Back To The 70's

Frampton's success went down as fast as he got it! With the release of FCA in 76, the album became one of the biggest sellers of all time in the Live Album category. Unfotunately, none of his albums released after FCA came nowhere near it.

 

Excellent guitar player. His Gibsom LP balck Beauty guitar remains one of the most recognizeable in the music world.

My memories of the 70s would not be complete without remembering the cars of that era. Yun Ford Escort GT tapos naging Escort Sport bago nag full model change to what they called the Escort Brenda (no Miriam did not own one). My lolo was going to get me a 2-door Escort de luxe (the cheapest model) but my dad said pambabae ko lang daw kaya yun Escort na wagon binili. P19k brand new! Ayos! Natitiklop pala yun back seat. Kaya lagi ako meron baon na kapok mattress para tipid sa motel!

I posted already at the Blues Thread the names of artists who played the songs in the CD I gave you last night.

If I missed a few songs, then I'll burn na lang a fresh set.

Some of the few cars I remember for sentimental reasons were the 78 Macho Machine, the 76 Lancer 2 Door, the 76 Galant 2 Door, the Toyota Sprinter, the 78 Celeste, the Escort RS 2000, the 74 Crown, the 79 Cressida, the Ford Cortina Ghia.

Yup. That's Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band film. It was a total disaster and spelled the eventual end for Peter Frampton's career. The BeeGees and Frampton all thought it was a mistake to be part of it but their contracts with Robert Stigwood was water tight on this one.

 

The only saving grace for this film [at least for many Beatle fans] was the appearance of Earth Wind and Fire in the late part of the movie --where they performed the Beatles' GOT TO GET YOU INTO MY LIFE --which was also a highlight of the soundtrack.

thanks for this, pare! I've totally forgotten that blues thread...

thanks for the wonderful time too last night. Coining a 70s term - it was a total blast! Pure 70s magic when you played those Tower of Power, Chicago, and of course that resurrected ex-future favorite Peter Frampton. Pare sige I will look up a copy of that classic live album of his hehehe...
