"What's On Your Mind" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Jean Carn

"What's On Your Mind" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Jean Carn

One of the last of the true Philly disco tracks in the late 70's is Jean Carn's 12" single of "Was That All It Was"/"What's On Your Mind" - the essence of emotion, love and beauty with a dance beat.

"What's On Your Mind" is the flip side that was equally a classic as "Was That All It Was" continues to be. Due to the direct vocal and beat on the mix it was more difficult to mix into a set without dropping in. This ReStructure Mix gives a new option for play.

I have taken the sweeping strings and Jean';s fabulous vocal performance and created a new arrangement with a new breaks.

This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Sergio F. of "Go Bang" - for keeping the beat in the club and also reminding me of this wonderful song.

Wow! Thanks for bringing this often overlooked B-side gem back to life - it's equally as good as the better known Was That All It Was, and your mixes of both are fantastic! Nick & Lindsay

I have always loved the B-side just as much as the A. Had to work with 2 12" singles back in early 80's to play this one without dropping in from a cold end - and it was always worth it on those T-Dance Sundays or early evening mood music.

Thank you so much for all of your kind words - gives me lots of inspiration and good energy :)
