You Are What You Read

Frampton comes alive: Peter Frampton on his creative life


Listen Later

On this week’s episode of You Are What You Read, we are joined by one of the most celebrated guitarists in rock history, Peter Frampton, for a conversation about his memoir, Do You Feel Like I Do? Peter’s 1976 album, Frampton Comes Alive!, remains one of the top-selling live records of all time. He co-founded one of the first supergroups, the seminal rock act Humble Pie, and he has collaborated with legends… George Harrison, David Bowie, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bill Wyman, Ringo Starr, and most recently with the great Dolly Parton. In 2007, Peter won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Album for Fingerprints, and in 2014 he was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame. In this conversation, Peter tells us about his path to stardom from an early age… his enduring friendship with David Bowie…as schoolmates and later on, as performers. He also tells us about the obstacles he’s had to overcome to continue to play and pour his heart into music.
