Sincerely Yours is the fifth studio album by Dutch girl group Luv', released in 1991 by the labels RCA Records/BMG. It includes the singles Hasta Mañana, Jungle Jive, He's My Guy (a minor hit song) and The Last Song. This opus features a new group's member Carina Lemoine who replaced Michelle Gold.

Background

June 1990 saw changes in Luv's line-up. Michelle Gold was replaced by Carina Lemoine, a 20-year-old singer who had

been recruited among a hundred girls by Marga Scheide (the only original group's member).^[1] This change in the trio's formation coincided with a new record deal. Luv' signed a contract with the Dutch subsidiary of RCA Records/BMG and chose another kind of repertoire. After the moderate success of the Welcome to my party single (inspired by the Stock Aitken Waterman style and produced by Nigel Wright), the female pop act recorded Sincerely Yours named after a cover version of a US Top 20 song originally performed by the American Dance girl group Sweet Sensation.^[2] This material was produced by Jacques Zwart (a.k.a. E.Mergency), Marga Scheide's partner at the time.

Session musicians from the Dutch music scene were hired for the recording of this album: Bert Meulendijk, Eddie Conard, Hans Jansen Lex Bolderdijk, Omar Dupree and Ton op 't Hof. They had collaborated with artists like Bolland & Bolland, Paul de Leeuw, Gordon, Lee Towers, Herman Brood, and Dolly Dots. Despite their participation, the Sincerely Yours record failed to make any chart impact. However, though Luv' hadn't reached a mainstream success with this recording, their schedule was hectic. They often toured the club circuit in the Netherlands and Belgium and appeared on TV.
