Peter Frampton Recalls George Harrison's Unexpected Offer -
Peter Frampton recently appeared on VRP Rocks to share how he was invited to play in late George Harrison’s ‘All Things Must Pass.’ During the interview, the guitarist recalled recording for Dorris Troy and shared his experience with meeting Harrison for the first time.
After Frampton was invited to Harrison’s studio session, Harrison asked him whether or not he would like to play guitar for Troy’s ‘Ain’t That Cute.’ After sharing that he accepted the offer, he went on to explain what happened in the studio:
“So I’m just playing very quiet rhythm because this is the Beatles lead guitar player here and there is Stephen Stills. So I think I had to just sort of be in the background here, and then halfway through, George stops, and he goes, ‘Pete, no! Man, I want you to play the lead licks.’ and so I said, ‘Oh my god, this is too good to be true.’
So anyways, if you listen to ‘Ain’t That Cute,’ which is the lead track of the album, Dorris Troy’s album, I’m playing the intro, and the lick keeps coming back every time, and then George did a little slide solo on it afterwards.”
