Cardiac Arrest is the debut album by American funk band Cameo.[5][6]
The album reached number 16 on the R&B charts.[7] It contains the hit singles "Rigor Mortis" and "Funk Funk".[8][9]
Rickey Vincent, in Funk: The Music, The People, and The Rhythm of The One, deemed the album an "exquisite [example] of the fertile, erotic realm of R&B-based funk at its most stretched out."[2]
