Peter Frampton "Blackhole Sun" on Guitar Center Sessions on DIRECTV

[@MisterMoray]

The thing I like most about Peter Frampton... Look at how much goddamn fun he's having!

[@its_grapejuice4135]

MisterMoray this comment is old but YES I agree. I love him and Eddie Van Halen for the same reason. Saw Frampton in concert last week

[@mooniejohnson]

I've seen Frampton probably 5 times in concert... he's a guy who feeds off the crowd's energy and gives it right back. He just loves what he's doing, period.

[@100ksubswithterribleconten7]

MisterMoray Dan Wojciechowski does not seem to be having fun at all 😂😂

[@Notagainthismofo]

I know exactly what are you saying PF in the 70s-80s was bored AF...

[@jeffreyhinman1397]

Lol that’d be the drugs

[@emmettjarreau720]

Peter Frampton is in BEAST MODE on this song. You can feel the emotion, it sounds like a tribute to Chris but this was recorded years before.

[@goryburk]

Funny that you mention that. I'm sure that Chris Cornell appreciated the tribute. If you ever heard limo wreck. Chris could peer into the future.

[@kencoleman5007]

I just saw him I'm concert tonight ("the Never Say Never Tour"). Even with debilitating health issues, Frampton brings it. "Black Hole Sun" and his cover of "Georgia" were two of my favorite parts.

[@kencoleman5007]

@@randyj1988 That's amazing dedication.

[@keithmarshall4707]

I never get tired of watching this. Beast mode is right. The sound is so rich and the technical quality is off the charts. Why he isn’t in the Rolling Stones 100 Best list is criminal!

[@lw1391]

​@@keithmarshall4707a lot of quality players were left off that list, Frampton is definitely one of them. Which is a shame, because inclusion might have gotten some younger people to check him out and learn exactly how legit he is.

[@Xurreal]

R.I.P. Chris Cornell. 1964 - 2017 "Steal the warm wind, tired friend." :'(

[@volvo1354]

Evelynn WoW made my day friend

[@jadenmckeith7940]

Evelynn no one sings like him anymore

[@iys6890]

Gone way too soon 😥

[@jeffreypotter4125]

God forgive me, I talked shit on Frampton a while back because of his age. I take it back. With this cover, he redefines "Black Hole Sun" and honors Chris Cornell (who did a few covers himself). Masterful.

[@lw1391]

I love how this version of Black Hole Sun has such a cool inversion: guitar as lead, with a vocal 'solo' mid way through. Peter Frampton is an original, and he's definitely still got it.

[@DiedrichKnickerbocker1783]

Hated the first minute of it and then I got it. Frampton, you magnificent bastard. Really like this version.

[@danbee998]

First minute was unpleasant; agreed. The talk box was fantastic; wonderful cover. Great innovation to this classic.

[@probablepossible4323]

It took him a minute to get it worked out, yeah :)

[@SunDaTian]

Great call it's getting good now

[@saltybildo9448]

Yep

[@335fusion]

That intro transported me instantly

[@87roaches]

Pretty sure his voice box put him in the zone. That shred after the vox is stellar.

[@emonet7672]

Roy Roach I totally agree with you, and he actually missed a couple notes! You can see it on his face but it didn’t matter because it was still great. That’s what happens when you’re a level 10,000 guitar wizard

[@boggieberto]

Intense as fuck

[@pkdiddy]

Best use of the talkbox EVER!

[@justnuisanceUK]

He's one under-rated master of the guitar.

[@EricssonB]

Yes, as many have said "meh" about Frampton.

[@ImHeadshotSniper]

@@EricssonB yeah true. he's a known god but i would agree even at that status he is underrated. the fluidity of his playing leads me to believe he invented music itself

[@ryanfrye6354]

Tribute to chris.

[@rafiktoni4325]

No no peter is not underated he is among the best ever he's only did not specialized on blues seems blues is the edge of guitarists

[@jadedstar3673]

Who says so

[@jungbaeerie7964]

I saw him performing it live right before the main concert (Steve Miller Band). Totally unexpected performance and shattered my expectations.

