REISSUE: “Behind The Groove” by Teena Marie – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera





REISSUE: “Behind The Groove” by Teena Marie – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Teena Marie (Mary Christine Brockert) is better known as Lady T – a R&B artists who brought a new style and edge to soul and disco music in the late 70s. Her music was poetic and a very powerful inspiration to the soul. Her second album in 1980 titled “Lady T” contained the dance single “Behind The Groove” which I have taken into the Disco Video Mix arena thanks to an ideal from Ken Emmons.

The 1980 musical “Xanadu” starring Olivia Newton John, Gene Kelly and Michael Beck is the visual in this project – the big dance segments lend some energy and mystique to the mythical land of Xanadu. The film is a campy piece of 80s dance that always makes the magic of disco and the era come alive again.

The film was directed by Robert Greenwald
