It's hard to feel sorry for a man who's sold tens of millions of records, but you still can't help but empathize with Peter Frampton. After spending years proving himself a hotshot guitarist with Humble Pie and others, he scored a monster hit with 1976's eternal Frampton Comes Alive!, only to lose his entire new following with the double whammy of I'm In You and the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band movie. His entire subsequent career has been a quest to return to his journeyman musician roots, and he's weathered it well; he even won his first Grammy this year.
