Reaching for the Sky is the second album by soul vocalist Peabo Bryson.

Released in 1978, Reaching for the Sky was Bryson's debut album on Capitol Records, charting with Quiet Storm staple "Feel the Fire" at number 13 on the R&B singles chart.

This tune was covered by Stephanie Mills in 1979 on her What Cha' Gonna Do with My Lovin' album and again in 1980 by Teddy Pendergrass as a duet with Mills on his TP album.

The midtempo title track, "Reaching for the Sky", was even more commercially successful, reaching number 6 on the R&B chart.
