"Gloris Estefan rose to superstardom with LET IT LOOSE. I remember seeing the video for BETCHA SAY THAT. Big hits from the album are CAN'T STAY AWAY FROM YOU,RHYTHM IS GONNA GET YOU,ANYTHING FOR YOU and 1-2-3. I WANT YOU SO BAD is not to be confused with the same title on Heart's BAD ANIMALS album,released in 1987 just like this album. This is the next to last album bearing the artist Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine. This album was produced by Gloria's husband Emilio Estefan & The Jerks(obviously some buddies of his). Gloria's Epic Records labelmate Michael Jackson had a hit album in '87 also,BAD."

"In 1986, a year after the release of Primitive Love, Miami Sound Machine decided to do a name-change. They changed the name to Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine, since Gloria was the main focus of the band. By 1987, the band seemed to be even more famous than they thought, and only after releasing two albums: Eyes Of Innocence (1984) and Primitive Love (1985). In 1987, Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine released their third album, Let It Loose. Although, it did well on the charts, I don't favor the album too much, but there are some songs from this album that I love.BETCHA SAY THAT
This one of the songs that I favor from this album. It's lyrics are amazing and the sounds it really catchy.LET IT LOOSE
A pretty good dance song.CAN'T STAY AWAY FROM YOU
The first single from the band. Another one of my favorites. She can't stay away from her ex-boyfriend, while I can't get enough of this song.GIVE IT UP
Not a favorite.SURRENDER
Okay.RHYTHM IS GONNA GET YOU
The second single from the album. Another incredible classic. The beat is amazing and the song will remain an undestroyable classic.LOVE TOY
Okay.I WANT YOU SO BAD
Not bad.1-2-3
The third single from the album. Another undestroyable classic.ANYTHING FOR YOU
The fourth and final single from the album. Not as great. This is a pretty good album, but I don't favor it too much as I hoped I would, but it's still worth the money you're willing to pay."
