Live in Detroit

sizzling show full of great songs and brilliant guitar work!
i LOVE this video... have the BR as well as the normal DVD (my office isn't BR so this is one of a few items I have duplicated formats on!). Unlike the new FCA 35 set and tour this features Peter's long time right hand man Bob Mayo on keys/gtr and John Regan on Bass.... as well as the brilliant Chad Cromwell on drums. I like this band better than his newer one and boy were they smokin' on this night. Peter's guitar playing is often overshadowed by his one time status as the Justin Beiber/flavor of the month and that is a shame because he is a killer player and this set is a testament to that. Brandishing a couple of very tasty Les Paul guitars his tone and touch and taste are on full display and the camera work is great , the audience was into it and I've watched this a half dozen times in the last week!

the bonus interview of a half an hour is worth watching and the bonus clip from FCA 35 is also a nice bonus... altogether a terrific value!! HIGHLY recommended

must have for any Frampton fan
This is a good quality dvd and has a great mixture of songs, I find it very entertaining each time I watch it, Frampton is always the Showman.

Sure, there were a lot of 40- and 50-somethings out there in the audience, so the energy wasn't as high as when they saw Frampton in their teens and twenties, but they did well for a bunch of old folks. Yes, I fit the demographic.

For all of you guitar players out there the producers have made the wise decision to show lots of closeups of Frampton's hands as he plays. Like his music or not, his technique is effortless and productive and interesting to watch.

Frampton's playing hasn't fallen off over the years and they put on a good show in Detroit that year. If you liked Frampton when you were younger you will like this concert. If you are a young whippersnapper looking for some good guitar work and a demonstration of how a group of...
