 NEW YORK (Top40 Charts/ Sony International) - SONY BMG Music Entertainment and Burgundy Records announce the release of Gloria Estefan's new Spanish-language album, 90 Millas in stores September 18, 2007. Having sold over 70 million albums and recorded 24 albums, 90 Millas brings Gloria back to where it all began her roots. Produced by her husband, Emilio Estefan, the collection of newly recorded original Spanish language songs pays tribute to the roots of Cuban music while infusing a modern influence into the traditional rhythms. The album also pays homage to the most influential and universally respected Latin musicians of the past fifty years. Some of the artists joining Estefan on this album include Grammy award winning artist Carlos Santana, Johnny Pacheco (whom many refer to as the godfather of salsa), trumpet virtuoso Alfredo 'Chocolate' Armenteros, conga drum diva Sheila E., actor and musician Andy Garcia, and Cachao who is credited as the creator of mambo. This blend of musicians on 90 Millas is historically significant on a number of levels. This is the first, and quite possibly the last time that all of these legendary artists will play together on one CD. The newly released first single, 'No Llores' features guest performances by famed Latin musicians Carlos Santana, Sheila E. and Jose Feliciano; just one of the incredible collaborations found on this CD.
