved our music.
So true guys so true! 😊
Totally agree!!!
Its great, isn't it!
Riiiiight?! Makes my heart sing with joy!
One of the best live songs in the entire history of music
Totally agree!
Guitar is epic.
There was no party without "Frampton Comes Alive" ! But there were so many experimental bands with special sound effects that we didn't realize how special this was . The 70s were the best Years !!!
Mr. Frampton presented my dad, Cal Collins, with a lifetime achievement award in Cinci OH...I wasn't able to attend, but my family said Mr. Frampton had such grace and poise - dad was quite ill and a bit confused on stage...he passed away a few months later. Thank you, Mr. Frampton.
Simply one of the greatest live rock performances in the history of the world.
Amen
Honestly I would argue the greatest of all time. The final minutes were unworldly
100% agreed with you!
That transition at 13:00 always gave me chills with the volume on hi.
Volume on Hi?
Don't you mean turned up to 11?
Same here.
B. Wyse Yes, in a Tesla, the volume goes up to 11! Really!
Incredible transition. One of the best.
This album was one of the required needed to own back in the day. We had things called "house parties" that typically lasted a couple days, or until the police showed up. Those were the days.
From an era when a high school kid with a decent after school job could still afford a couple of concert tickets and a little weed.
And a lot of times we would all bring albums to share…..
Any band worth their salt released a live recording in the 70's. 'Frampton Comes Alive' was a monster success.
AND Bostons LP BOSTON 1976 7 DEEZ ROCKED
It seemed that everyone had this album. I was a student at Howard. At a house party a student from U of Maryland put this on. All the sudden black students from Howard and white students from Maryland,Georgetown, George Washington and maybe a couple other locals schools started jamming. It was magical. Love was in the air as we used to say. Everyone just loving it and dancing together. One my most cherished memories from college.
Sweet story. The weird part is Frampton sort of “fell out of the sky.” I wouldn’t say he was *unknown* but he wasn’t a household name. Then *this*. Suddenly he was the voice of the 70s. Just caught a wave and was fire for quite a few minutes. Frampton is a mindset. He’s a moment in time. Enjoy the memory.
Paul Edwards Amazing as it sounds people thought he just fell from moon or something. But I knew of him when he was with a group called the Herd. But when he joined Humble Pie he was better known for his guitar work not his vocals. Of course when you have Steve Marriott as your lead vocalist why bother singing
Rogers Collier I was likely too young to know of his earlier work. Plus, I came from a rural community where we weren’t exactly “encouraged” to embrace rock music. Still... even in the cow pastures of my youth... Frampton was just friggin omnipresent. This album was definitely a turning point in a generation’s “mood.” All my friends had this. Lol.
I worked in the tech business in Seattle- lots and lots of people from other countries. I remember trying to explain the cultural significance of this album to American teenagers. If you were a teenager in the late 70’s, chances are, you had it. I have owned the (double) album, the CD, and now I have it in hi-res. Just amazing.
If you only had one LIVE album back then, THIS was the one to have.
The definitive live album back then.
Still might be.........
I think you're right
The other live album was Hot August Night... Neil Diamond Crunchy Granola Suite...what a way to open an album!
@Marco von Catfish , It was the Golden Age for music, and Live Albums
Well, you could make a case that the one you want is Lynryd Skynyrd's "One More From the Road' too. Most people had both of them back in the day. But I think you're probably right in that Frampton Comes Alive was the bigger seller.
@@Nightcrawlerfive , There were a number of fantastic Live Albums back then.
Almost everyone I knew had Frampton's album, and many had some of the others, but Frampton's just seemed to be everywhere.
Such good choices back then.
The way he makes that guitar “talk” is just some serious talent.
The 1970s were the BEST Ride i have ever been on ,,,, Smooth And ROCKY at times like this Masterpiece ,, The 70s KICKED ASS HARDER THAN A PISSED OFF DONKEY ON STEROIODS ,,,
@@theodoreritola9758 I remember that decade well. It was a wild one, and I'd say it was the Party Decade. I got higher than heck with my band mates in high school, on a concert tour we took. Plus the drive-in movies, smoking Hawaiian and drinking Boones Farm. Fun days.
