In 1980 Eddie Drennon produced this obscure and great Latin Disco album. Some tracks are only covers of famous songs with Latin arrangements, but "My Cherie Amour" is an incredible disco gem full of hot breaks and with a perfect arrangement. Other noteable track is "Dance, Dance, Dance", an original composition.
