I'm 53 y/o. Grew up on the South Side. No denying the pure sound and energy of house music from your bedroom, cars on the streets and of course the clubs.
Jack Your Body is nothing short of earth shaking brilliance! Thank you Chicago for giving the world House Music. Steve 'Silk' Hurley is a GENIUS who DESERVES a sea of flowers! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I was born in 46 and have been through many genres of music (the love of my life). In the past few years, I have discovered House, Italo-disco, Hi-Nrg and some new 90s stuff that is cool. Gotta say, I love electronic music and what good DJs can do with it. Yes, I was a 60s hippie and even survived Woodstock 69, lol. Peace and much love to all.
Born in 68 loved the 80's music especially dance music and to this day I say the 80's was the best decade for music as there was such a wide variation.
Yes, I did too Southside. We used to jam to IOU, LOVE CANT TURN AROUND 12inch mix, MY MINE, MOVE YOUR BODY, JACK YOUR BODY, BREAK 4 LOVE, FRENCH KISS, DIN DAA DAA, and LET NO MAN PUT ASUNDER ect... then in 1990 I moved to ATLANTA those were the good days. (HOUSE HOUSE HOUSE)!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anybody growing up in Chicago during the 80s gotta know about this music and the radio stations and clubs that played this kind of music best times ever the 80s
Happy to have the original vinyl single.When it reached number one in early 1987 UK charts it was like something out of this world.Groundbreaking song.
First UK no 1 without any mainstream radio play, which was a big deal back in 1987! First house track I heard & completely blown away - sounded like nothing I have heard before.

There are thousands and I mean THOUSANDS of DJs, artists, producers and writers around the world who owe a lotta props to this record and the scene it came out of.
True, Steve "Silk" Hurley is one of the inventors of the genre called House. However he was inspired by Let No Man Put Asunder from First Choice which is one of the most sampled records in the history of House music.
first 3 real house records i the uk was this,, move your body by martial jefferson which never charted and love cant turn around by farley jackmaster funk,, which was the first house record to chart at no 10,, these 3 were really the best of the early house records in 86,,,,, the start of the dance music scene,,,, and right at the start of my going out days,, 17,,,, just epic days,,,
@@funkysexy69 Right. Lol you must have them kids when he was 14 or 15, my cousin had her first daughter at 12. My cousin looks like the older sister LOL
House Music my longest love affair approaching 40 years . I was 15 when this hit the UK . I now record and produce house music . Legendary tune . Il stop listening to house when they hammer the last nail in my coffin .
Looking back, it's just amazing (but great) to know that this record reached No. 1 on the UK charts in January 1987. I doubt that such a minimalist record in its arrangements could reach No. 1 today.
Very true Adamant Official NYC - this was absolutely stunning considering the track had hardly any play time on the major radio stations in the UK such as Radio 1 & this was a big deal back in the day! I don't think people realise how big an impact this track had on the UK house music scene.
a track has to have a particular sound to get in the top 10 now it's very narrowed down compared to how it was in 1987, all different styles together in the top 10
This is absolutely brilliant. I remember hearing this the first time and realising music had changed big time. This is exactly what we had been waiting for. Still sounds as good today.
1986 Baltimore Md. I first heard this track at Club FANTASY and was blown away with all the music that I had heard but, this particular track with a few others had everyone on the floor pumped up. Total classic. And about 5 or 6 days later, I heard it in Odell's and it got the same response from the crowd, so I knew it was a banger! Hang your hat on that! PROPZ GIVEN!!!!!!!
Back in 86 I was an assistant nightclub manager for a large publicly traded company….. 126 nightclubs nation wide . There was a National dance competition and one of the local regulars came in and choreographed and danced the most amazing dance to this song. … the song was so fresh and different at the time (Roland tr606 and tb303 baseline). Sequencers. That dude should have won …..we all thought so but sadly back in the day skin colour ‘coloured ‘ the judges decision Such a pity. … still, things are 1000 times better now. I often think of those times and that dancer I wonder what happened to him Peace
I was at a fairground in Wembley the other day and one thing ill say is fairgrounds have always known their music. Nevertheless they were blasting this out in 2022!
This song "Jack Your Body" was the first #1 House Music song in North America, released in 1986 - this song's primal, hypnotic beats - changed my life in a great way - took me to places I'd never been before, via the dance floor - I really came out of my shell - I couldn't stop dancing to house music and dance music after I heard this song! Thank God for House Music!
In the beginning there was Jack ... and Jack had a groove. And from this groove came the grooves of all grooves. And while one day viciously throwing down on his box, Jack boldly declared: "Let There Be House!", and House music was born.
I'd been listening to a lot of instrumental music back in the 80s then this tune dropped along with M. A. R. R. S. - Pump Up Volume and Stevie Silk Hurley - Love Can't Turn Around and it all made sense.... Stone cold classic 👌
I remember when i first heard this. It was the first house track id heard and i literally froze. Could not believe what i was hearing. Hypnotised by that monotonous bassline. I was listening to the future. Addicted to house ever since
Us too, we heard it early in the clubs while it was still unreleased and searched London for promo copies to play out. Remember the first time I heard it all the girls went nuts for it! It sounded like the future.
Cool the way house music was invented in chicago !! By a few black dude making music in their bedrooms... and once it go to the UK well it went to whole different level.. Black people are so creative musically its insane!!
Mine was 'Love Can't Turn Around'. I remember hearing it on the radio in 1986 and thinking it sounded so different from anything else that was around at the time.
I played "Jack Your Body" in 1988 on the "Hitachi TRK-3D8W 3-way 8-speaker system". It sounded so fantastic. It still does. Thanks, Silk Hurley for the beats. It reminds me so much.
Oops I pressed the big chunky pause button on top of my cassette player with JYB in back in '86, just pressed play again 35 years later BOOM! Sounds unreal!!!!!!!
House Music came into my ears with Jack Your Body - Steve "Silk" Hurley, 1986, and that was it there for me! A young guy from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹 Do not doubt the power of music.
In the beginning There was JACK and jack had a groove, and from this groove, came the grooves of all grooves, and while one day viciously throwing down on his box, he declared LET THERE BE HOUSE, AND HOUSE MUSIC WAS BORN. I am you see - I am the creator and this is MY HOUSE, Our house and our house music is A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE SPOKEN AND UNDERSTOOD BY ALL- JACK YOUR BODY- JACK IS THE ONE.

