Peter Frampton has been eligible for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame since 1998 but wasn’t nominated until this year. That long wait might be because his inclusion is based more on talent and influence than popularity.
His biggest hit was ‘I’m in You,’ which reached #2 for three weeks in 1977. I’d never heard that song before looking it up to write this blog entry. Same goes for his other top ten hits, ‘Show Me the Way’ and ‘Do You Feel Like We Do.’ I just haven’t encountered those songs over the years the way I have so many other 70s classics.
