REISSUE: "Instant Love" by Sylvia Love - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Sylvia Love released her disco track, "Instant Love" in 1979 - produced by Trevor Vallis. Formulated in the D.D. Jackson "Automatic Lover" vein and using similar sequencers to Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" the track became more of an underground sensation.

In the early 80's many of after-hours dance clubs with jocks assembling music that was fitting for dancing before the sun came up were placing this one on rotation. As the years have passed and much of the electronic influence in dance music has and continues to progress it is always interesting to look back at the pioneers who steered us in this direction.

"Queen Of Outer Space" is one of the campiest science fiction takes in 1958 - starring Zsa Zsa Gabor and Eric Fleming leading the adventure. The story line is simple - the planet "Venus" (the planet of love) has kept men away until this a spaceship of 3 eligible bachelors convinces then that a waste of beauty is no good.

This video mix salutes the "Cult Camp Classic" films and also the same sound in disco music, which follows along the outlines.

REISSUE: "Cocoon" by Timerider - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

The 1985 sci-fi adventure film "Cocoon" - Directed by Ron Howard is blended here with the Italo-disco track "Cocoon" by Timerider.

The 12" disco single "Cocoon" is produced by Tess who is also know for his work with Fancy - this instrumental is a fine arrangement of keyboards and sequencer tracks. It is as close to a John Williams disco-esque track you may here with the funky electronics of disco music tossed in.

The film stars Don Ameche (won Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role), Wilford Brimley, Hume Cronyn and Steve Guttenberg.

“J'ai Deux Amours (Two Loves Have I)” by Phylicia Allen – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Phylicia Allen creates a disco-fied tribute to the great, Josephine Baker, an American singer-dancer who is noted for her wonderful contributions to the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. Allen works with disco producers Jacques Morali and Henry Belolo (Village People, The Ritchie Family) and gives two medleys outlining the climb and success of Ms. Baker.

Disco music of the late 70s began to work as themes for great films, events and times in history which gives it a lasting luster with its full band and sometimes orchestrated productions. This project is a wonderful example of that genre.

I have taken the 1991 television film “The Josephine Baker Story” and used several of the fabulous sequences starring Lynn Whitfield – who gives a command performance as Josephine Baker.

The film was directed by Brian Gibson

REISSUE: "I Love New York" by Metropolis - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

One of Salsoul Records biggest treats during the disco era was Metropolis - a Tom Moulton production along with Thor Baldursson on arrangements. This being a Munich Land Studios (Munich) and Sigma Sound Studios (Philly, USA) collaboration, with very favorable results.

"I Love NY" is a single form the project which was used in the revitalize New York ads in the late 70's - a great orchestrated and upbeat track. One of those numbers, which makes the soul, feel alive.

I have taken the 1981 film "Arthur" starring Dudley Moore and Liza Minelli into the Disco Video arena along with Metropolis - and although the film did not feature much of the magnificent city I did add a few wonderful images to pace it all along with the fun and excitement of the story.

This Disco Video Mix is dedicated to Mr. Tom Moulton and Mr. Thor Baldursson in appreciation for their talents

REISSUE: “Love Is In The Air” by John Paul Young – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

John Paul Young marked the end of the 70s with an anthem that continues to bring smiles and warmth to hearts and dance floors everywhere. The track was released in 1977 and became one of the contemporary disco songs of the time.

I have taken the 1955 film “Summertime” starring Katherine Hepburn and Rossano Brazzi and blended the romance in Venice, Italy with the magic of this disco classic.

REISSUE: “Summer Fever” by Donna Summer – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Donna Summer released her third US LP titled “Four Seasons Of Love” in 1976 – produced by Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte. This project gave Donna another chapter exploring the sensual sound of disco music during its experimental stages. It was a great success for both Donna and disco music.

I have taken the track “Summer Fever” and used it for a Disco Video Mix along with the Marilyn Monroe iconic film “Seven Year Itch” from 1955 – the film was a comedy and utilized Marilyn’s sexy image and persona to portray a fantasy within the mind of our questioning husband, Tom Ewell.

Donna Summer actually used the famous subway scene for the back of her “Four Seasons Of Love” LP cover which gave me the idea to combine the two in a dreamlike video.

The film was directed by Billy Wilder

REISSUE: "Dance Fantasy" By Free Life - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

One of the most incredible records in 1979 on the disco circuit was "Dance Fantasy" by Free Life - produced by Carl Warlwell, Philip Bailey (of Earth, Wind and Fire) and Tommy Vicari.

A powerhouse dance number with a pulsating intro that bursts into energy and excitement and also a break that sends bongos into the air. This one was quite popular in clubs all over but did not have the proper stand to create a band identity. However, it still works and does best as an underground hit.

My concept in taking the 1979 film, "All That Jazz" by Bob Fosse and syncing the energy and theme were based on the concept that a love for music and dancing is deeper in the soul than one may think. The film may have been a bit strange in that most of it takes place in a fantasy - this is the connection.

