Peter Frampton is a British rock musician, singer, songwriter, and producer. He is best known for his 1976 live album Frampton Comes Alive! which sold over 11 million copies in the United States and has been certified 8x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Frampton was born in Bromley, Kent, England, on April 22, 1950. He began playing guitar at the age of seven and was performing professionally by the age of 14. In 1966, he joined the band The Herd, which had a hit single with the song “From the Underworld”.
In 1970, Frampton left The Herd and began a solo career. He released his debut album, Wind of Change, in 1972. The album was not a commercial success, but it did receive critical acclaim for its innovative use of the talk box, a device that allows a guitarist to make their guitar sound like a human voice.
In 1975, Frampton released his breakthrough album, Frampton, which featured the hit singles “Show Me the Way” and “Baby, I Love Your Way”. The album was a commercial success, selling over 5 million copies in the United States and spawning two Grammy Award nominations.
In 1977, Frampton released his live album, Frampton Comes Alive!, which became one of the best-selling live albums of all time. The album featured live versions of his hit songs ” Show Me the Way” and ” Baby, I Love Your Way”, as well as covers of songs by other artists, such as “Do You Feel Like We Do” by Peter Gabriel.
Frampton has continued to release albums and tour throughout his career. He has also collaborated with other artists, such as David Bowie, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr.
In 2003, Frampton was diagnosed with Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM), a rare neuromuscular disease that affects the muscles. IBM has forced Frampton to cut back on his touring and recording, but he continues to perform and record occasionally.
Peter Frampton is one of the most successful rock musicians of all time. He has sold over 100 million records worldwide and has won numerous awards, including two Grammy Awards. He is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and has been inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum.
