“REISSUE: Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Tapps

 

“REISSUE: Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Tapps Tapps is a high energy disco group featuring Allan Coelho, Candy Berthiaume and Tony DaCosta. A big smash in the early, mid and late 80’s with their high energy hits “My Forbidden Lover”, “Runaway (With My Love)”, “Hurricane” and “Don’t Pretend To Know”. It was shift during the early 80’s to a full electronic arrangement with lots of keyboard magic weaving a rhythmic sound into a dancing force. Tapps had the female lead that presented that sweet and yearning that disco music created with the disco diva at bay. “Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch” is their high energy cover of The Four Tops 1965 hit and it is a rolling tribute with a nice power and execution. For the high energy dance floor this one is quite a cooker. A reminder of the power of dance music when presented in its full flavor. I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental of Tapps’ “Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch” and reworked a ReStructure Mix to give way to some new energy. The new intro and breaks are an addition to the existing classic edge.
