Ahhh, a post written for me...
The Fame album is a live album from a concert by the TV series cast that was born from the movie. Irene Cara, didn't want to reprise her role as Coco as she wanted to focus on her music. The role of Coco was given to Erica Gimpel, who was primarily a dancer.
One of the actors from the film who did make it to the TV show was the amazing Debbie Allen, an incredibly talented dancer, choreographer and actor.
Anyway, you'll be happy to hear that the Kids from Fame are still touring intermittently right up until the present day.
By the way. Sadly, Irene Cara had a heart attack and died about 4 years ago at only 61.
Enjoy the clip and enjoy the vinyl!

Have they renamed themselves Oldies from Fame😆
Seriously, sounds like you're quite a Fame fan! I never watched either the movie nor the TV show, but I know it was very popular. The fact the Kids from Fame are still touring is a testament to that.
I read about Irene Cara's death when writing this piece, that so sad at such a young age. But anyway, thanks for sharing a lovely MV.
