"Erucu" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Jermaine JacksonJermaine Jackson began his solo career away from The Jackson 5 in 1972 - since his guitar talents were on his side it was not long till this lead him to a solo instrumental hit. The soundtrack to Motown's production of "Mahogany" starring Diana Ross in 1975 was his opportunity.
The compilation included his close to 3 minute instrumental track "Erucu" which is used in a segment of the film where "success" becomes a bit overwhelming for our heroine. The track also made it's way into many clubs thanks to it's funky rhythm guitars and ominous percussion tracks. It was sheer Billy Preston dance heaven.
I have ReStructured the track by my own means of creating a longer mix with an easy mix-in and mix-out point and looping some of the memorable rhythm segments. I have also added a few voice samples from the film to give it more personality.
