REISSUE: “I Need Somebody To Love Tonight" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Sylvester





REISSUE: “I Need Somebody To Love Tonight" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Sylvester

Sylvester not only changed the sound of disco music in 1977 with his first self-titled album – but also the face of the genre. His unique still and stage presence was immediately a challenge for anyone to keep still or become memorized by his performance. The heat of the disco fever his album “Stars” was released – produced by Harvey Fuqua and Sylvester himself – this was four track title wave of disco music. The title track in an anthem long before the dance floor expected them. His cover of "I (Who Have Nothing)” is a gem – “Body Strong” is a mid-tempo workout – and the finale cut “I Need Somebody To Love Tonight” is a low-BPM sleaze track with Patrick Cowley penning and performing the slick synthesizers and mood.

I have taken the album track and have given it a new ReStructure Mix to remedy more for that late night desire that is given here in a jazz-scat vocal performance. It is a moody and phenomenal stamp from Sylvester who once again – even though he has left us always brings to mind innovation and awe.
