"You Made Me Believe In Magic" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Bay City Rollers70's boy band, Bay City Rollers is Alan Longmuir, Leslie Richard McKeown, Eric Faulkner, Derek Longmuir and Stuart 'Woody' Wood
Their big hit "Saturday Night" from 1975 made them a pop phenomena among young girls and the earliest signs of "boogie music" on AM radio. Their 1977 LP "It's A Game" contained the single "You Made Me Believe In Magic" - which has the essence of early morning disco music and much more.
The track is much like a David Cassidy love ballad - but with swirling strings and bongo driven verses that are all that early morning disco are made of.
I thank Franklin Fuentes from New York for turning me onto this missed little gem - it was produced by Harry Maslin.
My ReStructure Mix extends the original 2:41 single track to a near 8 minute dance cut - adding a new intro, percussion and some looping. It is a wonderful experience to hear those strings and pop-boy- vocals!
