"Score" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Carol Lloyd

"Score" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Carol Lloyd

Carol Lloyd is a disco artist produced by Bruce Weeden - a songwriter, engineer and guitar player who worked along side Boris Midney on the USA European Connection ("Come Into My Heart/Good Loving") album and also the similar claim-to-the-dance floor group, Ultimate - where most of the studio players take part in both studio projects. Carol is a fierce singer and brings to mind a sassy Melissa Manchester of sorts when you hear the soul and heart of her delivery.

"Score" is from the LP by the same name and features the dreamy sound that Weeden and arranger, Mike Forte created with Juliano Salerni with Ultimate - as a matter a fact the back-up vocalist on this project are the trio from USA European Connection's first two projects. Also featured this album are Marc Paul Simon and iconic percussion by Larry Washington.

I have taken the 12" version of "Score" and recreated a "pep-rally" ReStructure Mix using parts of the song which give it lasting sound both on the dance floor and a toe tapping audio experience. Adding some words of wisdom from a friend at the tail end.

This ReStructure Mix was requested from Nick and Lindsay and is dedicated to their love of great dance music - which keeps me motivated!

Glenn, meant to ask - what is that vocal sample added in at the end?

The sample is from Madonna's new single, "Give Me All Your Love" - "Don't play that stupid game..."- they both are cheerleading themes so I thought it was appropriate :)
