This section includes the discography for the band Miami Sound Machine, led by Emilio Estefan Jr. and Gloria Estefan.

The band formed in 1977 and released a total of ten studio albums, one compilation and two remix EPs. The first seven studio albums released by the group were entirely in Spanish. Their first English-language release was their 1984 album, Eyes Of Innocence which featured the European hit "Dr. Beat". Success in the United States came the following year with the release of the single "Conga", taken from the album Primitive Love which has since been certified Triple Platinum in the US.

By 1987, the group were now credited as Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine for the album Let It Loose (known in Europe as Anything For You). The album became the band's biggest seller, though no further releases were credited to Miami Sound Machine from 1989 onwards when Estefan effectively became a solo artist (though the band were credited on the inner cover of her 1989 album Cuts Both Ways). From the 1990s, members of the group continued to be credited individually as session musicians on Estefan's albums, though Miami Sound Machine continue to be her backing band during live performances.