He's using a Talk Box. It's a tube connected to a guitar pedal like device. You sing into the tube and it distorts the sound of the guitar with your voice. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_box
@@bmbirdsong Exactly - he is making his guitar 'talk' by a device called a 'TalkBox'.
But sure it's a great performance!
@@bmbirdsong actually it makes the sound from the guitar and plays it through the tube into your mouth then you just voice the words you want to make the sound make your not even making noise at all the guitar is
His studio albums don’t have the energy of ‘Frampton Comes Alive.’
I got the chance to cover his St. Louis show on his last tour last year. He's put some years behind him, but man, he still owned that stage.
I saw him when he was with Humble Pie, they were the opening act for Grand Funk Railroad at Shea Stadium in NYC. I was saying who were these clowns I came to see Grand Funk Railroad after all. I think it was 1971 so I was 18. Yea I agree this album was great!!
that is the BIG DIFFERENCE when you go to a concert and you see a lot of virtuoso improvisation let alone the unexpected compared to a studio album!!!!!!!
Some artists are better live than studio vice versa...
@@linuslittlefield2112 Very true
Live baby. No autotune. Just feeling. This was overplayed when new but is a genuine 70's classic. It has aged extraordinarily well. As have I if I do say so.
never thought this was overplayed! Lol
Show Me the Way was way overplayed. I don't think it's possible to overplay this song.
Frampton overplayed? Never!
This is LIVE enhanced.....Frampton's doing a bit of fibbing w/ Frampton Comes Alive. there's some perfectionist overdubs in here brothers and sisters.
I've seen Peter a few times & every time I got super excited when he did this song
The Talk Box is a musical accessory that's literally powered by Stank Face.
Great description! There should be a Stank Box brand.
@@sschmidtevalue good money making idea! Shhhhhhh!
Lololol...stank face..lololol
There's a video on yt about the talk box. A guy in England claims he started making them in the 50s, and he gave Frampton his first one. Frampton was interviewed and said he had his made in the States.
Funniest thing i have read in quite awhile. Lol
Your reaction to this is very much like my reaction to hearing this for the first time, in the barracks at an Air Base in Germany in 1976. My roommate said, “You’ve got to hear this.” Based on some of his musical tastes, I wasn’t expecting much, but this just blew me away. Still one of my all-time favorites.
This was number 1 album summer of 1976, met my wife August of that year. Many late nights of Frampton. Married 45 years now. Takes me back to falling in love.
Great to see a new generation recognize the great music of the 70's
I love seeing young dudes like you discovering and rocking to the music of my youth! Awesome! Love your channel!
I love Jamals reaction because he's almost 20 yrs younger than me remember hearing this at roller rink
Child of the 70s as I am (I was 19 when this came out) I knew of no one among my friends who did not own a copy of this album. It was almost obligatory. Thanks for posting!!
I was 14 when this came out
I've been to over 2 or 3 hundred shows, and this performance @ MSG in October of 1976 was absolutely one of the top five! He blew the frikkin' roof off of The Garden!!
Not many people make me laugh like Jamel does. I love this guy. He is truly the best with his reactions.
Tim Weir 👍🏻
True music lover!

1 of a kind.. He is infectious.. love his brightness
Played the hell out of this on my father's 8-track player growing up.. such a classic!
Little known fact, by the end of the 1970s, they had, in fact, already grooved all the grooves. This is why few people have successfully grooved in the last 40 years. If elected President, I will immediately sign an executive order to release new grooves from the Strategic Groove Reserve.
8 track player :)
@@Revelwoodie my favorite band is 311... I feel they still groove. Maybe they could head the groovement!
@@HtotheC123 To make this groovement a reality, all Americans must join together in common purpose. This, my fellow Americans, is the defining challenge of our generation. We must groove, or perish. Let the words of our Founders ring in every heart, "United we groove, divided we Bieber."
@@dgminner Dynamite Eight Track Player...
In high school everyone had this album & Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Along with Boston's debut album. I became an instant diehard Foreigner fan around this time period. One of my high school teacher's nephews was Sib Hashien who was the original drummer for Boston.
