study in what happens when dogged determination is paired with
immense talent."
--American Songwriter

storytelling, and his vivid, conversational style lends this memoir
the intimacy of a coffee shop chat -- just you, Peter Frampton, and
the pressing question: 'Do you feel like I do?'"--Nashville
Scene
"It's a fascinating read that takes you at a steady clip from
Frampton's childhood memories through his days as a teen prodigy to

--Vintage Guitar
"[A] charming memoir. Frampton's story is a low-key epic without
any self-aggrandizing....There's a gracefulness and kindness to
Frampton's story, although it has its dark chapters. It's a rock
solid memoir that, from beginning to end, is a lively journey. Few

fascinating as the career highs, but from the beginning, Frampton
lived a grand life."--Grit Daily

genuine."--Zoomer

cherished 'Phenix', Frampton's life story is about resurrection,
overcoming adversity, beating the odds, and finding balance in his
life. Show us the way, Peter!"--Holy City Sinner
"A rollickingly fun read....Frampton unflinchingly takes the reader
behind the scenes, strips away the veneer of stardom, and is able
to give insight into what it's been like to be this kid from South
London who became a rock giant. There's loads of humor, as well as
naivete...you're left with the feeling Frampton cannot believe the
bonkers journey life has taken him on. An articulate autobiography
from someone obviously in love with music."--Classic Rock
Review

written book and shift through the multiple collaborations and
friendships Peter Frampton developed over the years....There is a
conversational air to how Frampton writes, making you feel as
though he's telling these stories, from childhood to coronavirus,
to you and only you....Little seemed to be off the table....Peter
Frampton comes across as your next door neighbor who you chat with
over tea after you've found yourself locked out of your house
during a snowstorm: inviting, transparent, and easygoing. And, of
course, a musician through and through."--The Aquarian
