Angela Carrasco - Sus Cuatro Primeros Discos en Ariola Vol. 1 (1978-1983) [2CD Remastered] (2009)

Dominican singer (b. 1952). She moved from her native country to Spain, where she enjoyed success. She had her first hit when she was chosen to play Mary Magdalene together with Camilo Sesto in the first Spanish version of Jesus Christ Superstar in the mid-1970s. She also hit the airwaves in the late 1970s, with songs such as "Cariño Mio" ("Love of Mine") and "Quererte a Ti" ("Loving You"). "Quererte a Ti" in particular gave her much exposure all over Latin America, in the United States and Europe. She later had a great comeback with albums such as Dama del Caribe and Candela, as well as Angela. Her single "Boca Rosa" peaked at number-one in the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks chart in late 1988.
