Dannyalcatraz Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Unfortunately, Peter Frampton has been diagnosed with a degenerative muscle disorder. Apparently, this tour will be his last. https://news.yahoo.com/guitarist-peter-frampton-reveals-degenerative-muscle-disease-170653354.html Thank you, Mr. Frampton, for all of the great tunes!

Larryz Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 It was a sad day in the news today when I heard about Peter Frampton's diagnosis. I wish him all the best and have long considered him a great and talented artist... Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitefang Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Yeah, that sucks. Was never a BIG fan, but never a "non-fan" either. His CHOPS too good to really NOT like him!

bbqbob Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 This is really a bummer. His music was part of the palette that made up what I listened to in my early 20s. He was a big part of FM radio in the mid 70s and he got regular spin on turntables at parties everywhere. He has some good songs and great guitar licks.

Caevan O’Shite Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I was sorry to see that news earlier. We might go see him this July 3rd...

desertbluesman Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I saw Frampton & Band live at the Celebrity Theater in Phoenix a half dozen (or more) years back. It was a great show, the music was done in such a craftsman like fashion. All the players were great that night including Framptons playing. We wish him the very best, and maybe they can come up with a bit of a cure before too long. dbm If it sounds good, it is good !! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=143231&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipclone 1 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Didn`t someone post a vid of Keith Urban`s end of year tribute to artists we lost last year, and Peter F. came out and did some tasty playing? sad to hear of this, I hope he does some great tracks first that will crown his career.

whitefang Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Y'know what sorta bums me out too? It really DON'T seem that long ago when you couldn't find anybody who DIDN'T own a copy of "FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE"! And to think....anybody BORN when it came out is old enough to be a GRANDPARENT now!

whitefang Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Did too notice in my local paper recently(Detroit Free Press) they're still advertising his July 25th appearance at DTE Energy theater( formerly Pine Knob). So he might not be that bad off.....or the paper somehow didn't get the news. :idk Whitefang I started out with NOTHING...and I still have most of it left!

Larryz Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 @ Fang, He has a gig coming up October 12th (last date on the tour) in Concord CA. A buddy called and asked me if I wanted to go and see him. So, this may be his last tour..."Finale Farewell Tour 2019." Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban seems to do a similar show every NYE. Here's the 2 from 2k14 It's fulla hot licks but I draw yer attention to the swooping, yodelish thing PF plays @ 3:25 which hints at a combination of the 3 Beatle solos the end , uh, "The End" !!! [video:youtube] I think we're not up to the end of PF's career. My understanding is that he's decided to focus on recording as a way to get his compositions & production ideas down before his playing is affected. If so, he may still have a long time to work on things. d=halfnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitefang Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Yeah, Steve was considered the more "rock" and "bluesy" player, while Pete was the "jazzy" one. And sadly too, many gave more "props" to Marriott for that fantastic VOICE than his axe shredding. BTW: one of my favorite Steve vocals are on this one...
