I'm in You is Peter Frampton's fifth studio album, released in 1977.
Background
I'm in You was released almost a year and a half after his blockbuster 1976 album, Frampton Comes Alive! [2][3] It was recorded at Electric Lady Studios in New York, where Frampton's Camel had been recorded four years earlier.[citation needed]
Guest musicians Stevie Wonder, Richie Hayward, Mike Finnigan, Ringo Starr, and Mick Jagger are featured on this album. [citation needed]
I'm in You rose to the No. 2 slot in the US on the Billboard album charts. In Canada, the album entered the chart directly at #1.[4] The title track became his most successful single yet, and the album and same-titled single reached platinum and #2, respectively. On the Cash Box singles chart, I'm in You reached No. 1, as it also did in Canada.[5][6]
Frank Zappa ridiculed the title track of this album in the song "I Have Been in You" and in the monologue "Is That Guy Kidding or What?"[7]
