Cameo - Ugly Ego

Today Marks The 47th Anniversary of Cameo’s 3rd Studio Album “Ugly Ego” Originally Released on September 25, 1978.

“Ugly Ego” is the third studio album by American funk band Cameo, released in 1978 on Chocolate City Records.

The album reached #16 on the U.S. Billboard Soul LP's chart and at #88 on the U.S. Billboard Top LPs & Tapes chart.

Two songs were released as singles from the album "Give Love a Chance" and "Insane".

"Give Love a Chance" reached #76 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart.

"Insane" reached #17 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart.

This album is often paired with the digitally remastered Secret Omen (1979), which featured their first R&B hits, and some reviewers suggest Ugly Ego is a vital early work for fans interested in the band's evolution.
