Frampton

Question:

"LEGENDARY ARTIST’S FIRST INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM FEATURES MEMBERS OF PEARL JAM, THE ROLLING STONES, AND THE SHADOWS, AS WELL AS WARREN HAYNES AND OTHERS. [snip] To help bring his childhood musical dream to life, Frampton invited Rolling Stones Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman to play on "Cornerstones"; original Shadows members Hank Marvin and Brian Bennett to perform with him on "My Cup of Tea"; and Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready and Matt Cameron join him for a cover of Soundgarden’s "Black Hole Sun" and the original "Blowin’ Smoke." Fingerprints also reveals Frampton’s penchant for American roots music, especially on "Blooze," featuring Warren Haynes on slide guitar, and "Double Nickels" featuring Nashville virtuoso Paul Franklin on pedal steel. Frampton trades licks with British saxophone legend Courtney Pine on the blues rocker "Boot It Up." He and guitarist/co-producer Gordon Kennedy play harmonizing electric guitars on "Float," another album highlight. Another guitar virtuoso, John Jorgenson, joins Frampton on the Django Reinhardt-style "Souvenirs De Nos Phres." [snip] This comes from Amazon’s blurb on Frampton’s new album, Fingerprints, apparently he’s been been busy making good music for some time, although I don’t suppose he’ll ever shake off that pretty-boy pop-star image he was saddled with after leaving Humble Pie.  The clips I’ve heard sound like Jeff Beck meets solo Leslie West, not such a bad thing.  Nice to see an old cat can still outshine all these young pups with the tattoos on their faces and their lips chained to their ears.  ;^)
