AllMusic Staff Pick: Cherrelle Fragile

Cheryl Norton had been working since the late '70s with Michael Henderson and Luther Vandross, but she didn't take the spotlight until 1984 with help from Clarence Avant's Tabu label and producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. The debut from the lively soprano featured "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On," one of the year's most energetic hits -- months before Chaka Khan's "I Feel for You" and Teena Marie's "Lovergirl" -- covered by Robert Palmer and Mariah Carey. The peppy title song also charted, and "When You Look in My Eyes" is among the era's finest deep-cut slow jams.
