Cherished

Cherished is the fourteenth studio album by American singer-actress Cher, released on June 4, 1977 as Cher's final studio album released by Warner Bros. Records. This album, like several other predecessors, was a commercial failure and failed to chart. The album was promoted by the release of the lead single, "Pirate" which charted at #93 on the Billboard Hot 100 and a second single, "War Paint and Soft Feathers" which failed to chart. "Pirate" was the only single from the 70s Warner era to chart despite the album being her lowest selling album of her entire career.

Cherished was the last Cher studio album produced by Snuff Garrett. Although The Cher Show was a top 10 ratings hit, the 1975-77 period was unsuccessful for her, and Cherished did no better than its predecessors, Stars and I'd Rather Believe in You. The album sold very little, failed in the charts and was ignored by critics and fans. Also, Cher was dissatisfied with the final results of the album, and in an interview, she said that she never enjoyed making this album and only made it because of the contract deal with Warner Bros.
