Editing Peter Frampton (section)

=== Setbacks and decline in popularity ===
Frampton's following album, ''[[I'm in You]]'' (1977), contained the hit title single and went platinum, but fell well short of expectations compared to ''[[Frampton Comes Alive!]]''.<ref name="60s70s" /> He starred, with the [[Bee Gees]], in producer [[Robert Stigwood]]'s poorly received film ''[[Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (film)|Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band]]'' (1978). Frampton's career seemed to be falling as quickly as it had risen.<ref name="60s70s" /><ref name="TCE-2001-02-04" /> He also played guitar on the [[Grease (song)|title song]] of the 1978 film [[Grease (film)|''Grease'']], a song newly written for the film by [[Barry Gibb]].

Frampton suffered a near-fatal car accident in the Bahamas in 1978 that marked the end of his prolific period and the beginning of a long period during which he was less successful. He returned in 1979 to record the album ''[[Where I Should Be]]''. Among those contributing to the album were past band members [[Stanley Sheldon]] (bass), [[Bob Mayo]] (keyboards/guitar/vocals), and [[John Siomos]] (drums/vocals).<ref name="60s70s" /><ref name="AllMusic-Bio" />

In 1980, Frampton's album ''[[Rise Up (Peter Frampton album)|Rise Up]]'' was released to promote his tour in Brazil, although he suffered another serious setback that year when all his guitars were thought destroyed in a [[Latin Carga Convair CV-880 crash|cargo plane crash]] that killed four people. Among the instruments he lost was the black [[Gibson Les Paul|Les Paul]] Custom which he had named "Phenix"<ref name=GibsonGuitarGreats>[http://www.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/Gibson-Guitar-Greats-Peter-Frampton.aspx Gibson Guitar Greats: Peter Frampton] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180916235152/http://www.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/Gibson-Guitar-Greats-Peter-Frampton.aspx |date=16 September 2018 }}, at Gibson.com; published 4 April 2017; retrieved 16 September 2018</ref> (pictured on the cover of ''Frampton Comes Alive'') given to him by Mark Mariana and first used on the night of the recording of the Humble Pie live album ''Performance'', and which he had used all through his early solo career.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.gibson.com/news-lifestyle/features/en-us/peterframptontalksaboutwan.aspx |title=Gibson Guitars: "Peter Frampton On Wanting to Find a New Guitar, Not Wanting to Be Alive, and Definitely Not Wanting to be Eric Clapton" |website=Gibson.com |access-date=29 January 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180130091310/http://www.gibson.com/news-lifestyle/features/en-us/peterframptontalksaboutwan.aspx |archive-date=30 January 2018}}</ref> As it turned out the guitar was saved from burning in the crash and sold to a musician; many years later it was recovered and returned to him, in December 2011.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/01/03/peter-frampton-reunited-with-best-guitar-after-31-years/?_r=0|title=Peter Frampton Reunited with 'Best Guitar' After 31 Years|first=James C.|last=McKinnley Jr.|date=3 January 2012|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|access-date=3 January 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150204143134/http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/01/03/peter-frampton-reunited-with-best-guitar-after-31-years/?_r=0|archive-date=4 February 2015|url-status=live}}</ref> The album eventually turned into ''[[Breaking All the Rules (Peter Frampton album)|Breaking All the Rules]]'', released the next year in 1981. <ref>{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.se/books?id=UK0iAAAAIBAJ&pg=PA16&dq=%22Rise+Up%22+Peter+Frampton+album&article_id=3547,2986018&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi46o_zj5yNAxVVIxAIHZvqF9AQ6AF6BAgFEAM#v=onepage&q=%22Rise%20Up%22%20Peter%20Frampton%20album&f=false |title=Beaver Country Times |publisher=Beaver County Times |language=en}}</ref>These albums were the first he recorded almost completely live.<ref name=80s>{{cite web |url=http://www.frampton.com/80.html |title=Peter Frampton History – 80's |website=Frampton.com |access-date=11 March 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131015061814/http://www.frampton.com/80.html |archive-date=15 October 2013 }}</ref> In 1982, following the release of ''[[The Art of Control]]'', Frampton tried unsuccessfully to split his ties with [[A&M Records]]; he re-signed with the label in 2006 and released his [[Grammy Award]]–winning ''[[Fingerprints (Peter Frampton album)|Fingerprints]]''.<ref name="GRAMMY">{{cite web| url = {{AllMusic|class=artist|id=p4302|pure_url=yes}} | title = Grammy awards | work = [[AllMusic]]| access-date = 17 December 2008}}</ref>
