Karen Silver is a disco artist who was produced by Gino Soccio and John Driscoll on her first big hit - a cover of Sam and Dave’s r&b classic “Hold On I’m Coming”. It was released in 1979 and made dance floors ignite with the heavy bass drums and the jittery sequencers pounding out the song in a whole new way. “Clean Up Woman” is Karen’s cover of Betty Wright’s soul hit from 1972 - produced by Gino Soccio and released in 1982. The electronic cover done with Soccio’s touches igniting it into a disco vehicle is one of Karen’s sought after covers of the time.
I have taken the 12” version of Karen’s cover of “Clean Up Woman” and laid out the funky guitars and horns in a new way for this ReStructure Mix. I have added a new foundation on segments of this remix to pound out more of the dedication from Karen’s vocals.
