ReStructure Mix Update (5/31/20) “No Credit Card” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Amanda Lear

Amanda Lear is one of the unique disco acts from the mid-70’s whose contributions include a journey into the disco-opera of Faust  In 1984 her single “No Credit Cards” was released and fit into the club high energy scene and was an outline again for Amanda’s vocal phrasing and style. The production by Roberto Gasparini (Alba, Valerie Dore) is a fast moving tale of a woman who was raised in the jungle finds herself in civilization with “no credit card” to purchase the diamonds she absconded. A bit of light hearted laughter in Amanda’s own delivery. The piece reminds me of a Bobby Orlando track with the percussion and rolling bass lines.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental of “No Credit Card” and replaced the very awkward situation in a new ReStructure Mix. A new percussion riff guides the adventure into a new form.
