Album Notes & Community Reviews

Amanda Lear capitalizes on her enigmatic persona with this rhythmic, deeply synthesized Euro-disco debut. Her deadpan, spoken-sung delivery provides a sophisticated, almost satirical counterpoint to the driving, dancefloor-oriented backing tracks. The album became a significant success across European discotheques.
