We were all blown away when this came out in ‘76. Literally EVERYONE had this album. Note: you could check out literally any “Midnight Special” from the 70s and there were usually 3 acts (I think.) you can see great live performances, very well produced, and we all stayed up every Friday Night to watch these shows. They’re all amazing. There was every great musical act from rock to country to R&B and disco. Whatever was hot at the time, they would be on this show.
I was 12 years old when I saw this live on The Midnight Special and I was a drummer at the time. It was the most revolutionary and groundbreaking musical performance we had ever seen. It is great to know that it is still turning heads today. Frampton's use of the voice box was awe inspiring.
He was inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame recently. check out the performance. he has some kind of debilitating disease now. but he still does the songs sitting. what a champ. Peter Frampton RRHOF performance.
Frampton had a unique problem. While lots of people were coming to his shows, nobody was really lining up to buy his albums. So what to do? Finally, the obvious dawned on him. “I need to release a live album!” He released Frampton Comes Alive. It was a Godzilla success. And the world was never the same again.
First album I ever bought with my own money, on sale for $4.99 at Cat's Records. I played the $#!+ out of those disks. It is still, I believe, the best selling live album ever.
Peter has a great autobiography on audiobook. He’s very likeable but was naive and careless about his own career. It slowed him. He’ll say it was Sgt Pepper remake that did it.
I saw Peter do this song at the L.A. Forum in 1977. Frampton played a guitar solo, then a piano solo, then a drum solo in the same song… a 30 minute version of this song….AMAZING
This version is good, however the version from Frampton Comes Alive is really the version to listen to. Classic tune that rocked the airwaves when I was a kid.
Will listen again as I used to hear it on radio in 80s & 90s and was un-phased, especially after the first time. But this must be at least the 5th reaction I've watched to this same performance, and I've enjoyed them all and been duly impressed, especially with the guitar, and only the last two times with the drumming.
This was my first time sitting in with you fellas, thank you for allowing me to do that! I enjoyed the time i spent here with you so i subscribed and left a like for you while I was here! I loved your reaction to the talkbox, Peter was the best at the talkbox! I used to listen to this album so much "Frampton Comes Alive". He was the master!
Your reactions when Frampton started using the talk box were priceless - a big part of the fun of coming to your channel. Thanks for tackling Do You Feel Like We Do!
Most kids at school were talking bout the guy that made his guitar talk! We made silkscreen “FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE” shirts and posters in Graphic arts class for anyone that wanted one. Great song!!!
That’s one hell of a solo! I played this for my 13 year old son when I was driving him to a swim meet and I said, “take a listen to this.” Mind blown.🤯
I came here to plug Peter's more recent works, from 1990 to 2022. Really good albums. Now, Hummingbird In a Box, Fingerprints, Thank You Mr. Churchill, Peter Frampton Forgets the Words. Great albums.
I used to clean the office of the guy who invented the talk box. It was littered with Frampton (and other musicians) memorabilia. And like 200 pairs of purple chucks, in the boxes. And a cat. And this was not forty years ago it was 2010.
Great reaction guys. Ah, Peter Frampton - what a talent at such a young age. I've always thought he should be in the discussion of the best guitarists of all-time.
In the 70s, I was a teenager, and one Sunday afternoon, you could hear Peter Frampton performing at the local high school football field. Parma, Ohio, suburb of Cleveland. 😮😮❤
Gents, I recommend this song on the epic Frampton Comes Alive album. It’s a longer version with an extended solo by Bob Mayo on his Fender Rhodes electric piano and lots of great crowd noise which this tv version is missing. Love your reactions!
If you listen closely to the crowd shouts during quiet moments of this live recording, you may hear something that sounds like "Ballard High!". My high school buddy claims that was him shouting. I never quite believed him, but it sure does sound like that is what is being said.
@@wayL0ck I got to go to the Midnight Special in high school when Helen Reddy was there, but we saw David Essex instead of anybody cool lol. We were all just sitting there on the floor.
Same here. But they are left in even more awe when they watch Iron Butterfly perform butterfly Bleu. It's on the album Metamorphosis released in 1970. The talk box was first available in 69. Glen Campbell also demonstrated it on TV ( Roy Clark show Maybe) I think in 71. But I've never found it on the internet. ✌️ 🤠🏞️🐂
I'm a Black female, 61my brother had the 8 track and back in the '70's this song and "Show Me The Way" was played on the R&B radio stations. Along with Hall & Oates, Bobby Caldwell, Tina Marie.
