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

Featuring scenes from "Arthur" - RENT THE DVD!

  3. You know, Joey - I have never been to NY - Ken keeps telling me we need to vacation there - he loves NY. Can you snap a few pictures of the area where you work (the buildings, streets) - whenever - and send them to me via email? Tempt me!!! I do want to see NY and experience it. Thanks for the comments, Joey - oh, and the Easy Going! I am working on my dance routine like the backup dancers. :) LOL
