REISSUE: "Paradise Island" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - The Wonderland Band

 


One of the last big disco productions - The Wonderland Band is a campy studio session with the theme of super-heroes. With Wonder Woman and Superman included. But, the production gives off the serious end of the full and satisfying disco sound.

"Paradise Island" is another track from the album that explores a make-believe place where love and happiness grown and mystery and intrigue are alive. This is the perfect disco fantasy and rightfully so. The flashing lights and and freedom on the floor are endless if you understand and let yourself go.

I have ReStructured the 12" remix into a new atmosphere keeping in mind that this song soars several times into a place where the dance floor can take advantage of. It has a bit more breakdowns and slices the long drum break into segments.

This production was by Morrie Brown and features lead vocals by Deedee Dennard and backing by Clydene Jackson, Julia Waters and Maxine Waters.
