Rating: Summary: Peter Frampton - Live in Detroit DVD Review: ADD THIS DVD TO YOUR LIBRARY TODAY ! Peter Frampton has sold enough albums that everyone on the planet has heard his music. Watching this concert it feels as if he is singing just to you. "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin is certainly considered/played songs of the last 30 years. "Lines on My Face" is all over it with soft arpeggios and searing guitar riffs. Some say Clapton is the guitar god, and he is truly incredibly....but move over, Peter Frampton rocks !
Rating: Summary: Great DVD, but where's the Center Channel?? Review: Am I the only one who has noticed that there's virtually no sound coming out of the center channel on this DVD? The dts sound quality is fine (though lacking some definition in the high frequencies, in my opinion), BUT -- where's the sound from the center channel? I compared this DVD with several others (Eagles "Hell Freezes Over", etc) to make sure the problem wasn't with my stereo. It wasn't. Don Henley's voice sounded loud and clear on my center speaker, but Peter Frampton's voice (or any other sound, for that matter) from this DVD are nowhere to be found on the center speaker. I agree that the picture quality is superb, and Peter's musicianship is terrific, but the lack of center channel sound REALLY bothers me. Has anyone else noticed this, or am I going crazy here??
Rating: Summary: EXCELLENT SOUND QUALITY AND FOOTAGE Review: AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR ANY PETER FRAMPTON FAN! IT'S FANTASTIC.
Rating: Summary: Bob Mayo----That Man---Bob Mayo Review: An extraordinary performance from a band. This concert cooks and I sat back in awe at the Keys\Gat performance of the player from Frampton comes alive.Frampton himself puts in a wonderful performance on Gat and Vox but it 's that Bob Mayo that really polishes off this fabulous display.SMOKING!!
Rating: Summary: I got totally blown away ! Review: As a long time Peter Frampton fan, I waited for this day,when this DVD fell on my doormat. I ran upstairs to check out this DVD on my brand new Yamaha DSP-AX1 Amplifier......I was very curious how this concert would sound in DTS format.... I could not believe my ears ! I have a lot of DTS concerts like "Hell freezes over" from The Eagles, and Tina Turner "Live in Amsterdam", but this really sets the standard ! I know that Peter Frampton is a sound freak, and loves gatgets, so I wasn't surprised that this DVD would sound extraordinary. Apart from that, he still rocks like never before. The boys are jamming away as if their lives depend on it. Boy oh boy, did I enjoy this DVD. I'm so glad that I can watch this DVD over and over again, without losing quality, and I will tell you one thing, I'm going to watch this over, and over and over.

This is not glamor rock its true rock at its finest.Thank you Peter for the great music and for giving us such an AWESOME video. GOD BLESS
Rating: Summary: frampton only gets better with age Review: bought this dvd the first day out and it rocks. The video tranfer is crystal clear and the 5.1 encoding sounds great on by bose acoustamas 15.... Peter looks at peace with himself and the other members of the band and I've always said he is one of rocks greatest guitar players and he proves it here.
Rating: Summary: ROCK YOUR HOUSE DOWN!!!!!! Review: BOUGHT THIS DVD WITHOUT EVEN OWNING A PLAYER. I TAKE IT EVERY WHERE THERE MAY BE A CROWD AND THE RESPONSE IS THE SAME. "WHO IS THIS GUY AND WHERE CAN I GET THIS CONCERT?" PETER FRAMPTON WAS MY VERY FIRST CONCERT AS A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD. SAW HIM AGAIN LIVE ON HIS "BREAK'N ALL OF THE RULES" TOUR IN THE EARLY NINTIES. THIS MASTERPIECE BROUGHT EVERYTHING FRAMPTON IS ABOUT RIGHT INTO MY LIVING ROOM AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS. I HAVE NEVER THOUGHT THAT THIS SINGLE PERFORMANCE WOULD BRING SO MANY PEOPLE TOGETHER AS KIDS IN THEIR EARLY TEENS AND ADULTS IN THEIR FIFTIES HIGH FIVED TO FRAMPTON AND HIS STYLE OF MUSIC AND HIS GUITAR HERO STATUS. THE GREATEST QUOTE I'VE HEARD IN A LONG TIME WAS FROM SOMEONE IN THEIR EARLY TWENTIES PROCLAIM, "IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL FOR GUYS THAT OLD TO ROCK THAT HARD!!!!"IF YOU LIKE PETER FRAMPTON, BUY THIS DVD AND SHARE IT WITH FRIENDS AND STRANGERS ALIKE! HISTORY IS REPEATING IT SELF. " FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE AGAIN!!!"

Rating: Summary: Hate to go against the grain Review: First of all, I will admit that I am not a particular Peter Frampton fan so my opinion my be biased.I would have to say that it does sound very similar to a lot of live concerts that I have been to, I had difilculty understanding what the artist was singing. It occurred to me when I heard Peter speaking that there was significant reverberation going on. I then noticed two microphones attached to the mic boom which confirmed to me that reverbeeration was intended to, I assume, mask a lacking singing voice. Granted, he is an exceptional guitarist and the insturmental portions of the disc are excellent. Speaking of excellent, I would agree that the video portion was also top notch with the exception of some over exposure here and there. In my opinion if you are seeking a music concert disc that rates 5 stars in both image and sound you should purchase James Taylor, Live at the Beacon Theater or Eagles When Hell Freezes Over. Tina Turner - Live in Amsterdam is another excellent choice but not quite to the level of the other two.
