The self titled first album from Dire Straits has been in my rotation since it came out. A timeless work! In fact, I'm going over to the stereo to put in on right now.

Frampton Comes Alive is a great album too. Problem with Frampton is that he lost me when he did "I'm in You".

Amazon Review:

A great, classic hard rock album, December 3, 2004
Reviewer: Music Expert "tom807" (East Coast, USA) - See all my reviews

Not the best album of all time. They ruin it with their extended jams on "...Splinters" and "Rollin' Stone". But what a heavy, hard rock, blistering, British, Les Paul guitar through Marshall stack Steve Marriot rock-fest! Stoner rock? Lick rock? Classic rock? I dunno...it sure is classic though. And I've been listening it for what seems like centuries and I still throw on the disc at least once a month to remind me of how rock used to rock, if you know what I mean. You don't? Well, if you think Peter Frampton is all about teen idol BS AOR FM schlock, think again. This was a fantastic band, and one of their best albums, and one of the best albums of the 1970s. Mixed by Eddie Kramer, no less. Take that all you posers.

Frampton still under-rated
