Frampton phenomenon
I had a moment earlier when I realised that people are now young enough not to know about - or understand - the Framptom Comes Alive! phenomena. This, I thought, was one of those albums that everyone just sort of -owned. If it didn’t just magically appear in your collection, you always had bought it from the cheap bin in the local record shop. You might have inherited it from an older sibling who’d either moved on to their punk or disco phase. And there it would proudly sit, next to Leif Garrett and Sean Cassidy, and copies of KISS.
