REISSUE: "Do You Want The Real Thing" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - D.C. LaRue





REISSUE: "Do You Want The Real Thing" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - D.C. LaRue

D.C. LaRue is an innovative and unique disco artist from a period of dance history which marked the minds and fantasies of club goers around the world. His music helped to move the dance floor into a new stage of imagination and shape the sound of disco music that even today is worshiped and adored.

"Do You Want The Real Thing" is a single released in 1978 in the big disco soundtrack, "Thank God It's Friday". The production of this single by Bob Esty rings a mysterious and tribal-like feel. It is one of the most perfect sleaze tracks from the time period.

I have taken the 12" extended version of "Do You Want The Real Thing" and decided to take the track even deeper into the fantasy - with a few guest spots and jungle drums to add a layer of excitement to the teasing flare.

Dedicated to the incredible team of disco pioneers and my earliest influences of disco music: Bob Esty and Mr. D.C. LaRue - thank you boys...it will go on forever!
