Still one of the freshest tracks I’ve heard to this day. Love how you hear a blend of both Frankie and Jamie’s styles. Frankie’s keys and Jaime’s sampler running in perfect harmony. THIS track is what house is about. Not that nonsense of those 20 minute tracks where the guy is talking about nothing…”so um…like…I went to Burger King…-insert stupid laugh-…and like, whopper -another stupid laugh-“

@DaveMoserNCCBFR

Thx for sharing an awesome classic by the one and only House Master, "Frankie Knuckles"! Too bad there are not more people who have been taken there. If they had been there we would not have half the problems the world constantly experiences! RIP Frankie!
