    Irene Cara really knew what she was doing in 1979 when this was originally made! The new version of this movie sucked!

    Irene Cara was part of the cast of Fame, a song about the students attending the New York School for the Performing Arts. Her singing and acting was top-notch, and the story was a compelling look at what it takes to becoming a performing artist. T o succeed, you have to have the hide of a Rhinoceros, and the reflexes of a King Cobra, and the ability to get up after life has knocked you down. Working for a living is easier. Still, she has been successful following her desire to be a performer, and we are lucky to have seen her grow. Much of the musical score was written by Michael Gore, Leslie's brother!

    I love the original movie - so classic early 80's - I was way young when it came out and it encapsulated everything I dreamed I could be, or talents I could possess - awesome movie...

Description

Remastered for the first time since it debuted in 1980! 2003 reissue include three bonus tracks, 'Out Here On My Own' (Instrumental Version), 'Fame' (Instrumental Version), & the previously unreleased, 'Miles From Here'. Rhino. We don't know whether Fame will, like its iconic, Irene Cara-sung title song insists, "live forever." But director Alan Parker's vibrant, ambitious 1980 tale of New York's High School of the Performing Arts has been remarkably influential, spawning a TV series, stage musical, and helping cast the mold--for better or worse--for the decades of pop-song dominated soundtracks that followed in its wake. But the innocent, urgent charms of the original won't be denied, and this release marks the album's first digital remastering, an edition supplemented by three previously unreleased bonus tracks (the wistful ballad "Miles From Here," as well as instrumental versions of the title track and Top 20 Cara hit, "Out Here on My Own," that underscore composer Michael Gore's pop-disco inspirations). --Jerry McCulley
