All I Really Want to Do (album)

All I Really Want to Do is the debut solo studio album by American singer and actress Cher, released on August 16, 1965, by Imperial Records. Issued while she was still recording as part of the duo Sonny & Cher, the album marked her first full-length project under her own name and represented a parallel launch to her work with Sonny Bono on Atco Records.

Produced by Bono with arrangements by Harold Battiste, and recorded at Gold Star Studios in Hollywood, the album is largely composed of cover versions, drawing from contemporary folk and rock material. Its repertoire includes songs by Bob Dylan, Ray Davies, and other established writers, alongside a small number of compositions associated with Bono.

Upon release, All I Really Want to Do was met with generally positive critical reception and achieved notable commercial success. Retrospective reviews have highlighted its production and Cher's vocal presence, while commercially it reached the top 20 in the United States and the top 10 in the United Kingdom.
