Art Of Control

Description

This album is incredibly catchy, it vibrates louder than most of Frampton's records, and the production by him and the legendary Eddie Kramer (Jimi Hendrix, Stones, Zeppelin) is vast and quite polished. "Read The News," "Sleepwalk," "Save Me," "An Eye For An Eye," and "Don't Think About Me" are essentially the heart of the album with a simple and straightforward rock 'n roll sound — featuring doubled solo guitars and choruses filled with abundant hooks. "Back To Eden," "Heart Of Fire," and "Here Comes Caroline" all take a more progressive drumming approach as well as a Police-like solo guitar line for a smoother and rockier rhythm section. This may be one of Frampton's best albums, aside from "Frampton Comes Alive."
