Andrea True Connection ~ New York You Got Me Dancing 1977 Disco Purrfection Version

Описание: Andrea Marie Truden went by many names like most pornographic actors, but is best known as disco singer Andrea True and her hit "More, More More". Moving to New York to become a legitimate actress she did achieve some success even showing up in Barbra Streisand's "The Way We Were", but that career never took off. She began a career in porn thinking it would open some doors to her for legitimate roles. In 1975 she was hired by a Jamaican real estate firm to appear in some commercials for them. While there, things got more exciting than she thought and during a crisis, the island nation did not allow anyone to leave the island with any money they earned there. So she decided to ask her friend Gregg Diamond to come down and produce some songs for her using the locals and their studio, thus spending her money in a way that might help her career and keeping it in Jamaica. Their collaboration resulted in a smash hit with "More, More, More", which peaked at #5 on the Hot 100. Around this time, she had noted she was tired of porn and wanted a recording career. Her second album "White Witch" contained her second biggest hit, "New York You Got Me Dancing" that used most of the sounds that "More More More" had but at a pumped up speed. It peaked at #27 in the US. Another single from the LP "What's Your Name, What's Your Number" became a UK hit. A third LP saw her taking a hard dance rock stance with "War Machine" that was released in Europe only. After that LP failed, she briefly returned to porn, but had developed goiter which required surgery that destroyed her singing voice. She moved to Los Angeles then to New York, where she passed away on November 7, 2011 at the age of 68. The impact of her music is still felt today through samples on contemporary songs like Len "Steal My Sunshine" and covers like Bananarama "More More More".
