"Soul" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Frankie Valli

"Soul" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Frankie Valli
Frankie Valli began a recording career 1967 and became an American icon in pop music. His move into the disco arena came in 1976 with his album, "Fallen Angel" - it was the luck of the dance floor to have a voice as Valli's to grace the rhythmic beats of disco. His 1980 LP "Heaven Above Me" featured two disco hits, "Soul" and "Heaven Above Me" - it was time when disco music in the US was changing and yet this production brought it back to life once again.

I have taken the album version of "Soul" produced by by Bob Gaudio and featuring Gene Page on horns and strings and the incredible Greg Mathieson on rhythm arrangement. I have created a new ReStructure Mix which extends the conga and percussion elements and also the beautiful lush strings segments.

A big disco hit during the early 80s can be remembered again!
