It was an honor to pay tribute to my good friend David Bowie with the Peter Frampton Band version of “Loving The Alien”. Here’s a story about why this one is so special to me. Listen to the track now at peterframpton....
Bravo, Maestro. Great track! I've always said the Beatles were the most melodic rock/pop band and Peter Frampton was the most melodic rock/pop guitarist. In fact, I often used Humble Pie's "Rockin the Filmore" to have students compare Steve Marriot's pentatonic scales with your dorian scales, Mr. Frampton. Rock on and thanks for the beautiful music!
"Es de bien nacido ser agradecido" es un refrán español que en este caso es perfecto para describir la conducta de Peter Frampton, todo un caballero!!!
I've been a fan since the Frampton album and never a disappointment. Except for that horrible movie! Lol.. You've deffintly honored David and he'll always be a part of you and your music. One thing tho.. To me, you were never JUST the guitar player.. You've always been the front man AND the band itself. I do miss you tho... I love watching FCA2 on RU-vid. Some of your Absolute best work to me. You probably don't read these but, I hope you do. Thank you Peter!
So cool seeing Peter on these videos . I shook his hand once during a show in Austin , Texas . Saw him at Winterland in San Francisco and in San Jose , California . He feels like an old friend .
I had not heard "Loving the Alien" until the video of Peter's band was released. I then checked out the original with David Bowie. WOW! Thank you Peter.
