PETER FRAMPTON “WIND OF CHANGE” EX HUMBLE PIE 1972

PETER FRAMPTON “WIND OF CHANGE” (U.S.A &MSP 4348) 1972 PRETTY GOOD FRAMPTON LP AND IN NICE CONDITION. THE COVER IS STRONG VG++ W JUST LITE WEAR. DISC IS M-
Only brought down a notch by a failed cover of “Jumping Jack Flash”, which had been beaten to death by many others at this point. The rest of the material(original Frampers btw) all hits the mark. Top nods go to the title track, “All I Want to Be” and “The Lodger”.
High marks for nice production by Pete and sweet playing by hired help like Mike Kellie, drums(Spooky Tooth), Andy Bown, bass etc (Pete’s mate from The Herd) and even Ringo and Billy Preston. Framper’s guitar work and his lead playing continues on the track he left with Humble Pie. His phrasing was unique and very lyrical at this point in his career. The songs here wound up being the best collection of tunes he would contribute to a single LP. It was a great start to a solo career that would hit massive commercial heights in a few years, but he would never make another album as good as this one.
