Vera is a Patti Masi who brought the mystique of disco music alive in the early 80s. Her big club hit “Take Me To The Bridge” from 1981 –produced by Louis Toteda was one the most talked about release in dance circles. It was also my cure for my own desire to hear a beautiful disco arrangement brought up to date at the time. Following this single a flood gate of hits followed bringing Vera a stand on dance floors everywhere. “Baby, Won’t You Dance With Me” is from 1983 and Vera’s album titled “Joey” which became the resource for this ladies beautiful vocal and connection to dance floors.
I have taken the vocal and instrumental of the original Canadian 12” release of “Baby, Won’t You Dance With Me” to work a ReStructure Mix with a non-stop energy injected into the already moving dance arrangement. Using the beautiful sound of the chorus as the outline for more of this incredible stomper which has always been a big hit for my dance floors and me.
This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Patti Masi (Vera) who will always bring to my mind a wonderful period of rediscovery for lovely dance tracks and haunting performances – and to Louis Toteda for being an incredible producer, writer and musician.
