Frampton?

AdNauseam	Date: September 5, 2006 @ 6:18 AM Does anyone else like Peter Frampton? So far it's a guilty pleasure litening to an old Frampton Comes Alive! album, knowing that my dad and I are the only people in the state who like him.
Rikki27	Date: September 5, 2006 @ 6:23 AM theres one song i listen to occasionally...cant remember its name though lol
AdNauseam	Date: September 5, 2006 @ 6:34 AM My favorite is that old standby, Do You Feel Like We Do.
Distilled1	Date: September 5, 2006 @ 6:58 AM I do and that LP is good I should pull in and the turntable out and burn it to CD
GeneHilbert	Date: September 5, 2006 @ 10:04 AM I saw Frampton in the 80's with Heart. That boy can play a guitar.... He could do it then and he can do it now.....
imemine	Date: September 5, 2006 @ 9:32 PM Frampton Comes Alive! Excellent album to clean out your seeds as I recall!
leedsquietman	Date: September 6, 2006 @ 5:06 AM I like Frampton Comes Alive, decent album. He's most famous for Do You Feel Like We Do and Baby I Love Your Way. That and Todd Rundgren are guilty pleasures of mine where 70's music is concerned...
EchoMinor	Date: September 6, 2006 @ 10:30 AM i love his playing and his has some good charisma. seems like a family kind of guy.
DrUmMeR-GuY	Date: September 6, 2006 @ 10:48 PM gotta love, feel like we do! his talk box is superb and well built!
IommiGOD	Date: October 23, 2006 @ 10:57 PM Nothing wrong with good old Frampton.
Snoogans775	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 1:13 AM I just saw him dos ome of his new "fingerprints" stuff on the tube. he's got some really cool effects with his voice and guitar mixed together. I think he jsut uses his uitar as a vocoder for his voice. is that the same thing as the talkbox? pretty facy vocoder for that time period if that's the case.
mattbanx	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 2:03 AM Talented musician that I did'nt mind listening to even though my friends and school mates liked piss, oil, and vinegar thrash metal. And oh, I liked it too. Unfortunately Frampton's live album overshadows his fine studio productions. "Frampton Comes Alive" was actually a live best of colleciton of his first four albums. I also have to admit that I liked that late seventies mellow rocker "Im In You". Peter Frampton was an equally great songwriter as well as performer. I think I am going to check to see if he has done any recent works.
zedsalt	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 10:39 AM The Vocoderesque effect on his old live albums- I'm pretty sure that was nothing more than an ElectroHarmonix Golden Throat, a tiny amp broadcasting through a plastic tube that he held in his mouth. Justinother1 made one out of an old styrofoam shipping container, a Radio Shack mini amp, and a piece of tubing. Sounds great!
GeneHilbert	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 11:48 AM Frampton and Walsh used the Heil talk box
zedsalt	Date: January 6, 2007 @ 10:32 AM A Heil, that's right! I kept trying to come up with the name, and all I could think of was "Heath", as in the junior electrician kits. Same basic concept, though, a simple physical manipulation of moving sound.
zedsalt	Date: January 6, 2007 @ 10:35 AM They make one now called the Banshee, which I'm told doesn't require an amp, and there's another out that reportedly doesn't require a mic, but uses some kind of sensor at the end of the tube...
GeneHilbert	Date: January 6, 2007 @ 11:17 AM Heil sold the design to Dunlop, but I think I remember reading some where that Bob Heil was making them again. I remember Heath kits, an old band of mine had a couple. Big, heavy as shit, but man those things would crank it out……. Those were the days of being strong in the back and thick in the head (some things never change). Carrying all of that shit around, Heath kits & Crown amps, Voice of the Theater & Klipsch cabinets.
