Tropico

Tropico is American rock singer Pat Benatar's fifth studio album, and sixth album overall, released in 1984. It peaked at #14 on the U.S. Billboard album chart and produced the Grammy-nominated #5 Pop hit "We Belong". Additional well-known songs from the album were "Painted Desert", "Outlaw Blues" and "Ooh Ooh Song" (also a Top-40 hit), a Spanish version of which appeared on her 1999 compilation, Synchronistic Wanderings. The album was Benatar's sixth consecutive Platinum-certified album in the United States. During the filming of the video for the single "Painted Desert", Benatar and husband Neil Giraldo discovered they were expecting their first child. It is also said by Benatar and Giraldo that this album is the first where they moved away from Benatar's famed "hard rock" sound and start experimenting with new, sometimes "gentler," styles and sounds. This is the first album featuring Donnie Vossov replacing Roger Capps on bass. This album is now out of print.