"All That Jazz" stars Roy Scheider and Jessica Lange

REISSUE: “Invasion” by Patrick Cowley - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Patrick Cowley has left a legacy of electronic music that moves us far beyond it’s meaning since there is so much mystery to his own talent. It is known that Patrick worked on many projects during the late 70’s infusing his own version of keyboards and sequencers to elevate dance music even more so. It was hits by disco star, Sylvester like “Dance (Disco Heat)” and “Stars” that moved him into the early 80’s with his own trademark sound.

“Technological World” is Patrick Cowley’s final project before he was taken from us by AIDS - it was a tragedy in that Patrick had only begun to inject his sound. There could have been so much more. “Invasion” is the second track on the LP which uses a science fiction theme to move the landscape of bustling keyboards and bass sequencers along.

I have taken the 1956 science fiction film, “Earth vs. The Flying Saucers” to fill in the soundtrack and give Patrick’s disco track some vivid life. The film was directed by Fred F. Sears and is one of the best Saturday matinee sci-fi flicks to date.

REISSUE: "From East To West" by Voyage - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

The 1977 LP "Voyage" by Voyage marks a place in disco history that is hard to forget. It is a time where Euro-disco painted strong images and feelings for a dance floor waiting to be taken away to a fantasy world. The title track "From East To West" is a classic and leaves the imagination feeling unlimited - as well as the dance floor ready for more.

The project was produced by Roger Tokarz and features musicians Marc Chantereau, Pierre Alain Dahan and Slim Pezin as well as many backup ensembles from Cerrone and Munich disco recording sessions.

I have taken the 1956 adventure film, "Around The World In 80 Days" based on the Jules Verne's novel and placed scenes and images in this Disco Video Mix. The scenic quality works quite well and leaves little wonder on how this song by Voyage has become a classic piece for disco lovers all over the world.

REISSUE: "Singin' In The Rain" by Sheila and B. Devotion - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Sheila and B. Devotion are a group formed in France in 1977. Sheila (Annie Chancel) is the front of this ensemble and brings her sweet vocals to many of their disco projects.

"Singin' in The Rain" is an album produced by Claude Carrere, which features a disco production of the Gene Kelly musical-film number - done funky and sweet. The track did quite well in discothèques and brought to mind once again that disco music was carefree and unlimited.

I have created a Disco Video Mix using the 1952 film. "Singin' In The Rain" starring Gene Kelly, Donald O' Connor and Debbie Reynolds. The scenes and images work right along with the disco version quite well and remind how fun and fabulous age of the big musical was!

The film was directed by Stanley Donen

“Fly, Robin, Fly” by Silver Convention – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Silver Convention helped to introduce the right ingredients for disco music in 1974 with “Save Me” – a studio project from German producers, Michael Kunze and Sylvester Levay. The infection bass and strings became the pop sound which, not only captivated dance floors – it also influenced new style music to become a phenomena.

“Fly, Robin, Fly” is not doubt one of Silver Convention’s most recognizable tracks. I have taken the classic and formed a cross between sci-fi camp and the essence of disco. The 1956 monster epic “Rodan” is used as the “candy” in this crazy Disco Video Mix. The Japanese film was another piece of the filmmaking from Toho Films and made fantasy come to life for adventurous viewers. The giant pterodactyl wreaks havoc on Japan as the disco dolls can almost be heard singing, “Fly, Rodan, Fly”!

Soul Of Fame: "Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever" (1983) - Part 12 of 13

Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever is a 1983 television special produced by Suzanne de Passe for Motown Records, to commemorate Motown's twenty-fifth year of existence. (Motown was founded in January 1959, meaning that a twenty-fifth anniversary special should have aired in 1984, not 1983. One could argue that Gordy's vision of what would become "Hitsville U.S.A." was conceived in 1958, considering the month of Motown's founding.) The show was also co-written by de Passe along with Ruth Adkins Robinson who would go on to write shows with de Passe for the next 25 years, including the follow-up label tributes—through "Motown 40," Buz Kohan was the head writer of the threesome. The program was taped before a live studio audience at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium in Pasadena, California on March 25, 1983,[1] and broadcast on NBC on May 16. Among its highlights were Michael Jackson's performance of "Billie Jean", a Temptations/Four Tops "battle of the bands", Marvin Gaye's inspired speech about black music history and his memorable performance of "What's Going On", a Jackson 5 reunion, and an abbreviated reunion of Diana Ross & the Supremes, who performed their final #1 hit, "Someday We'll Be Together" from 1969.

REISSUE: "Over The Rainbow" by Abbe - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Abbe Lane recorded her disco LP "Rainbows" in 1980 - produced by Norman B. Ratner (of Butterfly Records) and spotlights the singer/actress of the 1950's. This project contained a big disco hit, "You Make It Hard To Love" as well as several of Abbe's take on a few familiar remakes.

"Over The Rainbow" is her disco arrangement on the Judy Garland classic from the film "The Wizard Of Oz". It is truly Las Vegas camp. I have taken the album version and blended the two with several images and scenes from the all-time classic film and this disco cut. It makes Dorothy seem a bit more hip and her three friends more like chaperones.
