Fame (album)
''Fame'' is the second studio album by Grace Jones, released in 1978 by Island Records.
==Background==
After a relative success with her debut release, Grace Jones and Tom Moulton delivered a rapid follow-up album to ''Portfolio''. ''Fame'', recorded in Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia, consisted of a set of mainstream-oriented disco tracks and repeated the scheme of the previous album. Like on ''Portfolio'', side A was a continuous medley, and side B again opened with a re-interpretation of a French classic, this time it was Jacques Prévert's "Les Feuilles mortes", sung in English as "Autumn Leaves". The album was "dedicated with love to a true Artist, Jean-Paul Goude", as Jones put it in the liner notes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=R-1081686-1298753776.jpeg (JPEG Image, 600 × 614 pixels) - Scaled (97%) )〕
The Canadian edition of the original vinyl album included another French language track, "Comme un oiseau qui s'envole", which replaced "All on a Summers Night" and, in most other territories, was issued as the B-side of the single "Do or Die". On Japanese version of the album "Comme un oiseau qui s'envole" replaced "Below the Belt", which in turn in Italy was omitted in favour of an Italian song "Anema e core". A number of songs from the album, including "Anema e core", have been performed in Italian TV show ''Stryx'', which ran in late 1978.
The album was a hit on the North American club scene, and the "Do or Die"/"Pride"/"Fame" side reached top 10 on both the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play and Canadian Dance/Urban charts. ''Fame'' also charted respectably in Italy and Sweden which were Jones' most successful markets during the disco era. The album was issued in CD format in early 1990s, but has soon gone out of print. It was not available in any digital format until November 2011, when it received an official remastered CD release by Gold Legion, a record company that specializes in reissuing classic disco albums on CD. The re-release came with no bonus tracks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Grace Jones Fame )〕 It was first released on CD in the UK in 2015, along with ''Portfolio'' and ''Muse'', as part of the ''Disco'' boxed set of Jones' first three "disco" era albums. Each album in the set came with seven bonus tracks.
