Gino Soccio is a Canadian disco producer born in 1955 in Montreal. His only US Hot 100 entry was the #48 "Dancer" in 1979, but he did hit #1 on the US Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart twice ("Dancer" / "Dance to Dance" in 1979 and "Try It Out" / "Hold Tight" in 1981, six weeks each). "Turn it around" was released as a single-only in 1984.
In the UK he received airplay from Robbie Vincent on Radio London and Greg Edwards on Capital Radio.
He also assembled and produced the disco studio group Witch Queen, best known for their Top 10 dance hit "Bang A Gong" / "All Right Now" in 1979.
