Let It Loose (album)

Let It Loose is the tenth studio album by Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine, released in 1987. It is the first studio album to feature a specific credit for Estefan, but is her 10th album overall including her work with Miami Sound Machine. Initially gaining little attention in Europe, the success of the single "Anything for You" led to the album being re-released under that name, and with a different cover art, across Europe, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand from October 1988 to early 1989. It is Miami Sound Machine's most commercially successful album, being certified triple-platinum by the RIAA and peaking at number six on the Billboard 200.
