--Answer to "WHO AM I?"
Peter Frampton. Frampton was a musical prodigy who taught
himself to play the guitar at age seven. He spent his pre-
teen years performing with bands like The Little Ravens, The
Trubeats, and George & the Dragons. Frampton eventually
caught the attention of The Rolling Stones' manager, Bill
Wyman, who recruited him to join the Preachers. In 1967,
under Wyman's tutelage, Frampton became the lead guitarist
and singer for the group The Herd.
He left the group after two years and hit singles like From
the Underworld and I Don't Want Our Loving to Die. He formed
the blues-based rock band Humble Pie with Steve Marriott,
but left two years later to strike out on his own. He
launched his solo career in 1972 with the release of his
debut album Wind of Change. He toured extensively over the
next few years, promoting the albums Frampton's Camel,
Somethin's Happening and Frampton.
His 1976 live double recording Frampton Comes Alive! sold
over 10 million copies, becoming the bestselling live rock
album in history. His singles Baby I Love Your Way, Do You
Feel Like I Do? and Show Me the Way dominated the American
charts. After a near-fatal automobile accident, Frampton was
forced to temporarily shelve his music career. He recorded
sporadically throughout the 1980s, most notably Breaking All
The Rules, The Art of Control, and Premonition.
