REISSUE:  “Never Can Say Goodbye” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Sonia and Nancy

“Never Can Say Goodbye” is a classic soul song originally recorded by The Jackson Five in 1971 and released on their “Maybe Tomorrow”. The song has since been covered by many artists and groups – in the disco realm more notably by Gloria Gaynor in the 70s and The Communards in the 80’s. High energy music brought a synth-pop version in 1986 and produced by high-energy extraordinaire, Mr. Fonny De Wulf who sprinkled the 80’s with the sound of this new sensational dance floor recipe. Sonia and Nancy recorded this single as their one and only release which made many playlist for jocks who were spinning to the crowds who could not get enough of the rolling energy. The production by De Wulf is the flowing feel of the song of heartbreak along with more percussion and synthesizers.

I have taken the 12” version of Sonia and Nancy’s “Never Can Say Goodbye” and used pieces of the deep hardcore elements to recreate this ReStructure Mix. It pays homage to this sound of the 80’s which kept many dancing throughout the period and even today.