So many great albums and artists but Frampton Comes Alive has always been one of my favorite live albums since I was a teen and it’s one of those albums that I never tire of!
Time to do some Humble Pie, during the Frampton years! It’ll be a great intro to Steve Marriott! It was soooo good to grow up in the era of the true “guitar gods”! Peace
No you don't want the studio version. Nor do you want this version. You want "THE LIVE" version and most know about that historical epic. It give me chills whenever I hear it.
I remember Peter saying somewhere that his intro of Bob that you hear on the album where he says "On the Keyboards , Bob Mayo , Bob Mayo !!" that he loved Bob's playing & that's why he would say his name twice when introducing him at his live shows .
Everyone owned this back in the day and many of us used the album cover to “seed” our weed.. This entire album rocks!! My personal favorite is “Lines on My Face”
When this song was released. I was a teenager. I am now 62 years old. Back then. Not many artist outside of the R&B genre. Crossed over. Peter Frampton crossed over with this live album. Of course the studio version of this song. Is why he crossed over. A friend of mine at the time. Introduced me to Peter Frampton. I have been in love with this every since
When this song came out in the 70s, the voice box was new. A collective WTF? Frampton is one of the most calm and confident players live. Just look at his face. Happy and his playing is total expression.
Frampton Comes Alive is the version you guys need to listen to. It's a must in every collection !!! When it came out in 1976 it was fire !!! Peter Frampton does not get the credit for his phenomenal Guitar playing.
"I would have been on my WIFE'S shoulders at Oakland Coliseum" lol lol lol. You know you've arrived when you can make references like that❤ You have also heard that talk box in that kind of music before if you had listened to a huge hit right around the same time although much harder rock, called, Hair of the Dog, by Nazareth. And it's funny because my younger sister loved both of them so much even though Peter was definitely a lot more pop than Nazareth. Also, Stan Sheldon, Peter Frampton's bass player, lived in my hometown for a while in the 90s and the 2000s, and I ate dinner with him a couple times through mutual friends and we also jammed together at a really hopping local venue one night. He's a really cool guy.
I've seen him a few times and even after all these years of playing the same songs over and over again, he plays them with the same energy and excitement that he did back in the 70's!
Would love to see them do a deep dive into the history of that guitar. From the fan giving it to him in San Francisco, to thinking he lost it in when the plane it was on crashed on the runway in South America, to it being stolen out of the wreckage and being used in S.A., to its eventual return several decades later and the Gibson shop in Nashville helping to restore it back to its glory. He named it the Phenix because of its resurrection from the fire. You can't make this stuff up, what a wild story.
Man, Frampton Comes Alive (thanks to @michaeldezego340 for the correction!) was such a monster album in the 70s, and this song was everywhere. This version is great, but definitely worth checking out one where he isn't up against the Midnight Special time limit. Another great choice you guys - peace and love from Canada!
I agree. This was not the best live video version of this tune. Love this song...put some serious wear on the vinyl, but I still have it, though the jacket is a bit worn and raggedy.
I've seen Frampton LIVE 4X and everytime was great! I remember when this came out and it was being played everywhere. Thanks guys another great reaction!
Trivia David (Jones) Bowie was graduating finishing school where he studied graphic design. He asked his professor about pursuing a music career or graphic design..He told him to follow his dream...The professors name was Prof. Frampton ,Peter Framptons father.
Another classic from The Midnight Special. This was on regular old TV and we didn't have to pay for it. You just needed an antenna on the roof. TV was free
I saw this concert when it was on tour. Peter was from Humble Pie -- one of my favorite bands. ❤ You must hear "Roadrunner" sung by the late, great Steve Marriotte!
@@tonydelapa1911 I think I might have had this on 8-track seeing that I had an 8-track player in my home stereo and car. Cassettes were kind of expensive when they first hit, plus you needed a player, more money. There were a few albums I've owned on vinyl, 8-track cassette and CD over the decades. Dark Side of the Moon and Welcome Back My Friends to the Show That Never Ends by ELP come to mind.
As reflected in the comments, back in the day we listened to this song off the Frampton Comes Alive live album. It was everywhere. If you want the true experidnce, react to this tune specifically from that album. You wont be dissapointed.
When he adds the talkbox it kills it….we are witnessing greatness.
Watching him play that guitar in sync with his voice. Perfect. Serious player.

