Background

Peter Frampton pursued a grittier sound on his album Frampton's Camel. It was recorded at Jimi Hendrix's old Electric Lady Studios. Four years later, Frampton would record there again for I'm in You.

The album shared its name with the band Frampton assembled in 1972, which was more of a group project, including bassist Rick Wills, new drummer John Siomos, and keyboardist Mick Gallagher. In fact, early editions of the LP, eight-track and cassettes all listed and denoted the album as Frampton's Camel by Frampton's Camel.
