5.0 out of 5 stars Putting This Hit On The Line, November 12, 2003

By

This review is from: I'm In You (Audio CD)

I don't have a CD copy of this album,but I have gone through three copies of it,two on cassette and one on the defunct 8-track tape. My dad bought the first cassette copy in or around 1977 when this album was released and kept it in his car(there was a cassette player in his 1973 Plymouth with auto reverse!). The destructive child I was back then removed all the magnetic tape from the outer shell. He also bought with it a cassette copy of FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE. I removed the magnetic tape from that one also. The 8-track tape I sold at a garage sale years ago. I lost the second cassette copy somewhere. The late John Ritter presented an LP copy of this album on a 1977 episode of Three's Company. Although this album is now available on CD,I could never find it everytime I set foot in a disc and tape store. Now for the songs:the title track was a big hit,a beautiful love ballad. TRIED TO LOVE has Mick Jagger's background vocals. ROCKY'S HOT CLUB was written for Peter Frampton's dog Rocky. The harmonica heard in that song is played by Stevie Wonder. Stevie's 1970 hit SIGNED,SEALED,DELIVERED,I'M YOURS is covered by Frampton and co-written by Stevie. ROAD RUNNER(probably not a reference to the Warner Brothers cartoon character) is full of soul also. The other songs are great also. This album was a million-seller as was FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE. After this album,Frampton would collaborate with the Bee Gees for the movie SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND,based on the famous Beatles compositions and recordings. We can put this album on the Top 100 A&M albums of all-time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Frampton's under-rated follow-up to his smash live album, August 4, 2001

By 

Pete Walker (Church Stretton, Shropshire, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: I'm In You (Audio CD)

With this 1977 album, Peter Frampton faced the fundamental problem of how to adequately follow such a smash hit as 'Frampton comes alive', which had taken the world by storm the previous year. Typically, many critics were quick to dismiss the new record as being an inadequate, rushed and lightweight follow-up. However, one wonders whether they would have given it a more sympathetic hearing if the live album had never existed.

As a keen Frampton aficionado two years before 'Comes alive' was released, I bought 'I'm in you' on vinyl as soon as it was issued, eager to hear how the artist had moved on from his creditable 1975 release 'Frampton'. Whilst the cover of the new album blatantly cashed in on his current 'pin-up' image (perhaps undermining the credibility of the record in the process), and there was an unnecessary sycophantic liner note, the music did not particularly attempt to replicate the sound and style of the live album, although the lively pairing of two old Motown songs did reflect Peter's enjoyment of performing. Rather than opening with an upbeat track, the album's first song was the memorable synthesizer-laden ballad 'I'm in you', which I had first heard as a solo piano encore at a Frampton concert in late 1976. The rest of the album unfolded with upbeat tracks strongly featuring distinctive synthesizer sounds (a new direction for Frampton), the long, funky 'Won't you be my friend', pleasant ballads with melodic guitar solos, and a jazzy acoustic number featuring harmonica by Stevie Wonder. So my first impression was that, in the face of excessively high expectations, Frampton had produced an album of good consistent quality which represented a further step forward from his previous studio efforts, and I was certainly not disappointed.

Despite the passing years and the many changes in musical styles since it was released, I still enjoy many of the songs on this album, and would certainly recommend it to anyone who appreciates Frampton's music and recognises that there is a lot more to his work than loud stadium rock. And with most of Peter's work having been unavailable on CD for years, the prospect of several of his early albums now being available in remastered form is very welcome indeed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Frampton Classic...., August 6, 2000

I remembr for my 11th birthday, my mom bought me this album. Yes, "ALBUM", not CD. I know its hard to imagine record albums this day and age, but im proud to say I grew up listening to 70's music, and Peter Frampton was one of em. Im in you never really made it big for Frampton, like the Comes Alive recording did, but it shines in its own way. The title song, Im In You Is great, Rocky's Hot Club has the "FRAMPTON SOUND". All in all, If you like Peter Frampton, and you like the Comes Alive recording, you will like this one as well. Great music never goes out of style, it just gets better as years go by....
