#1010 Peter Frampton - Frampton Comes Alive!

You almost had me, Frampton. You almost convinced me that this was a modest gem unfairly dismissed by the rock smugagencia, some second cousin of Countdown to Ecstasy, some estranged nephew of Fragile, with enough "hey, that actually kind of rocks" moments to crack my assumptions. But then you sucked. And then you sucked again. From Winds of Change to Baby to I Love Your Way, and most of what comes between, this is a mopey, reedy, waterey slurry of songs 2.5/5
