Performance: Commercial Recording: Excellent Cher is almost too much — as almost every great cabaret star has been. But what makes her amusing and attractive and enjoyable is that, like the great cabaret stars of the past — Josephine Baker and Marlene Dietrich and so many others — one can sense a solid, hard-working performer underneath all the glitz, the kind of performer who would walk barefoot over ground glass with her hair on fire if she thought it would please or shock her audience. Also like her great predecessors, Cher is not the best singer technically, but she sure can sell the hell out of material that's right for her. She modestly allows in her notes for "I Paralyze" that John Farrar wrote the title song for her, "like a little present from John to me." Little present? It's the best piece of material Cher's gotten her hands on since she split I got you babe with Sonny Bono. The song itself isn't all that sensational, but Farrar's production and Cher's performance are. It's a totally artificial studio construction, but it's also a first-rate piece of commercial hit making. The rest of the album finds Cher in less competent hands than Farrar's, but she stalks and poses and camps through it with the kind of assurance that only real cabaret stars have. Stereo review, Volume 47 CBS Magazines, 1982 pagina 85-85
Cher's 1982 album I Paralyze was meant to inject her right into the middle of the rock world, but, alas, failed to make the charts. The best cut on the album was the song "Walk with Me" which was very reminiscent of the songs that made Cher mentor Phil Spector famous. The only cut on the album that Farrar produced was the title cut, "I Paralyze," which failed to become the hit single that Cher had longed for. The album received no publicity and sold very few copies. By the time the I Paralyze album was released, Cher was too busy with her acting career to promote it, and the LP, which was her strongest and most consistent solo album in years, died on the vine. Cher Mark Bego.
In June of 1982, a new imprint of the Columbia label, The Entertainment Company, released this now rare Cher album, which has since gone on to become one of the most sought after collectibles of Cher's recording career. In a Rolling Stone artice in April 1999, Cher was asked what was her favourite Cher single. Her response was, "There are two, and neither of them were hits. One was I Paralyze". She has even been quoted as saying she would like to re-record the song. The album was released at a time when Cher hadn't had a hit in three years, the last being "Take Me Home" in 1979. Charles Koppelman, the found of The Entertainment Company, was also the executive producer of her Take Me Home album on Casablanca Records. The release of the album also came at a time when Cher had decided to further her acting skills, and take a serious chance by leaving the guaranteed money of Las Vegas and move to New York for a part on Broadway. Where most trade ads for an artist's new record would list tour dates, the Billboard Magazine ad for I Paralyze listed her Broadway dates in Robert Altman's Come Back to the Five and Dime Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean. This was the beginning of an incredible career for Cher as a movie actress but, unfortunatley, the album did not fare as well. The album was produced by David Wolfert, except for the title track, which was produced and co-written by John Farrar. Farrar is best known as the mastermind behind Olivia Newton-John's extraordinary succcess, writing many and producing all of her number one hits. "I Paralyze", the second single from the album, was co-written with Steve Kipner, who also co-wrote "Physical" for Olivia. The first single, "Rudy" was written (along with four others) by Jacques Morali and Henri Belolo, who were the creative team and producers of the Village People. This song took Cher back to the "girl group" sound she knew so well as a back up singer for the Phil Spector sessions in the early 60s. I paralyze CD
