Disco star Andrea True, whose biggest hit was More More More (How Do You Like It?), has died aged 68.
The singer began her career as an actress in pornographic films, shortening her name from Andrea Truden for the sake of her family.
More More More, a top five hit in the UK, was recorded in Jamaica, where True had been filming a commercial in 1975.
It came about almost by accident, after True was forbidden to leave the country with the earnings from her day job.
True spent the money to flesh out a song she had made up, pairing a hazy piano-based instrumental with girly, breathless vocals.
She took the demo back to New York, where it was remixed by Tom Moulton and released as a single, credited to the Andrea True Connection.
Reaching number four in the US, the single has been called "one of the truly classic club hits of its time" by Billboard magazine.
How Do You Like It....How Do You Like It..
