ReStructure Mix Update (9/28/15) “Get Out Your Handkerchief” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Ashford and Simpson


ReStructure Mix Update (9/28/15) “Get Out Your Handkerchief” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Ashford and Simpson

Ashford and Simpson are truly a gift to soul, R&B and disco music. Their contributions are some of the anthems which make music a special place – always full of love and emotion. Their 1980 album “A Musical Affair” contained the single “Get Out Your Handkerchief” which was a track which always made it on my early morning or early evening playlists. A song telling the heartache of a love gone wrong and the after math of keeping a sane view on what has passed. It is one of my favorites of the masterful duo.

I have taken the album version to create this ReStructure Mix which plays with the looping choruses and ad-libbed verses to give this a whole new extended version a bang. It adds some percussion to beef up the moody feel of the song and a new ‘storm’ of energy.

I just LOOOOOOOVE this song. It has been one of my favorites for years. I love everything about it, the beat and those clever lyrics that only Ashford & Simpson could come up with. You can either get up and dance to it or just sit back and listen to the story unfold.
Thank you for giving it your special touch. What a treat !!!
