Score is the debut album by American recording artist Carol Lloyd, released on December 31, 1979, through Casablanca Records and Earmarc Records. Following Lloyd's signing with Earmarc, a new label division of Casablanca, she began recording material for the record throughout the latter half of 1979. A disco album, Score was one of the first projects to be released from the label, which specialized solely in disco music. All six of the tracks on the record were produced by Michael Forte and Bruce Weeden, with the former individual also contributing lyrics to four of the aforementioned songs.
Lloyd released "Score" and "Shake Me, Wake Me" as singles to promote the album, with the latter receiving heavy airplay from disc jockeys, entering Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart at number 89, and being noted as a standout track from Score; the album was similarly well received by music critics. In the 2010s, Score was reissued by the Essential Media Group in two different formats, with the most recent one in 2016 featuring three bonus tracks.
