Album title: Stars
Singers: Cher , Simply Red
Release year: 1975
Stars is the 12th studio album by American singer Cher, released in 1975 by Warner Bros. Records. The album was one in a string of commercial flops for Cher in the 1970s and failed to chart within the top 100. The album is by-and-large a covers album.

Stars was released April 19, 1975. It was the first record for Warner Bros. Records and was produced by Jimmy Webb. The album was also her very first without Sonny's influence as it followed Cher's divorce with Sonny and the dissolution of her relationship with David Geffen. The album reviews were good, but sales were below expectations despite promotion.

Two singles, "These Days" and "Geronimo's Cadillac", were released to promote the album's release. Both songs did not enter the charts. To help sales, Cher performed material from the album on the "The Carol Burnett Show" and "The Flip Wilson Show". The songs performed were "Love Hurts", Just This One Time" and "Geronimo's Cadillac".

In early 1975, Cher began recording with Phil Spector. These sessions beget the songs "A Woman's Story," and the previously recorded song by The Ronettes, "Baby, I Love You." However, due to Spector's expensive use of studio time, the album was eventually shelved. These songs were released as singles but were unsuccessful; these releases are now considered hard-to-find rarities. Cher then turned to Jimmy Webb to record this album.

The album has never been released on CD or iTunes. According to Billboard, Cher owned this album's master right and Warner had no right to reissue.
