About Cuba

"Cuba" is a 1978 song by the Gibson Brothers taken from their album of the same name. It was the group's first charting single: In the US, "Cuba", went to #81 on the US Hot 100, and #9 on the US Dance chart. Outside the US, upon its original release, it reached number 41 in the UK, however, following the success of their follow-up top 10 hit songs "Ooh, What a Life" and "Que Sera Mi Vida (If You Should Go)", it was re-released in 1980 where it reached number 12 in the UK with "Better Do It Salsa".

However, its chart performance did not improve in the U.S. due in large part to the anti Disco Backlash in the States at the time.
