Mi Chico Favorito

Estrada, Susana

Mi Chico Favorito
HIGHLIGHTS "Amor y libertad" (1981) is the LP recorded by an erotic disco project fronted by actress and model Susana Estrada, with Josep Llobell (Oliver's Planet, Enterprise_) serving as the visionary producer working behind the scenes. From this album, we have selected two of its finest tracks to be reissued for the first time on 7-inch format. On 'Mi chico favorito,' Susana Estrada's sensual voice rides over a musical backing clearly inspired by 'Good Times' by Chic, likely via 'Rapper's Delight' by The Sugarhill Gang, making it just as irresistible. On the B-side, we release '¡Quítate el sostén!' as a single for the first time-a funky disco-rap anthem packed with feminist statements. DESCRIPTION The end of the dictatorship in Spain ushered in a period of openness that included a kind of sexual revolution, in which the female body was shown nude in magazines and films in a way that had never been seen before. Susana Estrada-model, actress, and singer-became one of the country's most popular sex symbols after appearing in numerous films of the so-called "cine de destape" (softcore Spanish cinema of the 70s) and in the pages of erotic magazines. Meanwhile, Josep Llobell was a Catalan musician, composer, and producer who pioneered the introduction of cosmic disco and Italo sounds to Spain, styles that were gaining momentum across Europe at the time. His records as Oliver's Planet and Enterprise are among the most sought-after titles by collectors of late-'70s European disco music. Bringing these two figures together gave birth to this erotic disco project, with Susana Estrada as its public face and Llobell as the visionary producer working behind the scenes. "Amor y libertad," their LP released in 1981 on the Sauce label-associated with the popular Belter-has since become a cult recording within the international cosmic disco scene. From this album, we have selected two of its finest tracks to be reissued for the first time on a 45. On "Mi chico favorito," Susana Estrada's sensual voice is set against a musical backing clearly inspired in "Good Times" by Chic, most likely via "Rapper's Delight" by The Sugarhill Gang-resulting in a track every bit as irresistibly infectious as those classics . On the B-side, we reissue "¡Quítate el sostén!" as a single for the first time, an anthem filled with feminist declarations ("the time for girls has come_") and messages of sexual liberation ("let them say what they want, it's freedom-our freedom_"), which the singer delivers in a proto-rap style over a funky disco beat.
