He was like a fine wine just getting better with age. A great song in '67 made even greater 40 years later.

G'day!

That vid. above with Simon Kirke on drums, Jack Bruce on bass, and Frampton on guitar is fantastic! Thank goodness for You Tube.
And thanks, Rocketman for the thread. Us boomers really lived through an amazing era in rock! Godspeed Mr Brooker.....

Gary had claimed during an interview on CKUA that this was his best live performance.
