Peter Frampton recalls the moment he knew something was wrong

Key Points:

• Peter Frampton, best known for his 1976 album Frampton Comes Alive!, has won only one Grammy, for his 2007 instrumental album Fingerprints, and is preparing to release a new album, Carry the Light, on May 15.
• Frampton reflects on his career with a sense of personal success, emphasizing self-acceptance and expressing regret over the rushed follow-up album I'm in You (1977) and the overwhelming pressure he faced at his peak.
• Carry the Light is a deeply personal and political album, created over three years with contributions from artists like Graham Nash, Sheryl Crow, and Tom Morello, inspired by Frampton's reflections on life, family, and the political climate.
• Frampton has been living with Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM), a progressive muscle-wasting disease diagnosed around 2014, which has affected his ability to perform and led to fewer public appearances since he revealed his condition in 2019.
• Despite the challenges posed by IBM, Frampton remains hopeful and positive about his future, adapting his playing style and focusing on acceptance rather than frustration over his condition.
