PETER FRAMPTON, THE CROTON CONNECTION 1979

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton -- our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Since this recently came up in conversation--and courtesy of The Croton Historical Society--yes, Peter Frampton did indeed live right outside Croton and was a frequent visitor. Click on the images below.

  4. They rented a house in Crotonville to record as I recall. His “roadies” used to come to Gallagher’s often. He came one time. They gave my brother John and I 2 tickets to their show at the Garden including back stage passes.... that was a party....😳

    1. Hey, so we have a piece of serendipity first of all I was one of those roadies ..
      Number two as I met my wife in that bar. And number three is two days ago we had dinner there as we passed through town. I was actually looking for peters address just to see what the house looks like now when I stumbled on this thread.

    2. Not sure if this will get published, but I’m gonna try again. First of all, I was one of those roadies back then second of all you may remember that my wife and I met in your bar. Strangely enough the two of us stop by for a bite to eat after 40 years about two days ago. The only reason I’m on the side as I was curious what the house look like now where Peter used to live. Let’s see if this publishes anonymously.

    4. Hi Kevin, guess what. See the roadies above. Well, I am them. In fact, my current wife and I met at the bar when we were living up the street. Nice to see you’re around and oh by the way we stopped in and ate at the new place the other day. Best to you and your brother.