zmov1 you should check out The Orb, Future sound of London, Underworld, Orbital...if you're into 90's electronic..👍
Daft Punk, Cassius, Basement Jaxx, Fatboy Slim are a few bomb 90's act that come to mind.

I grew up in Chicago during this era. Chicago House is still my favorite of all styles. And I love most if not all genres of music.

Happy to have the original vinyl single.When it reached number one in early 1987 UK charts it was like something out of this world.Groundbreaking song.
I'd say this is the tune that got the masses first involved in house and man in the UK did house music take off like a rocket after this.
ive still got my original 12" import .
First UK no 1 without any mainstream radio play, which was a big deal back in 1987! First house track I heard & completely blown away - sounded like nothing I have heard before.
This unofficially launched House Music onto the UK... Amazing Times never to be repeated or forgotten..

Record sales back then were huge & really meant something
a track has to have a particular sound to get in the top 10 now it's very narrowed down compared to how it was in 1987, all different styles together in the top 10
At that time, in Chicago, it never dawned on me that everyone didn't have local DJ's doing songs as good as this.
srsly we just thought it was normal but we were being blessed by the house gods : D
This tune was revolutionary in it's day, it still gets you groovin' nearly 30 years later! It started something that lasted in the music industry!
This is absolutely brilliant. I remember hearing this the first time and realising music had changed big time. This is exactly what we had been waiting for. Still sounds as good today.
Heard this back in 1985, stopped me stone cold dead in my tracks, house music been my life ever since, still going strong now I'm 50.

If you were raised in Chicago this is our music. No city can claim it. Also, don’t drive listening to House Music, guarantee speeding ticket.
first track on the first album i purchased myself aged 11 - The House Sound of Chicago in 1986 \o/ happy times
House music just makes me feel good and reminds me of the good old day's

Steve's drum programming always had that high tech funk to it.
how can you not like this song? pioneer
paul holliday first house music number one and still the number one
And then there was light.
Amen to that ..
well said.
and then there
was ... HOUSE MUSIC ... ;)
In the beginning there was Jack ... and Jack had a groove.
And from this groove came the grooves of all grooves.
And while one day viciously throwing down on his box,

That's so true total bliss 😀
This was the time people was so happy on the dance floor
Man this brings me back to 1986. In the weekends on power 102 they would have supermix’s and would always play this.
It is so totally PERFECT it freaks me out.

Ditto, I was a teen when I first heard this, still addicted to house music today in my 50s!!
Me to it blew away everything that went before and from that moment on I sought out this thing called house music
