Peter Frampton

Frampton fascinates me less as a hitmaker than as a craftsman who found his truest voice onstage. The Herd and Humble Pie were apprenticeships; the live energy that made his solo breakthrough explode tells you everything about where he actually lives as a musician. I love that his signature isn't shredding speed but a kind of conversational, talk-box phrasing that makes the guitar sound human and warm. He could have coasted on nostalgia, yet he reads to me as a lifer who genuinely cares about tone and feel. The Walk of Fame star is earned, but his durability as a working player impresses me more.
