Today (January 16th) marks the thirtieth anniversary of She’s Strange, the tenth studio album from Cameo. In 1984, it spent twenty-four weeks on the US Billboard Album chart, peaking at number 27. It also spent thirty-two weeks on the US Billboard R&B chart and reached the number 1 spot. Singer/actress/model Vanity once again appeared on the album cover (she also appeared on the cover of the band’s 1982 album Alligator Woman).
