Peter Frampton has attacked record labels saying their days are numbered after still waiting more than two months for the release of his duet on The Voice with Terry McDermott.

Frampton appeared on The Voice back in December. Normally the turn-around for something like this is within days but not for this one.
Peter explained in a Facebook post:
“With the record industry being in the state it is – which is not good – you’d of thought the duet with myself and Terry McDermott from The Voice would have been rushed overnight to iTunes.
“But no!
“It just amazes me how slow record companies work. Their days are numbered and not even fear of extinction seems to makes them pull their fingers out. Lawyers have to be brought in to write up a deal and yadda, yadda, yadda!!
“I don’t want this out because it will make a lot of money. It absolutely won’t!! It was a fun thing to do and you guys seemed to like it and you want to hear it again.
“So we have demand – where’s the supply?
“When was the show? …………. I rest my case!”
Peter Frampton wrote ‘Baby I Love Your Way’ in 1975 for his ‘Frampton’ album but it was the live version on ‘Frampton Comes Alive’ in 1976 that became the global hit.
The song was also covered in 1994 by Big Mountain and their version featured in the movie ‘Reality Bites’.
