REISSUE “Op Oop Op Oop" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Esther Phillips





REISSUE “Op Oop Op Oop" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Esther Phillips Little Esther (alias Esther Phillips) is the queen of blues and soul. Her move to disco music in the late 70s was a treat to dance floors and now music history. The 1979 LP "Here's Esther...Are You Ready" produced by Harvey Mason is a gem. The project contained a disco version of the standard "Our Day Will Come", a dance version of Elton John's "Philadelphia Freedom" and the disco-mover, "Op Oop Op Oop" - transforming the disco chant into a diva standard! I have taken the 12" version of this smokin' track and transformed it into a ReStructure movement with lots of loops and rearranging to make you wonder where your feet will move next. A great fun time was had by my mind and soul on this one. Special thanks and dedicated to Lindsay and Nick - you magic men! You make the music feel deeper and more exciting than ever!
