The album has never been released in Italy, but has been included in the artist's Italian discography because many of the songs included were also recorded in Italian. In Greece a version was distributed with almost all the tracks in Italian, but with the B side lacking the last song, similarly in Portugal, where the title of the album has also been translated: "Mamma dammi 100 lire".[2]
Compared to the previous albums, the disc marks a turning point in the abandonment of Eurodisco sounds in favor of a more rock and new wave sound, as in "Caliente caliente" and "Amore amore", without losing sight of the singer's typical Latin style.[3][4]
In Argentina the album was released with an extra track "Yo soy tana", not included in any other version.[5]
Overview
The album was distributed in Mexico, Peru, Argentina, Venezuela, Uruguay, Chile and Ecuador, with the first track titled "Mamá Dame 100 Pesitos". In Spain, Guatemala and Bolivia the title has become "Mamá Dame 100 Pesetas". The Colombian version of the album has a different track layout.[6]
14 singles were extracted from the album (none for the Italian market), eleven 7" and three maxi 12", distributed between 1981 and 1982.