It was the album to have during my senior year along with Springsteen's Born To Run.
@@MisterLumpkin THE 70 DEEZ WERE KILLER THE BEST EVER, EVERY OTHER DECADE SHUT UP THIS IS THE MASTER ,,,
... along with Boston and AC/DC soon to follow!
@@hondaphan4172 Tom Scholz is one of the BADDEST MFers in Music... Ever... Who builds a Home Studio one Transistor at a time!!!
I just love Jamal’s reactions. It’s like reliving what we felt back then! ♥️
There's 2 lines in the song alot of people don't pick up on where he says "iwanna smoke a joint and I wanna fu** you
Unless you were alive when this came out you’ve got NO IDEA just how HUGE it was! Everyone bought this album. Until I saw this I forgot about it! Lol! I was in Jr High... my God was it that long ago? You go Jamel!
I had two copies stolen. I saw Frampton shortly before this came out. His show kicked ASS! He was third billed behind Skynard & Black Sabbath.
First time I heard this song in 1976 or 77, I jumped in my car and drove to Peaches Record Store in St. Louis and bought the album.
yes we did and ran it throught the "mind blower speakers" until they blew
Riding around high was soooo worth it!
And it was a double album, yet if I recall everyone wore out side 3
The most loved and worn album I posessed as a teen.
The first album I ever bought.
I love how all you can hear is the cheering and you have no idea whats coming next. Such a genuine reaction. Watching you feel good about music makes me feel good about music. Thank you.
Peter Frampton is one of the most gifted guitar players. He is legendary.
You should have been a teenager in the 70's Jamel. So many live concerts would have had you so energized
I don't think you need to be from that era to appreciate 70s rock music! It seems to me everyone agrees that 70s music is the sh** !! If you're having a party and don't know what to play cuz you got a diverse crowd? '70s Rock! 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Norma winton the amazing amount of talent that I saw live from 75-85 ... we were beyond lucky.
Affordable price too 🤣 same place same singer alot more expensive
Fun fact:
Remember when you did that reaction to "Black Coffee" by Humble Pie? This is the guy playing slide guitar.
Humble Pie, that song "30 Days in the Hole" lol
Humble Pie I Don't Need No Doctor
Humble Pie - Hot & Nasty
@@mabelyourmama9029 Fire! I second that emotion.
“Rollin’ Stone” love that one!!
the 70`s were the greatest decade in the history of man for music...PERIOD
TOTALY AGREE ,
HERES PROOF
Couldn't agree more. I grew up in the 70's. I can remember when my bros bought this album on cassette. We all waited for this show stopper.
80's then the 70's a close 2nd...
I couldn’t agree more!!!! The 70’s were my heyday. Was in high school when this came out.
Absolutely the greatest live album ever done by anybody in any music genre. End of discussion.
If you’ve ever mimicked the sound of a guitar while playing the air guitar, the solo is the guitar mimicking you.
😄
That's NOT a kazoo or any woodwind instrument. That's his guitar, playing through a "talk box", Frampton's own innovation. Love your reaction.
I think I read somewhere that Joe Walsh gave him his first talk box. Joe was introduced to it by a country artist. Many guys back then made their own which would explain why people think Frampton invited it.
@Jay Private would love to it used with a slide.
He didn't invent the talk box and it was used by Shaka Kahn in "Tell me something Good" 1974. But Frampton took the talk box and ran with it.
Joe Walsh used it too.
@@yosemitesam6945 So did Chakka Kahn on "Tell me something good". But it is very subtle you have to listen for it. During the part where she says.. "Got no time".
"Jamel on the straw! Jamel on the straw!!" (CHEERS)
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 🤘🏼🤘🏼
This is one of the greatest live recording, ever. Great song, great instrumentalist, great singer all one person. People like Peter Frampton are very few and very far between.
That's what I'm talking about! Great memories of playing this over and over. What a performance!!!!!❤️❤️🎵🎵🎵 I had a lump in my throat, watching you enjoy this so much. Thanks, incredible!!
