REISSUE: “It’s A Love Thing” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Whispers


The Whispers are a soul group that was formed in 1964 and recorded up to 2000. Their harmonies and soulful vocal arrangements are the real advantage of the ensemble and although time has moved and given their music a new sound the essence are The Whispers themselves. “Imagination” is their album from 1980 produced by Dick Griffey and The Whispers. “It’s A Love Thing” is the funk touch of tight early 80’s dance grooves. It is the old school that stands out among the class as most of the music from Solar Records has. It is a love song that brings out the men in a wonderful serenade that reaches peak after peak and even throughout the verses gives them an opportunity to prove why their lasting is evident.

I have taken the 12” version of “It’s A Love Thing” and reworked an edit for this ReStructure Mix which moves the original vocal into a dub mix. Pieces of the electronic groove are dissected and rearranged to bring new life into this old school classic.
