I saw Bowie in ‘83 and ‘87, and Frampton was with him on one of them, pretty sure it was ‘87. Not only were they childhood friends, Frampton’s father was one of Bowie’s teachers at some point.
I always thought Frampton Comes Alive was overrated, and I was pretty tired of it by around July, 76. Of course, something like five billion people disagreed with me.
Yeah, it was on the radio constantly.
It was a turning point in music, because it was the first time you saw girls fall for a hard rock act.