What he said... Frampton Comes Alive ! is a Rock icon, maybe only "one" for Peter and band, but it IS an ICON.
@@stevet5266 and it played at every party
He had another problem. No matter how many times he did it live, it never was as good as the one on "Comes Alive".
I saw Peter do this song at the L.A. Forum in 1977. Frampton played a guitar solo, then a piano solo, then a drum solo in the same song… a 30 minute version of this song….AMAZING
Really enjoyed listening to your comments on Frampton.
Lines on my face....so good.

Eh, audience is way to loud on that one.
Absolutely !!!!!
One of the best debut albums of all time, and live another might be Bob seger silver bullet live cheers great reaction
10,000,000 copies in '76. A&M records was very happy.
I graduated High School in 1976. Frampton Comes Alive was one of our go-to's. Cheers!
That performance was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That guitar Frampton is playing is freaking Legend
'59 Les Paul in black - worth mega.
The Frampton Comes Alive version is on another level and literally a Rock Anthemn from the 70's.
Saw Frampton in Munich in 76 when he was doing this tour. The only musician I've ever seen who I thought was playing just for me.
Wait......me sorry I never feel like anyone else is hearing what he is playing just for me. ❤
This was my first time sitting in with you fellas, thank you for allowing me to do that! I enjoyed the time i spent here with you so i subscribed and left a like for you while I was here!

@@AirplayBeats You are entirely welcome!
Thank you for the heart, I appreciate it!
My sister just got tickets to see Frampton on 4/11/25 outside Indy. 💜💜💜
Just bought tickets for April 15 in Milwaukee!
This was a big hit and was played all over rock radio and still it today.
Ha Ha......I was waiting for that reaction. I could see it in your eyes when it happened. Pretty Cool........................
The 180degree turn is perfect timing for when the “party favours” kick in. 😂🎉
Peter is a GUITAR GOD.
I remember them blasting this all over the radio when it was released. Good times!
One of the greats

I remember watching this back in '75, every kid in high school had this album in their bedrooms, and/or in the car...thanks for the nostalgia!!!
I used to clean the office of the guy who invented the talk box. It was littered with Frampton (and other musicians) memorabilia. And like 200 pairs of purple chucks, in the boxes. And a cat.
And this was not forty years ago it was 2010.
Guys, the talk box- Peter frampton introduced it on Frampton comes alive
Underrated guitar player...dude can blaze.
One of the best party songs ever!
Listen to this on Frampton Comes Alive. It will melt your face.
Such a joyful song and Peter had a blast
Great reaction guys. Ah, Peter Frampton - what a talent at such a young age. I've always thought he should be in the discussion of the best guitarists of all-time.
The double live album was the go to for cleaning stems and seeds from your weed 😄
In the 70s, I was a teenager, and one Sunday afternoon, you could hear Peter Frampton performing at the local high school football field. Parma, Ohio, suburb of Cleveland. 😮😮❤

Peter’s a bad ass
Outstanding! Glad you went live. Again the Midnight Special rules! Thanks
This is one of those songs that was too good for the 70's... and is STILL too good for us today. 💯😎
#FRAMPTON!!!! 💯
It's always awesome to see young people's reaction when Frampton gets on the talk-box.
Same here.
But they are left in even more awe when they watch Iron Butterfly perform butterfly Bleu.
It's on the album Metamorphosis released in 1970. The talk box was first available in 69.
Glen Campbell also demonstrated it on TV ( Roy Clark show Maybe) I think in 71. But I've never found it on the internet.
✌️
🤠🏞️🐂
Peter was guitarist and backup vocalist for Humble Pie. Legend.
I'm a Black female, 61my brother had the 8 track and back in the '70's this song and "Show Me The Way" was played on the R&B radio stations. Along with Hall & Oates, Bobby Caldwell, Tina Marie.
Yes yes all true I'm from Los Angeles and it was hot bread
You need to hear the Live version from Frampton comes Alive. That was what was played on the radio back in the day..
This seems to be when he was having heavy drug problems.
So many great albums and artists but Frampton Comes Alive has always been one of my favorite live albums since I was a teen and it’s one of those albums that I never tire of!
Frampton comes Alive🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️✌🏼
Time to do some Humble Pie, during the Frampton years!
It’ll be a great intro to Steve Marriott!
It was soooo good to grow up in the era of the true “guitar gods”!
Peace
I can't think of anybody who Didn't have Frampton Comes Alive in high school.
No you don't want the studio version. Nor do you want this version. You want "THE LIVE" version and most know about that historical epic. It give me chills whenever I hear it.
The interplay between Bob Mayo on keys and Frampton on guitar is one of life's beautiful pleasures.
💯
I remember Peter saying somewhere that his intro of Bob that you hear on the album where he says "On the Keyboards , Bob Mayo , Bob Mayo !!" that he loved Bob's playing & that's why he would say his name twice when introducing him at his live shows .
Bob SLAYED on the keys. He fit right inside the pocket. Adding flare when necessary and laying back when required. Icing on the cake!
Frampton was in Humble Pie - a killer blues band with Steve Marriott- one of the greatest rock blues singers ever. “ Black Coffee”
This is the only album Frampton comes alive. I had it on album tape CD now streaming.
Honestly 1 Huge Underated Guitarist!!Saw Him in 90's&Was Blown Away!!!!So Cool to Hear Any LP That isn't Just Live 1!!Dis Man Jammed!!!Portland ME.
This guy won a Grammy for best contemporary instrumental album in 2007!
Fingerprints
Everyone owned this back in the day and many of us used the album cover to “seed” our weed..
This entire album rocks!! My personal favorite is “Lines on My Face”
So true Todd especially de-seeding the stuff we had back then.
Lines on My Face live was chills inducing. Great song!
I always de-seeded my $20 1/2 bag on Zeppelins 4th album.😁
Seeded ours with a Stones album.
Frampton was everybody's favorite guitar player instantly as soon as Frampton Comes Alive dropped!

