On In the Studio with Redbeard, Frampton said, “The album is mostly live except for the first verse of ‘Something’s Happening’, the electric rhythm guitar on ‘Show Me the Way’ (the talk-box came out but the engineer forgot to move the mic) and the intro piano on ‘I Wanna Go to the Sun’ were fixed in the studio but the rest was all live (all the guitar solos, acoustic guitars, electric keyboards, drums, bass guitar and rest of vocals)”.
Either Frampton’s a liar or you are.
Frampton told some local radio station in 76 that it was studio album. This was the GREATEST CONTROVERSY in my Army Platoon and Company. We argued about this darn thing for several years. Sometimes when something is too perfect it is. They stitched together the recordings. That isn’t live, it’s contrived.