[@Weloz92]

Damn, that "and wash away the rain" at 4:15 always manages to send chills down my spine, so badass!

[@saint_of_saints]

You know your band is doing sonething right when legends from various eras before you cover your songs. Hail Soundgarden

[@jeffreynelson5306]

Albert M. ............or Cash covering Rusty Cage

[@applexxtaylor5118]

someone had to have missed the like button ,because Peter Frampton is a GUITAR GOD!!!

[@JasonCleghorn1975]

You get the sense that if he'd never made a dollar in music he'd be just as happy. And that's in short supply. And I admire him greatly for it.

[@ajarproject4021]

omg that talk box work at the end was brilliant

[@GibsonGuy0707]

When Peter Frampton covers your song, you know you did something right.

[@cavejohnson8665]

Gotta say, I think Blackhole Sun has ascended to the realm of the standard: A song that is such a masterpiece that multiple artists in multiple genres of music can play and both do it proper justice and make it their own. At once both instantly recognizable and infinitely variable. I honestly think it's up there with Stardust Memories.

[@henrythomas8273]

Frampton is just a beast! You got to love him!

[@guitarcenter]

You know what's cool? Peter Frampton covering Soundgarden's "Blackhole Sun" on #GCSessions back in 2011. That was cool.

[@Allan62T]

I saw him in Dallas in "06". Top shelf!... He played "While my guitar gently weeps" That would make Harrison cry...

[@RealDiaz]

Frampton has a way with the guitar sets him apart from all of his contemporaries, so lyrical. Being a singer songwriter helps your soloing big time. If you don't believe me just ask Eric Clapton, David Gilmour or Rick Medlocke, hehe.

[@guitarist2752]

Superbe!

[@Jay_M_See]

You go Pete, loved it!

[@hatebreed516]

hehe hehe butthead, it rules, it rules!! yeah, this was cool beavis, hehe hehe

[@cozyslor]

I've watched many of the Cornell tributes. This is the only one that feels like a celebration. And I agree, Frampton has always been an underrated guitar player.

[@joshuawright8990]

cozyslor this performance was 6 years before Chris Cornell died.

[@keithmarshall4707]

This is easily one of the richest sounding recordings ever and the technical quality is off the charts. Why he is not in Rolling Stones 100 Best is criminal! We love you Peter!

[@MrJIMMYDANUB]

Just saw him play this live. Still sounds spot on to this video even with his health issues. Such a legend

[@inspirationalguitar5316]

That SMILE, that TALK BOX, that PASSION ........ they stay the same ! OLD MASTER never die !!

[@jefflitchfield4950]

No talk box though. Still awesome

[@gregallen8664]

There are no words. Peter Frampton is the best!

[@rafaelvalentini1555]

Frampton knows Chris’ voice is unique, then his performance focused on what he is amazing: his guitar. As someone said on this comment section, Frampton performed it on beast mode. Terrific. Period.

Forever the best cover of Black Hole Sun!!! Every time I hear it I just go into a trance.

[@Kasino80]

But for the tears...Norah Jones.

[@jacob3709]

One of the best!!! Have to come back every year!!

[@dolphe.chiarino6142]

Frampton is one of the most under rated musicians alive today. The man is humble (Humble Pie - no pun intended), gracious, talented, smart & a really good friend. Rock on Peter.....

[@promodummy]

saw them a year ago and was totally blindsided by this, nearly shat myself. so good.

[@jeffreyhinman1397]

Making her sing, effortlessly and makes you feel it in your soul.

[@notaurusexcretus4471]

Well done you can tell Peter loves the song as much as we do

[@MarianoMartinez-ju1qh]

This is why Peter Frampton it´s much more that most people think he is. So underrated, like Robin Trower or Rory Gallagher

[@jamesedwards2237]

The only one I've seen live is Robin Trower. Fantastic artists all!

