Description
Grammy Award-winning guitarist Peter Frampton and Intervention Records are thrilled to announce the Artist-Approved Frampton@50 Limited Edition Vinyl Box Set. This AMAZING box set is numbered and LIMITED TO ONLY 2,500 COPIES. This exclusive set is available for PRE-ORDER NOW and ships July 28, 2023.
The Frampton@50 Limited Edition Vinyl Box Set is comprised of meticulously restored 180G reissues of the essential 1972-1975 studio releases that put Peter Frampton on the fast track to becoming the household name and rock legend he remains to this day, Wind of Change, Framptons Camel and Frampton. The Limited box set also comes with an authentic reproduction of the Peter Frampton promo poster that was included only in the earliest original LP copies of Framptons Camel and a Certificate of Authenticity with a message from Peter.
The Frampton@50 premium vinyl reissues sound sensational and are 100% Analog Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering from the best-sounding analog tape sources available. The flat, heroically quiet 180g vinyl is pressed at boutique press Gotta Groove Records in Cleveland, Ohio.
Intervention approached the Frampton@50 album art restoration with the same fanatical attention to detail and authenticity as the audio. The jackets for all three Frampton@50 Series LPs are Old Style Tip Ons by Stoughton Printing, with Wind of Change and Framptons Camel sporting brown-in blanks true to the UK original LP releases. Frampton original LPs came with an inner sleeve with lyrics printed on both sides, which Intervention has expanded to comprise the interior panels of a gorgeous single-LP gatefold. All three LP jackets are printed on heavy stock, and film laminated for enhanced beauty and durability.
The box is a deluxe slip case, with a matte-textured finish and spot Gloss UV highlighting the main image, and double-pass foil numbering.
