Biography

As disco became an important part of the international music business, European producers began working in exotic flavors into the disco beat to create unique and competitive recordings. A good example of this trend is Santa Esmeralda, a Spanish-themed studio group that wove elements of flamenco, salsa, and other Latin musical styles into its Euro-disco sound. Although the group's sound was about… Read more in Amazon's Santa Esmeralda Store

3.0 out of 5 stars an unexpected gem among more generic disco, September 18, 2007
By skyfoxx (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This album is still a very much disco album released in 1982. But here is the difference - much of the previous releases by Santa Esmeralda were packed to the gills by covers of disco standards authored by other bands and performers [that is not fully true but I am trying to make a point here so cut me some slack]. This one is almost all originals and what is more important, this is disco done with a more pronounced Latino accent. Of course, Siboney is quite a standard Latin musical number, Fortune Teller and Eye Of The Cat are very nice but the title track steals the show here with its fusion of southern rhythm and relentless drive of disco beat. Sweet Fusion is also another favorite of mine.
