In the throwback video below from AXS TV, Peter Frampton tells journalist Dan Rather about his childhood friendship with David Bowie, and how Bowie helped his career during a dark period in his life.
Peter Frampton’s next live performance is scheduled for tonight, April 1, at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. Find his complete tour itinerary here.
Frampton is among the artists interviewed in the 90-minute documentary, The Session Man: Nicky Hopkins, which tells the story of the legendary pianist Nicky Hopkins, dubbed rock and roll’s greatest session man, who played on over 250 albums and on some of the most iconic rock tracks ever recorded.
Amongst his stand-out achievements, Nicky contributed to records by The Rolling Stones (14 albums), The Kinks, The Who and The Beatles, but he also appears on solo albums of all four Beatles, most notably, John Lennon’s Imagine.
The list of interviewees in the documentary is impressive and includes, in addition to Frampton, Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, Bill Wyman, Dave Davies and Pete Townshend, each giving their unique take on what it was that made Nicky so special and the magic he brought to every track he appeared on.
The Session Man was originally released in the US on November 5, 2024 on Amazon (TVoD), and by popular demand, it is now released on DVD, also on Amazon.
