REISSUE: “Nowhere To Run” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Paradise Express





REISSUE: “Nowhere To Run” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Paradise Express Paradise Express is Herb Jimmerson and Vi Ann. Their first big dance floor hit from 1978 was a cover of Paul Jabara’s “Dance” and created a fascination with Herb’s amazing keyboard work and Vi Ann’s fantastic vocals. It was a blend that disco music had waited for during the last years of the era. “Nowhere To Run” is from their second project titled “Let’s Fly” and is a cover of Martha and The Vandella’s Motown classic. This interpretation is one that brings the electronic arrangement into a realm of deep underground gratification. It gives off the essence of a Patrick Cowley Mega-mix that was a sound that exploded in the early 80s. A nice dream-like edge is one that gives the classic a new stage, I have taken the album version of “Nowhere To Run” and worked the synthesizer and keyboards again as if it were 3 AM on a dance floor that is sliding into an afterhour’s mode. There are more of the keyboards that created that feeling of another dimension taking over the senses and a lengthy exit to bring it to a close.