You're not the only one☺
Yes Frampton forever
The hook always reminds me of Traffic's "Dear Mr. Fantasy". That's another classic you'll probably dig.
The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys is another great one.
David Moranski You took the words right out of my mouth. Low Spark of High Heeled Boys is the cut!!! Great song!!
I have asked him for BOTH repeatedly. 😁
13:01 His scream transition from his talk box tube to his regular mic is nothing short of hair-raising.
Awesome drop
Lt. Cmdr. Data Absolutely!
So true!!!
Here's a tune recorded live and captivated the whole crowd and everyone listening to it on their turntables. This song got everybody's undevided attention until the very last note. You can't do that today!
I don't even listen to the radio no longer think God for you tube and Pandora. The last time I listened to the radio was nine years ago it was a classic rock in roll station and the Dj named Max Oates. He had my name all over the world for nine years people from all over the world were calling him to ask about me I even had singers give me shout outs because their music was flying off the shelves because people had for gotten about songs or for got who sung what. My name was on the Jay Leno show twice for what reason I didn't know my sister's boyfriend told me about it. Even though iam black I listen to all kinds of good old music even country music like Harper valley PTA even had him play gospel music and country music plus soul and rock and people told him to play anything I requested iam the only one on my job can play music even at the seven eleven. They will let me stay there in play music as loud as I want to lol it's run by India people. No matter how late it is the police will run everyone away but me and than they will dance sometime to the music I be playing on my job it be all kinds of race dance to my music kids also some times the customers won't go in to the restaurant until I go inside or leave to go home LoL some of the people don't even speak English but they be jamming 🐒lok
Everyone in the car gets quiet when I turn this one up.
Whatever it was waits until the song is over.
...as it should be!
YES 👍🏽!!!!
You should take a listen to the Steve Miller Band .. some ideas The Joker, Take the Money and Run, Jet Airliner, Jungle Love
They are in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.
He has already.
Frampton and Steve Miller tour together - I saw them in Bend Oregon. Great show!
Yes Fly Like an Eagle album came out in 1976 also
Abracadabra....:)
Has he done Steve Miller? I am not so sure. If he has I will search it up. If not, that rabbit hole is deep @Jamel_AKA_Jamal 👍🏻😁
Everyone and I mean everyone had this album. Remembering the days of misspent youth is why I listen to these reactions. Just trying to catch a glimpse of the awe I had back in the day allows me to relive a bit of that. Good memories are good for the soul and with all the drama in the world now, we need all the good vibes we can send out into the world.
That was life in rhe 70's baby. Bell bottoms, platform shoes, the advent of the "underground" FM stations that would play the whole song. What a time to be alive...
Man I lived it. The 70's is when i grew up. I lived all of this stuff. 5 in 1970. I feel very honored that I got to experience one of the greatest eras in rock music. Yes bell bottoms, Raleigh Choppers, CB radios. It was a great time to grow up. We had no internet but it didn't matter. My brother had this album on 8 track. I used to have a T shirt of the album in 76
When my kid's were young and I had them and their friends in the car and they was acting up and being loud and driving me half crazy, I put this song on and they all shut up and listened to the whole thing without a word.😁 Worked like a charm!
I know, right? A real rock masterpiece, performed flawlessly, and recorded so very well.
AND LIVE AND NO AUTO TUNE
One of the very rare times the live version is better than the studio version.
Too true!
Amen.
absolutely
@Cregg Ziarnko To be fair, this album was so heavily augmented in the studio, it might as well have been a studio album.
Mile High Stadium Denver 1976!
This is the greatest live album of all time. Prove me wrong. ;)
I'm having a 70's flashback....my turntable, big headphones, laying in the bedroom floor. I guess I was on Junior High School... anybody else remember Jr Highs ??? I miss buying albums and listening start to finish, like they were made to be heard. They tell a story !!!! LOVE it !!!!
I remember
We must be same age
This should be on everyone's must play list!
It is, I have this on my playlist entitled: CREAM which have all classic and psychedelic rock
Was in high school when this came out it was on everybody’s play list didn’t matter black,white,brown had to be the unofficial party anthem.