[@craignewnes5148]

Agreed! Robin Trower is my #3. Way underrated. #1 Jeff Beck, #2 J Hendrix, #3 Trower, #4 Jimmy Page, #5 Duane Allman

[@Kaktuskastl]

my doctor says i should avoid every excitement because of my weak health. in comes peter frampton blowing my mind out of the skull and learns my heart to beat in bars of 23/11th. thank you so much, dear sir...

[@tallsmile28]

No one sings like you anymore! RIP Chris Cornell

[@stephenjones6030]

Phenomenal. I saw this cat about 15 years ago at the Hollywood Bowl. John Waite opened, then came Frampton, then Journey. It was a great show. However, I saw Pete within this last year at the Forum (Los Angeles) and it fricking blew my mind. I had NO idea this cat was such a great guitarist. His entire band completely rocked. And I've been listening to him since the 70's.

[@dbiedny]

That is the best tribute to anyone I've ever seen. Stunning.

[@998cooper]

One of the most proficient & underrated guitarists. Have most of his stuff on vinyl (luckily)

[@tonychang5801]

Blown away by this rendition. Really incredible Frampton

[@rockmysoul7987]

without a doubt one of The Best Guitarist!

[@TheSpoonwood]

So smart .. PF is a rock guitar god...

[@jayhache5609]

The best version.

[@laserbeam002]

I've always admired Peter Frampton's guitar work. He really is one of the finest guitarist alive today.

[@lairofhorrors1756]

Frampton always looks like he is having the time of his life! Very inspirational!

[@DiGiTaLdAzEDM]

It's obvious that Frampton is still very passionate about his music--great performance!!

[@mattdickey2717]

Audio quality is off the chain. Fantastic band, great cover.

[@ZoSoxSwAnSoNgx]

You just sit and wait the whole song for him to sing the chorus with the talk-box, and BAM, he finally does and it hits you like a punch to the face... and you say "thank you, Peter, for punching me. Thank you so very much."

[@michaeljordan6008]

Thanks for doing this Peter Frampton, beautiful!

[@MrMrdlegend]

Wow that was amazing. RIP Chris. Kinda of a nice tribute at this time

[@a.s.4914]

marc davidoff I've never seen this, I think they did a terrific job, will definitely miss Chris Cornell.

[@steveanacorteswa3979]

Worked in Hollywood when Frampton comes alive was released, never got to see Chris, but this was an awesome tribute

[@neybianchigarcia]

Frampton rocks since the 70s. Amazing job.

[@Le_Mer]

WHAT ? How the hell is he making those sounds ? Why haven't I seen this man before ? So many questions. I am blown away

It is great to see Peter Frampton honor the great Chris Cornell with this great performance! Peter I remember Humble Pie and the Boston Tea Party 1969!

[@williamhurrelbrink3324]

I found this because of the comment section of the charismatic voice channel and I am very happy about it!

[@vineflower]

He is a master of the instrument really! So underrated!

[@aliensporebomb]

Wow what a wild version! And the talkbox vox seems to fit right on!

This is spell-binding! Artists will forever continue to do covers, but never have I seen or heard anyone own up to the task like Frampton does here. I don't know if I'll ever enjoy the original version again, the way I did before I heard this. Peter Frampton is Rock Royalty!

So true I actually got to see him in missouri playing at the Quapaw casino and that was 1 of the best covers I heard summer 2013

[@dolphe.chiarino6142]

Peter is one of the best musicians around. He's very humble & polite. Never met a nicer person. I saw him when Humble Pie started outs at the Fillmore East in the early 70's and followed his career in to Frampton's Camel and on his own. Even attended the Frampton Comes Alive shows. I'm a big fan of Soungarden also so when I saw this video, I thought it was brilliant. Keep on rockin', Peter.

[@shawnpa]

Nice story. This may be one of his best guitar performances. This cover works.

[@alerey4363]

It really doesnt matter, we are judging musical quality, not person quality; in fact the music motto "never meet your music idol" is quite true; a LOT of musicians are crappy persons, but when it comes to their music they rock

[@Streiste]

I absolutely love watching Frampton play. He loves it. You can see it just watching him, he's having the time of his life whenever he picks up a guitar.
