"Oh, People" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Patti LaBelle

"Oh, People" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Patti LaBelle

Patti LaBelle needs no introduction - once the voice begins to emanate a stand is taken and a deeper soul is released. Her contribution to soul and disco music are the proof of talent and heart.

One memory that always haunts my mind is 6 AM at The Probe (in Hollywood, CA), 1986 - DJ Lance Wise is spinning his extended remix of Patti's "Oh, People" and a crowded dance flow is swaying to the mesmerizing song and some holding and embracing each other in love. This is the meaning of the dance floor when disco music is playing - not just partying and fun - but love and unity.

I have taken the 12" version of "Oh, People" and have given it a ReStructure Mix for this purpose - there is only so much time we each have - touching those we care and love is what it's all about.

Dedicated to Jurgen L. - thank you for requesting and bringing this one to life! and for your support.
