Product Description
CD Description
Perennial pop princess Sinitta s debut album is given a double CD Deluxe Edition reissue on Cherry Pop.
Originally released in December 1987, "Sinitta!" features four UK Top 20 singles the million-selling smash "So Macho" and three classic Stock Aitken Waterman hits - "Toy Boy", "G.T.O." and "Cross My Broken Heart" alongside the Hi-NRG classic "Cruising" and the US club #1, "Feels Like The First Time".
Digitally remastered direct from the original master tapes, this release features no less than 21 exclusive bonus tracks across two discs, many of them never before available on CD. Featured in both 7" and 12" form are Sinitta s very first singles, "Never Too Late" and "I Could Be", originally released on Midas Records in 1983. With the former boasting an early remix credit for Madonna collaborator John "Jellybean" Benitez, scarce vinyl copies of these highly sought-after disco classics have long commanded high prices, and this Deluxe Edition exclusively marks their first-ever release on CD.
Previously unreleased in the UK, extended versions of two Paul Hardcastle productions, "Oh Boy (You ve Got A Lot To Learn)" and "If I Let You Go", appear alongside a comprehensive selection of 12" mixes of all the UK single releases. Also featured is "Showdown" - the original version of the track that become "So Macho", albeit with completely
different lyrics, which was previously only available as the B-side of "Cruising".
The extensive booklet also features additional photos, an illustrated discography, full lyrics and new sleeve notes. The daughter of disco diva Miquel Brown, Sinitta made her name on the West End stage and as a one-time member of Hot Gossip before becoming the first artist to be signed by Simon Cowell. After initial success on the club scene, her chart breakthrough came with the reissue of "So Macho" in 1986, which was followed by an enviable run of international hits with Stock Aitken Waterman and the PWL Hit Factory.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great reissue and setting the record straight,
By Music Mixer 101 (Florida USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sinitta! (Audio CD)
After reading several reviews I contacted Cherry Pop Records to clear up the confusion I felt and they are always amazing and considerate about responding to any question. Here is what the project manager wrote about concerns regarding track Toy Boy (The Extended Bicep Mix)which is on CD1 Track 15."The Extended Bicep Mix 7:03 This is the mix with the rap intro and breakdown which appeared on first pressings of the original 1987 'Toy Boy' UK 12" single (12FAN 12), and accordingly was sourced for this reissue from the original production master Umatic for this 12" single... As a footnote, this mix is much sought-after, having never been issued on CD in the UK before (I believe the only previous digital release was a Finnish CD compilation back in the 80s...!); and on the Hit Factory Forum and elsewhere there was a clear desire for this particular mix to be included. A minority of people seem to have expected this instead: Extended Bicep Mix 7:38 This longer mix, without the rap intro and breakdown, appeared on certain 12" singles (including later pressings of 12FAN 12) and perhaps more notably on the original 1987 'Sinitta!' CD album (CD BOY 1)and is a pretty widespread release that most fans and collectors would already have... Accordingly, we decided to omit this mix and instead to use the original The Extended Bicep Mix. Admittedly, this is somewhat esoteric information...but the distinction between the two mixes is accurately reflected in the discography on Page 6 of the booklet. The 'Brand New Megamix' on CD2 is a totally distinct later mix by Pete Hammond done for the first Hit Factory compilation in September 1987, as covered in my sleeve notes." Cherry Pop continues to be one of the best reissue labels as this Sinitta reissue demonstrates. The CD sound quality is top notch and the song selection for this collection was deliberate and thoughtful as this above response shows. Buy this you won't be disappointed. Also check out the reissue of Sinitta's Wicked as a companion to this one.

Two TOY BOY versions missing...,
By
This review is from: Sinitta! (Audio CD)
This is a great re-issue but sadly two great TOY BOY versions are missing.The most well known EXTENDED BICEP MIX and the PUMPED UP MEGAMIX (which is a little longer 10' long but the same as the bicep mix) As another reviewer said the original extended bicep mix is missing and the title to the track #15 in the first cd is wrong. What we have here actually is THE OVER EXTENDED BICEP MIX (and not the extended bicep mix) with the rap intro which is very hard to find and it's great to have it in this cd BUT they should have included the original extended bicep mix and the punped up megamix but they didn't that's why i give this 4 stars. Anyways, all the other stuff is here with extended versions of songs never released before and also the pwl remix of the SO MACHO song is included. Now we wait for more gems to be re-issued like the following: KIM APPLEBY - Same title BANANARAMA - wow NICKI FRENCH - secrets PAT & MICK - Don't stop dancing SYBIL - Good n' ready BOMB THE BASS - UNKNOWN TERRITORY J.T & THE BIG FAMILY - Same title DONNA SUMMER - another place & time ETC...

Well worth the wait!,
This review is from: Sinitta! (Audio CD)
Thrilled when I heard 'Sinitta' this was going to be given the top shelf treatment and it delivers on all counts.Great remixes, quality production and no fillers! Well worth the price and wait..and anyone who loves Stock Aitken & Waterman pop you couldnt ask for better! Mind you I havent heard 'Wicked' special edition yet but will soon if this was anything to go by!!
