Quick Thoughts: A staple of classic-rock radio. Peter Frampton is one of those musical prodigies that taught himself to play guitar and piano at the age of seven and was learning classical music by time he was eight. Here's a guy who paid his dues during his childhood and teenage years for more than a decade before hitting super stardom in the mid 1970's with the best selling live album Frampton Comes Alive of all time (up until that time). Due to it's wild success, his subsequent efforts were overshadowed by his live album and his career gradually seemed to drift away before making a comeback in the mid 1980's. He's been touring ever since. Relative to other rock legends, Peter Frampton is under-rated.

Having grown up listening to mostly hip-hop, R&B, some alternative,
and all sorts of music in Spanish, I decided it was time to give myself a
personal survey of Rock music. My friend BJ Swanner compiled a "Top
1000 Rock Song List", aggregated from several "Top Lists". As I go
through all 1,000 songs, I'll be creating my own list, sharing a
brief post like this for all the songs that will make my
final list. I will not be ranking the songs that make it to my final
list.....for now.