Good times. Breaks my heart to see what's happening now.
So true!
On playlists before there were playlists
That ending! Frampton brings it home like a boss!
Like Wayne Campbell said in the movie “Wayne’s World”, this album was practically distributed to the masses in the 1970s.
It came in the mail with samples of tide 😆 lol.
Robert Schneider 😂🤣😂🤣
Between this one and Fleetwood Mac you hit two of the biggest albums of the 70's. Great stuff!
@ted ritola I think I had em all.. except led Zeppelin #4 and my girlfriend had that one 😅
This was the live monster of the time sales wise. Thank all those crazy teen gals for buying the album by the millions.
And if adds one from "Dark Side of the Moon" - how much Platinum is that?
@@michaelloveland1330 its Tuesday afternoon where I am 👍
@@wilburjunior9949 Wednesday morning here in Taiwan.
I used to work security for concerts. Frampton was opening Journey. I arrived early to hear the sound checks and get my ducks in a row for that nights show. Journey was late and Frampton noodling with his band on stage and I sat in the front row and was loving it. He stopped for a moment and pointed to me and said "An Audience!" and chuckled. They then went into this song and played the whole thing very close to how it is here, but with a bit less voice box stuff. It was just awesome.
if peter frampton pointed me out to a huge crowd like that i’d faint
When he lights it up on the last solo... Chills.
Lucky man.
I loved you in Jaws.
@@roquefortfiles It didn't end well for me.
I was totally blown away the first time I ever heard this when it came up on my car radio as I was driving--I'm STILL blown away every time I hear it today, decades later!!! PURE GENIUS!!! Can't stop smiling!!!
Jamel, a must for a master guitarist with the box...Joe Walsh (of the Eagles): Rocky Mountain Way!
Or do "The Bomber" from when Joe Walsh was in the James Gang - EPIC ! !
Agree!!!!
Pink Floyd’s Keep Talking
Let’s not forget that one thing we hear in Life’s Been Good!!
@@thatoneguyagain2252 the James gang is great but the best "The Bomber" is definitely Motorhead!
Many times my question was " where the hell is my car?" Good Times!
LOL I like your name....
How the hell did I get here.. lol
For me it was "why is my face stuck to the floor?"
Frampton is an underrated guitar player, he’s classically trained and incredible
Underrated by whom? Just because you only discovered him now doesn’t mean the rest of the world is ignorant
17golfstar Clearly you’re a dumb ass that doesn’t have a clue what you are talking about, I’ve seen Frampton 10 times, starting in the 70s right up until two years ago you imbecile, the only thing the whole world just seen is that you’re a ignorant buffoon!
MB wow! You are angry!
Shawney32123 😭❄️
I agree! 💘💘💯💯💯💯💯
for those of us who know this song , we wait impatiently for the best part reaction ..LOL
The day of my mom's funeral was a sad and somber occasion. 500 of her family, friends and co-workers filled the pews and aisles. A "standing room only" sendoff for a very much loved, respected and beautiful Italian woman. During a long keyboard solo in the middle of a hymn, with tears streaming down my cheeks, I turned completely around to face my cousin. In my best British accent I blurted out, "Bob Mayo on the key boooards....Bob Mayo"
The whole section erupted in laughter thru their tears. Even after 15 years have passed, people still thank me for bringing some comedy into a sad room.
Laughter, simply the best medicine ever!
Tayo Lopes amen!
Reading this story, thinking of my mom’s funeral, with tears starting to well up in my eyes, this made me laugh out loud. THANK YOU!!!
Celebration of life.
Funerals should celebrate their lives and not morn their passings.
I'm sure, somewhere up there, you made your Mama smile...
Hell yeah Peter got him out of his chair. Lol. Knew he would.
This is a total 🎸toke up blacklight and bong hit classic 🎼🎼🎼😍😍💙🎸🎵
Lol, yep... I can almost smell it!
🤣😂🤣😂😎✌
I can listen to that song over and over he was a man ahead of his time and truly made a song that will always be unique that stands alone from the rest of them. thank you Peter for. giving us that song.
