Unlike a great many of the entries in the
20th Century Masters series, there actually was a need for a good budget-priced
Peter Frampton collection. Sadly, the disc's producers fumbled the ball by including the inferior album version of one of
Frampton's biggest hits,
"Baby, I Love Your Way," in lieu of the much better live version from the landmark
Frampton Comes Alive! record. They did manage to include the live versions of
"Show Me the Way" and
"Do You Feel Like We Do." The disc is rounded out by
Frampton's biggest hit, the cuddly
"I'm in You" from 1977, five tracks from his '70s albums, including his pale cover of
Stevie Wonder's
"Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)," and the title track from 1981's
Breaking All the Rules. If they had included the better version of
"Baby, I Love Your Way," this disc would have been quite easy to recommend to stingy
Frampton fans, but as it is, it's merely OK.
