I recently started posting albums from the "Live at the Record Plant" KSAN radio show. Here's another one of those. This one is from 1975 and stars Peter Frampton.
For a couple of years in the late 1970s, Frampton was a musical superstar. That was due entirely to the 1976 live album "Frampton Comes Alive!" It hit Number One on the U.S. album charts, and sold eight million copies in the U.S. That was unprecedented for a double live album.
But that was still nearly a year away when this concert happened. This was in early 1975, the same month that the studio album "Frampton" was released. "Frampton Comes Alive!" wouldn't be released until January 1976. So Frampton was still relatively unknown. At the time of this concert, Frampton hadn't had any hits as a solo artist. (However, he'd had more success as a member of Humble Pie before that.) None of his albums sold well either. A big reason "Frampton Comes Alive!" was such a huge success was that his career had essentially been ignored up until then. So the live album served as a kind of greatest hits, with lots of good songs that most people were unfamiliar with. For instance, the 1975 album "Frampton" contained studio versions of "Show Me the Way" and "Baby I Love Your Way." But they tanked when they were released as singles. Only when they were released in live versions in 1976 were they big hits.
This concert contains "Baby, I Love Your Way," as well as the talk-box extravaganza "Do You Feel like I Do." But it curiously doesn't contain "Show Me the Way," even though it was the lead single for the studio album he was promoting at the time. This is pretty different from "Frampton Comes Alive!" because, even though it was performed live, it was done in a radio station studio with no audience applause whatsoever.
The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent.
This album is 57 minutes long.

All I know about the cover photo is it's from some time in the mid-1970s, probably 1975.
