I`m from Phila,, PA and I saw Tesla at the TLA south street, and the acoustic show at the hard rock cafe, and the croc rocks in allentown, we got the 2nd disc at the show , you didnt get a chance to play DO YOU that night but i went home and listened to your version til the sun came up, IT WAS PHENOMINAL ! i play too so, i loved it

Cheers !

  • This was great!!!

  • DAM!! Move over Peter. This guy rocks your own song better then you, lol. Just messin, but, DAM!! One of the best covers I've heard, tearin that axe up.

  • awesome....

  • Amen Tmar!!

  • I love you F H

  • awesome!

  • Great cover job

  • DAMN GOOD!

  • holy crap did frampton get fat...still got his hair tho :)

  • Awesome job! I´m just 14 and I love Peter Frampton´s music, and i think you managed to make a perfect cover of this great song...

  • one of the very first time using a mouth tube, modularing guitar sound, GREAT, Peter Framtton!!

  • holy shit , I might jump in front of a car for you

  • This song is sooo goood

  • HOLY SHIT !!!!! I'm like 13 again !!!! UNBELIEVABLE RENDITION !!!!

  • You guys did justice to this song. Good version and thanks for not pussy-fying the song.

  • very very nice cover. Sounds like a good nite there~

  • My old band used to do this, and I was " Bob MaYO" on keys , plus the singer ! Lol

  • Only thing missing is, "Bob Mayo on the keyboards, Bob Mayo ...."

    Right?

  • These guys are incredible! I wish they could arrive in my cul de sac some Saturday morning and just, you know, play some Frampton or some Lou Reed for a short while and after everyone gets window estimates they leave.Ha Ha! All of my neighbors would look like Kramer when they left!!

  • One of the best covers of any song that I have EVER seen!!!! Great!!!

  • Fuc....great!!!

  • Very good! Coming from an old fart like me, that's a compliment!

  • At :41 and 2:07 the guitar player motions the drummer to slow the tempo by his sudden look to the drummer and then dipping down. I may be wrong but I've played so long and I have had stuff like that happen to me by human metronome guitar players.

  • very good this ;-)

  • dude for a cover thats fucking unreal

  • This is a great cover. Well done guys...

  • SPOT FUCKING ON...........

  • Great job man, the way to make a good impression is to win the crowd by getting them involved which he did. Vocals were OK but great Job man.

  • Shit ya very good

  • Not too keen on the drummer but the front guy fucking knows Framptons chops. Just to be fair to the drummer....his kit picked up really shitty on the vid so maybe that caused me to turn off.

  • Dude the drummer Robbie only has one leg and doesnt use any electronic kit stuff. Hes a bad mutha#$@!er no matter one leg or two!

  • Still doesn't change the fact that I'm not too keen on him. Should I say, wow he's fucking awesome now that I know he has one leg? I will give him more credit for playing with one leg but because he's disabled I will not be fake and say anything different. He is a good drummer, I just don't like his style. Fair enough?

  • bad f-in ass

  • simply..... awesome

  • frank is one of the most underrated rock gods of all time. no shit.

  • @Tmar1970

    whoops i accedently thumbed down. stupid youtube

  • Sexiest and best cover man, but not as quick fingered as the legend himself .. ..still awesome!!!!!!!!

  • 6 Stars if I could!

  • i like hip hop and rap ,but this song drives me crasy the freestyle guitar,it take me to a zone...like if i was high or back in the day...relaxing..nice cover..11 stars

  • You guys R-r-o-c-c-kk !!! in spades. Best cover i've ever seen of this most famous rock anthem!! Great tribute to Peter Frampton. He'd be most proud! Keep on doin' it - knobby,

  • This is Frank Hannon and Dave rude of TESLA. I believe this was filmed in Sacramento. Dave Rude was auditioning for Tesla. He got the job.

  • Don't know anything about this band. I know Frampton. This is good!

  • What I wouldn't give to be there right now....

  • you know this dude got sooooo laid after this performance...auto tune drops them panties like no other...

  • where do you hear him using auto tune?

  • @RutgersJRS I got the two mixed up he uses a squawk box or talk box...not auto tune.

  • @jlbs133

    Yeah, considering there weren't really DAWs back in the 70s >.>

  • Awesome!

  • Great cover guys! 5 stars and more!!!

