After Roger Daltrey inducted Peter Frampton into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on Saturday night in Cleveland, both legends shared their thoughts backstage on Frampton’s performance. Frampton delivered a stellar rendition of “Baby (Somethin’s Happening)” and then teamed up with Keith Urban on “Do You Feel Like I Do.” Daltrey was particularly impressed by the authentic guitar sounds, contrasting them with the “fuzz box” often heard today.
Daltrey praised the performance, highlighting the refreshing quality of Frampton’s guitar sound and the synergy he had with Urban. Roger emphasized the heartfelt nature of Frampton’s music, noting that everything Frampton does comes from the heart. Daltrey’s admiration was very evident as he humorously assured Frampton that his praise was genuine, not just flattery.
Frampton, equally pleased with the performance, admitted to feeling a mix of nerves and excitement. Known for his perfectionism, Peter was concerned about every detail but was ultimately thrilled with how the performance turned out. He shared that Urban’s advice helped him channel his energy positively.
The ceremony will air as a three-hour highlights show on ABC on New Year’s Day.
