"Shine On Silver Moon" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr.



• "Shine On Silver Moon" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr.

Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr. were apart of the mid-60's sensation vocal ensemble, The Fifth Dimension - winning best song in 1967 for "Up-Up And Away" - the band was founded by Davis.

In 1976 the duo recorded a big hit titled, "You Don't Have To Be A Star" and continued to bring them success. At the peak of the disco boom and formation of it's finale outline in 1978 a single titled, "Shine On Silver Moon" - the song was a beautiful love song with every element of touch disco dancing intact.

Produced by Billy Davis Jr. and Steve Cropper (The Blues Brothers, Booker T and The MGs) and co-written by Gary Knight who produced Sarah Dash's "Sinner Man" LP.

"Shine On Silver Moon" was beautifully mixed by John Luongo and the wonderful percussion tracks were performed by Jimmy Maelen. I have ReStructured the track to give the song an alternative mix and also bring forth more of that rippling percussion.