  • Covers are typically lame but this guy nailed it! I hate to say this but he does it better than Frampton.

  • Badass!!!

  • Excellent! Frank is a well seasoned guitarist.

  • lets see em do eruption

  • you guys rock

  • is that dave rude i see playing guitar in the background?

  • yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! sick X[)

  • awesome cover!!!!!

  • Sorry your girlfriend fooled around on you while u were on the road. I would have a been a good girlfriend and beautiful too. Hope u r in love now. Me and my hubby are heading out to the park with this tune.

  • Yes! I have felt like you do on the lake up north with my best friend wild in the breeze and high as the mountains. hope u find ur true love. thanks for explaining my teen life. lol

  • What an awesome job they did on this song !!

    I`ve never heard off anybody doing as great a job as these guys did on this song!

  • 30 ans après, mamie a les mêmes frissons sur ce solo (culte pour moi !)

  • super

  • this guy is fucking smoking on that les paul

  • yoo man, you got amazing Controll of that talk Box, i be reppin it Just like you dude !!!

    Solid!

  • Solid yo

  • i agree with borntorun

  • These guys are talented - I am sure!!

  • These guys are good!!! Im digging the talk box!!

  • This is my all-time favorite song and guitar solo, and I must say after hearing the original LIVE since 1977, and recorded even before that in 1975, and over 10,000 times since, this is absolutely THE BEST cover rendition of this song I have ever seen or heard. Excellent, excellent work guys. I totally agree with the previous poster that the drummer did a fantastic job, and Frank Frampton Hannon guitar/lead/singer was THE BEST EVER!

    Keep up the great work!

  • I have to say, being a huge Frampton fan, this version is the best I have ever head for a cover. Frank Hannon is a good guitarist, and you can tell they are doing it out of respect for the song, and not just doing a drunken cover just to shut up the wasted chick in the Bar who keeps calling out for a certain song it like some bands do. Really good energy in the performance too! You can tell the drummer is really capturing the spirit of John Siomos' playing from the live record. Great job guys.

  • Not better than Frampton, But they have done an exceptional job covering of it, The Lead Singer is Brilliant!

  • frampton is the best! tesla sucks

  • One hell of a job guys. I've seen Frampton live and on other shows and he can' t reproduce his own song as good as you guys are doing. Keep on rockin'. Just wondering how your talk box is hooked up. Any distortion added or are you going out from the talk box.

    Thanks

    Pierre

  • I miss the 80's!!! Sniff! Sniff!

    Where's my bic lighter? This flame's for you Dude!!!

  • you dont flame a song like this...seriously??..go flame extreme more than words

  • dude dont be a fag... this is not a flame song... its to good for that. this is more of a go down in history type of song... when its done by peter frampton

  • simula che canta lui, ma è la chitarra che canta, bravo

  • good, but better?? bite your tongue! :p

  • Hmmm,better than Frampton methinks

  • Bit tasty

  • my first thought where "oh shit, a coverband", but then i listened the whole vid.........THEY ARE GREAT !!!!!!

  • Fantástico !!!

    I love it ! very good. Congratulations of a fan in Brasil !!

  • Bravo, Peter........ Que grato volver escuchar este poderoso tema acompañado de tus excelentes cualidades como guitarrista. Bravo¡¡¡. Great¡¡

  • Good Job!

  • Those Les Paul guitars sound superb !!

    Great sound from them like no other.

  • we have aerosmith and zztop here in July.....need Peter here too...seriously

  • Great job guys. You do Peter proud!

  • Love this song.. Very good cover. I live in Cincinnati where Peter now lives. I saw him at a free outdoor event about 7 years ago. He started playing this song and my dumdass ex-girlfriend, and I emphasize EX, had to go pee. I missed it..!! Live and learn.

  • Hell, I stayed and watched the whole thing......not bad!!

  • Nice job!

  • yes, eyes closed..... i'm back there again

  • they are in right key just tunned down a half step...sounds good

  • great cover guys and a fantastic tone on that lead guitar !

  • Nice work guys! Nevermind the negative comments, you nailed it.

  • Allow me to tell you something. I've seen Frampton in concert. He is an absolute perfectionist. He would puke if he saw this.

  • They look like finger puppets. Constantly nodding.

  • What are you listening to? Awful.

