No it is Clem Clempson, he was in Humble Pie after Frampton left

I still think it is Peter. Clems hair was pretty straight and he was much taller than Steve but who knows.

I went on the google/interwebs

, and looked up Clem Clempson photos.
The picture in question is, uh, pictured.
While Clem does resemble PF in the pic, the guitar looks like Clem’s 57 gold top.
Both guys were a great fit for the band, and I love Clem’s playing on 30 Days …..
I think the photo is Clem.

“Is that a real poncho? I mean is that a Mexican poncho or is that a Sears poncho?”

I defer to your superior knowledge!
I think that I have only seen pics of Clem in a mask, before this, so I don't really know
what he looks like.

I still say that, in that picture, he looks like PF!

Thanks for the clarification Bill!! regards, RM

Truly great band, truly great lead guitarists.
I wore out Rockin’ The Fillmore, and my high school rock band covered a bunch of stuff (badly

) off it.
That said, Clem’s playing on 30 Days is my favorite of the Pie’s tunes.
Thanks for listening.

Peter Frampton was certainly better dressed than Clem! IMHO
