5.0 out of 5 stars Do you feel like we do?, November 10, 2004

I guess that would be a "yes", because after all, you're here checking out Frampton.

With his vast catalog, this is the most complete collection available. The popular 'Greatest Hits' album simply lacks the offering made by 'Shine On'.

Such as the cut 'Lying' (from 'Premonition'), with its excellent hard edged guitar playing.

Or 'More Ways Than One' (from 'When All the Pieces Fit'), which still sounds fresh with its modern guitar tone.

As well, the 'Theme From Nivram' is here (from 'The Art Of Control Sessions'), as a tribute to Frampton's main inspiration - Hank Marvin.

As a fantastic bonus, 'The Bigger They Come' and 'I Won't Let You Down', has Peter joining forces for a final time with the late great Humble Pie frontman, Steve Marriot.

And of course all the great live stuff is here, 'Show Me the Way', 'Shine On', and 'Do You Feel Like We Do'; along with all the studio classics that Frampton fans know so well.

Are there omissions here? Probably. But the hard core Frampton fan will own his catalog in its entirity. This collection simply offers one an economic incentive to gain an excellent overview.

For Peter Frampton is a premier songwriter and musician, who's guitar playing is on a parrallel with any of the greatest. This album encapsulates his greatness in the most compact package available. Which makes it an excellent value deserving of my highest rating.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is one of the better collections out, August 14, 2000

Blast O'Malley "Redneck Extroidinare" (Dallas, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Shine on - A Collection (Audio CD)

I was given the previous one, The Very Best, and it wasn,t. There are a lot of songs that Peter does a great job on that the radio didn't pick-up on. He has always had some gems tucked in amongst the the grooves. This has more songs and a better cross section of material. Of course, when the individual albums (cd)get released, that will be an answer to everybody's prayers. This would be in my top-10 got to have.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Retrospect, March 10, 2000

This review is from: Shine on - A Collection (Audio CD)

In a career with as many ups and downs as Peter Frampton - it's hard to pick everybody's favorite to include on one album. In this case, the archivists did a very good job pulling tunes from a career that has spawned almost four decades.

My only reservation for not giving the album five stars was its exclustion of any "The Art of Control" songs. The B Side to "Sleepwalk," "Nivarm's Song" is included, but why the rest of the album didn't make its way on is a mystery.

Since most of Frampton's work is not on CD - this is a good alternative to add to your collection.
