I'm Nearly Famous is the eighteenth studio album by Cliff Richard, released in May 1976.

The album is considered one of his finest works and is held as the album which brought about Cliff Richard's revival as a major chart act.[2][3][4] The lead single on the album, "Miss You Nights", made number 15 in the UK Singles Chart in early 1976, followed by "Devil Woman" which showed a new harder-edged side to Richard's music and became one of his biggest worldwide hits, peaking at number 9 in the UK and becoming his first US Top 10, reaching number 6 and earning a gold disc for sales of half a million. "I Can't Ask for Anymore Than You" was the third single, reaching number 17 in the UK and number 80 in the US.
