Lesley Gore's hit 'Maybe I Know' is here covered by Peruvian singer Monik in 1973, resulting a superb -and probably superior to the original- take on the song, somewhere between pop and northern soul. The EP is completed with the remaining recordings released by the artist, echoing the classic pop sounds of the 60s. 

Discos Mag was one of the most important Peruvian labels of the 60s. It was owned and directed by Manuel Antonio Guerrero who would also put together bands and get involved in the recording sessions. His son Carlos Guerrero also followed the music path and so did his daughter Monica "Monik" Guerrero. 

Members of the bands We All Together and Traffic Sound would take part in the recording sessions at Mag studios in 1972, when Monik managed to record a few songs that would eventually release as a 7" single on his father's label. She would return into the studio one year later and record two more songs: 'Maybe I Know' - first brought to fame by Lesley Gore in 1964- and 'Forgiveness' an original song composed by Ernesto and Felix of We All Together. This EP comprises Monik's complete discography and get s a vinyl reissue for the first time.
