ReStructure Mix Update (11/18/22): “Livin’ It Up (Friday Night)” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bell and James


Leroy M. Bell and Casey James are a duo who released three projects. Their debut album featured a single which became a dance floor hit the instant it was laid down – “Livin’ It Up (Friday Night)” from 1978 is one of the iconic songs of the disco era. The production is the stripped down funky arrangements which made the pop-edge of disco music irresistible. This one has the vocals that also resonate of the 70s male figure in disco and funk. The two also are credited for writing the disco hit “This Time Baby” recorded by Jackie Moore in 1979.

I have taken the 12” version of “Livin’ It Up (Friday Night)” and gave it some new petroleum to pump it into an anthem like ReStructure Mix. Using the grooves and fantastic keyboard riffs I have realigned the song for a whole new area of the dance floor.
