Peter Frampton‘s next studio album, which he hopes to have out before the end of the year,will present acoustic renditions of some of his favorite songs from past releases.
“It’s much more interesting than I thought it was going to be,” Frampton tells Billboard. “I thought, ‘Well, I’ll just go into the studio and I’ll whip off 10 or 11 of my songs just the way I wrote them.’ So I sat down and I started singing them; when I started first listening to them they all sounded like they were on stage, without the band. It’s just the way I’ve been doing these songs for 40 years, some of them.”
