REISSUE: “Leave That Boy Alone” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Poussez!

 


Poussez! Is a disco project from producer Alphonse Mouzon and contributed to the 1979 dance phenomenon. The project titled “Poussez!” contained not only 4 tracks which all make the classic disco lists but also the vocalist who made it all happen – Ms. Christine Wiltshire (Musique, Center Stage, Phreek, Class Action, Aural Exciters). The vocal delivery on the initial album is the essence of Poussez! The single “Leave That Boy Alone” is from their second album released in 1980 and minus Ms. Wiltshire features Connie Harvey and Janet Wright. The production is less chic disco and more into the electronic 80’s disco camp. The sound is more camp edged and falsetto. The anticipation of the project is what maintains it as a remembered moment in disco history.

I have taken the 12” version of “Leave That Boy Alone” and reweaved a new ReStructure Mix and bring back Ms. Wiltshire in a cameo. The outline had a bit more of a dub conciseness and more play with the concept of the song.
