Very sad to hear of Irene Cara's passing. And at only 63.
Irene Cara's 1983 album, What a Feelin' was the 4th Compact Disc I bought as a late teenager. I remember riding my bike down to Kmart at Pacific Fair and paying $17.88 for it. In the early days of CD, they'd offer about 6% off the list price. And, their CDs were protected in locked acrylic cases as I hated scratches on the jewel cases.
Not only do I still have that original disc in my collection, it is in absolutely mint condition (but you expected that, right?).
A very early CBS Sony Records release (CSR around the centre hub IIRC) , smooth edge case and of course, Made in Japan. I'll have to dig it out for a play tonight.
