DISCO CLASSIC ALERT!!! This is a promotional copy of an album that never had a real "HIT", but had 6 out-of eight tracks played heavily in every DISCO. It was a take off on CLASSICAL music, with a Latin-DISCO flavor. Mostly an instrumental LP, the few vocals are perfect! Led by Celi Bee and Vivian Cherry. PEPE LUIS SOTO, Celi's old man, made this album with the T.K. studio musicians. In Miami, New York and Boston, this record album dominated the scene for a couple of months. One of the very early DISCO albums that was full of "Hidden Gems" and thus total to become a DISCO CLASSIC ALBUM! If you don't own one already, buy a copy tomorrow, they are out there, and probably cost less then they did thirty years ago! On my scale from 1-10, it gets a well deserved 10.
