REISSUE:“Bewitched” by Polly Brown – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera





REISSUE:“Bewitched” by Polly Brown – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera Polly Brown is a singer from Birmingham, England who began recording in 1975 with her first LP “Special Delivery” – produced by Gerry Shury and Phillip Swern. Her single, “Up In A Puff Of Smoke” made it to #16 in the US charts. Her 1980 single “Bewitched” – which is a cover of a show tune from the 1940 Rogers and Hart musical, Pal Joey was a minor disco hit. At the time, I admired the return a pure disco arrangement – it is still one of my favorites! I have taken the 12” of the track and blended it appropriately with the 2005 film “Bewitched” starring Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell – the film is a comedy-romance story based on the 60s television show, “Bewitched” – with some reality adjusting. It flows along with Polly’s sultry and lovely vocal which always reminded me of a Diana Ross-esque sound. The film was directed by Nora Ephron Featuring scenes from “Bewitched” – RENT THE DVD!