I'm sure there are others, but the only other artist I can think of that uses it is Joe Walsh.
Actually the voice box was around before this. Go back to Jimi Hendrix's 1968 Electric Ladyland album and listen to crosstown Traffic.
@@davidhattman7649even before Hendrix. Believe it or not the 1st time was on a Country Western ballad
@@gus4u2c That is absolutely correct
Jeff Beck was using that box in the 60's
THE album every teenager had in their collection!
Frampton Comes Alive is the version you guys need to listen to. It's a must in every collection !!! When it came out in 1976 it was fire !!! Peter Frampton does not get the credit for his phenomenal Guitar playing.
Bought this album twice, wore out the first one!🔥
Framptons comes alive will have all the things you missed.

Peter Frampton. Legendary 🏆. Playing that Les Paul Custom. The Whole Album is Fantastic.
" Wife's shoulders ! " ... almost has a heart attack when you said that. Too funny !
What a beautiful Les Paul

Crazy true story. It's incredible he got it back
Frampton comes alive is a part of the soundtrack of the 70’s!!!
They were so good, live no auto-tune just talent!
I really enjoyed watching and listening to that!
That bass player is always great behind Framptons solos so funky
He was 24 at this time Frampton live one of the best selling albums of all time.
Huge in the mid 70s. Was in a band called Humble Pie
I remember Humble Pie
PERFORMANCE ROCKIN THE FILMORE. with Frampton before going Solo
And oh BTW, the Heil talk box wasn't even heard of until this album came out and he revolutionized it.
Criminally underrated guitarist.
Peter is a lovely humble man and a great songwriter and guitarist and he also went to school with David Bowie 👍
I think thats the best selling lp ever. Framton comes alive.
FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE is one of the best live albums ever!

This song was played at every party and non stop on the radio back in the day
@@dbradx My ol' brain has been making these kinds of mistakes too much lately. To quote another famous musician: What a drag it is getting old. 🤣
That song is the most memorable Talk Box performance ever.
Peter even has his own "Framptone Talkbox".
As others have said Frampton Comes Alive is a must. And yes I was one of the 100’s of thousands that fell in love with him.
I've seen Frampton LIVE 4X and everytime was great! I remember when this came out and it was being played everywhere. Thanks guys another great reaction!
My first concert. Steve Miller, Styx and Derringer all showed up as well.
Trivia David (Jones) Bowie was graduating finishing school where he studied graphic design. He asked his professor about pursuing a music career or graphic design..He told him to follow his dream...The professors name was Prof. Frampton ,Peter Framptons father.
I was 16 when this came out... was great then, is greater now... Long live the beautiful 70s and big stadium bands!!!! Never to be duplicated❤
Frampton Comes Alive is the live version you really need to listen to.
The two best baseball hats going style points 1000%
YES SO HAPPY TO HEAR YOU GENTS GET THIS ONE IN. SO HAPPY 😁 I CAPPED 😂❤YUNS WILL LOVE IT 😊
This album was a mandatory requirement to own.
Peter Frampton is a trip to watch and such an entertainer for sure!!
Another classic from The Midnight Special. This was on regular old TV and we didn't have to pay for it. You just needed an antenna on the roof. TV was free
Saw Frampton in 2018 and 2019. Not only is he a phenomenal musician but he seems like such a nice down to earth guy
Afew years Ago I found him on Instagram, After I told him how his music came into my life he commented back and I know it was him phenomenal person.
@@jackieharris2854 that's really nice! he really is a kind person and he truly loves performing.
I saw this concert when it was on tour. Peter was from Humble Pie -- one of my favorite bands. ❤ You must hear "Roadrunner" sung by the late, great Steve Marriotte!
Siiick!!
This album "Frampton Comes Alive!" was a must have back in the seventies. I know, I had my copy!, and probably watched this episode too
Cassette for the car, LP for home! I think Seger’s Live Bullet was the only other live album I had both places.
