The live classic, which has also been newly remastered in stereo, was sourced from the original EQ’d ¼” stereo production master created in December 1975 by Doug Sax.
The album was first remastered by Gavin Lurssen in stereo then mixed in Dolby Atmos by Chuck Ainlay using the new remaster as a guide. It was important to Frampton that this definitive Dolby Atmos mix reflect the original vinyl and match the song transitions and side splits.
Frampton Comes Alive! made Frampton an overnight superstar. Released by A&M on January 6, 1976, the double album reached No.1 by the end of month and held the position for 10 weeks.
It remained on the charts for more than a year. Selling more than eight million copies the first year (and almost 18 million to date), the self-produced album spawned three hit singles: “Show Me The Way” (No.6), “Do You Feel Like We Do” (No.10), and “Baby, I Love Your Way” (No.12).
After 49 years, Frampton Comes Alive! remains one of the top-selling live records of all time selling over 17 million worldwide.
As Frampton celebrates his 60th anniversary of being a professional touring guitar player, the Grammy-winning rock legend has been nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2024 and is currently in the midst of the spring leg of his “Never EVER Say Never” tour.
When Frampton first shared the announcement, he offered up a statement that said: “I am delighted to let you know I’m planning more shows in March and April for the new ‘Never EVER Say Never’ Tour! I don’t want to give up my passion and will play as long as I physically can. Hope to see you in 2024!”
The musician announced a farewell tour four years ago following a diagnosis of the degenerative disease inclusion-body myositis, but with the aptly named “Never EVER Say Never” Tour, Frampton is back, appearing on stages across America.