  • peter Framptom and the fountain of youth....wow....Peter himself would have a hard time covering his own song to this caliber...great job....!

  • Great cover. This is the best cover I have heard of this song yet.

  • lets not forget who recorded this song Peter Frampton!! I think they should have had the royalties in the side description.

  • GREAT JOB!!!!!!

  • You guys still together cuz you ARE the shit!

  • Dudes - I just THOUGHT we covered this band in the 80's! You guys killed it!!!! Massive props to this performance!!!

  • Greak fucking job. Spot on.

  • awesome talk box

  • really good!!!!!

  • holy shit balls monkey ass titty fuck!!! i think i just jizzed my pants

  • That's one of the best covers I've seen on Youtube period. I enjoyed the heck out of that!

  • Damn Good cover! This one kicked ass!! :D

  • For those of you who don't gig yourselves - This is just a cover of a great song and a pretty good one too - the key is determined by the vocal range and what the guitarist feel confident in playing. It ain't Frampton, (who has a higher pitched voice) Take it for what it is. A shit-hot local band doing it for the love of it.

  • but the talk box is pretty decent so you did an alright job

  • Haha was your first comment before the song finished?

  • Yeah but i think its a little to new and punkish for my liking.

  • "Darn kids!"

  • new and punkish? the original song was done by peter frampton, this a great old song and these guys sound alot like the song i like it (then again im also a fan of metal lol i might just be deaf to different types of music)

  • wow you shouldnt wreck an amazing song if you arent even in the right key

  • not the right key, too low!

  • Pardon me, but the key is correct. Listen again.....

  • It is the right 'key', just an octave below. Don't get me wrong, it still kicks ass!

  • framton would be impressed!AWSOME!!!!!!!!

  • Great workout of this famous tune on the same level of quality like PF done it! I'm exited - it rocks me really...

  • Tight

  • Yall are great

  • nice gold top lespaul

  • never mid didn't look at the other comment anyways you guys rock!!!!!!!!!!

  • You sound almost exactly like Frampton and his band.

  • fucking sweet

    no other way to put it

  • someone know´s the efecct processor?

  • These guys are very good!

  • I wish I felt as good as You do !

    But Your feelings are far too superior.

  • Just disrguad that last statement, you guys fukin rock.

  • This dude nailed this song.

  • You're fukin bad ass bro!You should come to Eureka CA. Humboldt california.Green scene.

  • lol

  • Yeah its not to bad, but as any cover occurs, the original is always better, pf original live version is just fuckng sik!

  • Yes, great cover version.

    One thing tho - PF looked like he was having fun and could interact with any crowd ...

  • Great job of Covering a Great song,,, by the Master of the Talk Box,, Mr Frampton!!

  • Way better performance than Peter, he can't even cover his original like this guy did. I don't even think he remembers doing it for the album.

  • fucking awesome job man, talkbox is not an easy instrument to play, and you did an amazing job

    cheers

  • The singer reminds me of a cross between Frank Hannon of Tesla and Mike Tramp of White Lion. Good job on the tune.

  • The singer is Frank Hannon From Tesla

  • Are you serious?I can't imagine why it would remind you of Frank Hannon,maybe because this is Frank Hannon.

  • Fantastic cover. 5*

  • Great!Sounds like Frampton!!Very Gooood!

  • This version rocks! Guys, you nailed it. YOU RULE!

  • i didnt know the sound man had anything to do with the tunings of the gutiars, news to me, u idiot

  • Kick Ass dudes,  Awesome version. Literally awesome.

  • Actually the mix sounds quite good for a small place like this.

    Garbagemex36

    Artist: Autechre

  • Good job, guys.  Nice tribute. Timing is very good. Talent is good. For someone who's heard the original and looks for those memorable notes, I have to say you guys did a great job.

  • Best cover ever , even to say "Bloody Awesome"

  • Any band big in the 80's & 90's w/ the big hair has gone bald by now. Nice Mane

  • You guys have done it right. I was a teen when the song was a hit and you guys have done it total justice! Outstanding job man!

  • Holy fucking shit, Frampton is proud. Great work! That hair is badass too :P.

  • Nice Job guys! Well done.  Nothing worse than a shitty cover band posting a shitty butchered version of a legendary classic on Utube...

    You've done the song justice.
