1989 I had a red jacked up escort van with 2 disco speakers in boxes in the back, attached to a powerful amp. Pulled up in a parking spot somewhere near Tottenham with many other ravers, waiting for news on where the next meeting place was. I had this tune on tape and opened the doors to my van, we had 100s of ravers dancing around the van to a mix of Frankie Knuckles, KLF, Raze and Richie Rich. Always remember the tunes as it was such a great experience and a great night in some warehouse in the end.
So many good memories from tunes like this, the 80’s and 90’s was just different and I miss it. Todays kids will never really now how good life was then, what a time to be alive.
As a Chicagoan, I never realized the effect House Music has on so many people around the world, different cultures, genders, age and classes. It's enlightening to read the posted comment of peoples' experiences from the south-side of Chicago to London. Truly Amazing....
In my opinion probably one of if not the best old skool tunes ever produced a totally timeless classic piece of music produced by the godfather of house and the vocals sung by another legend of house music,I'm 51 now but every time I hear this tune I am 18 again reliving the summer of love,If you know you know thank you frankie,for this all time master peice 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Frankie Knuckles and Robert Owens created timeless classics indeed! House music has a unique way of capturing and conveying emotions, and these two legends mastered the art. It's beautiful how music can leave such a lasting impact and connect people through shared emotions. This music has an incredible ability to transcend time and space, carrying the essence and spirit of its creators. It becomes a timeless connection between artists and fans, a shared experience that goes beyond the physical. It's beautiful how a piece of music can evoke such strong emotions and create a sense of connection.
I can't believe there are 84 people who don't like this. Which planet are they from? So many memories this jam brings back. Still as fresh as the day I first heard it all those years back Yessssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Had a great time this summer, opened my field on my farm, got a load of giant speakers from a friend, a pro, and played all of Frankie's music. only about 100 of us but what a great night!
Sharing my tears and much luv to my man Frankie. Had so many good memories to classics like this while I was runnin the NYC-Brooklyn-North Jersey circuit back in "89".
R.I.P Frankie you went too early, but House will live on in the hearts of so many who came of age in the late 70's 80's and the early 90's. TEARS is so intoxicating
hearing this has made me wanna do better be more helpful and loving PEACE TO FRANKIE YOU WAS THE REASON WHY I STARTED HITTING THE DEX 1986 WHAT A YEAR FOR MUSIC THANYOU!
With fake ID in hand I would make my way into NYC's premier clubs (The Tunnel, Garage, etc) during the early 80's to sharpen my dancing skills and no one had a greater influence on my luv for House Music than Frankie Knuckles! RIP Godfather
The late 80s and early 90s were an era im pleased to have lived through. I try to get it through to my kids...they will never know just how great it was. Clubs, phone boxes down the road as we didn't have mobiles. Meeting someone in a club and getting a biro from behind the bar to write a land line number down. The best days ever.
WE SALUTE YOU SIR... My all time favourite house tune memories of you 8hr sets at MOS London in the early to mid 90s..LEGENDARY... Remembered never forgotten
There's really no way to express the loss house music is feeling today...RIP to the legend ...The Godfather of house music ....you will truly be missed .....and thank you for paving the way for myself and many others.... my condolences to your family ...rest in peace my brother!!!!!
this song, lets you just release any uncomforts in life that you may have, for the moments shared in the spirit of house.. TEARS, YALL!!! LET EM' OUT, BE FREE, LET IT GO!!!!!!
R.I.P. Legend will always be missed the King of house music. I remember hearing this on Kiss 98.7FM In NYC I was on my way to a club in NYC I turn the radio up so loud I bust my own car windows lol Newark nj brick city in da building all day everyday!
Best days of my life....in the days when you went out on the tiles to enjoy yourselves, with ya crew. Popped a little something to help the night along, and made many memorys to come without realizing. till later on in life. Nowdays its going out on the town getting bolloxed and fighting. Youngsters these days have no idea. Carl - UK
I visited New York City for the first time back in the early 90's, so vibrant with a thriving House scene, it's hard to convey just how different NYC was back then, Sound Factory, Peppermint Lounge, The Tunnel Nightclub, Club Sensations, Zanzibar NJ, Club 88. These days simply rocked. RIP Frankie Knuckles. The legend NEVER dies, along with House music itself.
So many amazing unforgettable nights in the hedonistic orbit! If I could just step back to one night am sure I would feel euphoric once again! Ultimate club, epic djs but something tells me bongy bibbys you were there??????
So grateful to have grown up in NYC in the 70s 80s it made me the man Iam today. That era turned you into a man quick and carry yourself with respect and respect others....it's called character
RIP, Frankie, I am glad I had the chance to meet you in person several times. I will always hold on to Grant Park in Chicago. This song is Titled "TEARS" that's what this songs brings me too. Sound off my Chicago House family.
There will NEVER be another summer of love, like in 88 and 89.....House music is a Feeeling , not music...one had to live thru it in 88 and 89 to fully understand the movement....I lost my mind several times....The Tunnel, Roseland, Pallidium,. RedZone, the Underground....I left sweat and tears in those dance floors.
End of the day "move your body" gave us the term House Music check out the original trax label release Frank is was and forever will be the godfather of house
This is, was and will be one of the greatest song ever! Reminds me of: Great partys, great experiences, happiness and good warm feeling inside my stomach :))))
House wouldn't be where it is today if it was for this man...Rest in Paradise to the Godfather of house music.
If you wanna ride the black and white horse.
I was surprised to see your suitcase at the door...MYYY ORIGINAL TRESURES
