A masterpiece of 90s house music, featuring memorable organ riffs and the vocals of "La-Da-Dee."
Crystal Waters' debut album, produced by house music production team The Basement Boys, features the global hit "Gypsy Woman."
This debut album is a symbol of the house music scene of the early '90s. It features "Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless)," which reached No. 8 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and No. 2 on the UK charts. Featuring a memorable bassline, organ riff, and scat singing "la-da-dee, la-da-da," the song became a global club hit. The follow-up single, "Makin' Happy," also reached No. 1 on the US dance charts. The album as a whole fuses solid beats directly descended from Chicago house with soulful melodies. This is a seminal work that crossed over the realms of dance music and pop.
