Frankie was a good man. I've never heard him be nasty or evil. And, of course, his music was perfect. RIP Frankie. See you on the big dance floor in the heavens.
A decade ago now and filmed 3 years before his passing. Interesting to hear him mention Luther Vandross. A lot if not all of his later work with Eric Kupper definitely has that same seal of quality that productions by people like Vandross and George Benson have. Hugely influential and clearly an incredibly nice guy as well. Love, respect and RIP✌️
Wow beautiful I met Frankie Knuckles at The Metropolis In The Flats.(Cleveland Ohio) the light guy & I carried his reel to reel up to the DJ booth. And Timmy the resident DJ and Frankie Knuckles and I. Went and had breakfast afterwards. At The Big Egg. Super wonderful person. God Rest His Soul.✨🙏🙏✨🙏🙏✨🙏🙏✨
Only Ron Hardy is worthy enough to take that crown from Knuckles. No bashing on Frankie, i know what he stands for, But Ronnie pushed boundaries WAY further than what Frankie did. So to me Ron Hardy has a little more edge than Frankie Knuckles. The Muzik Box was a stage for testing new "unheard of" material and became sort of a ruff territory in DJ and dance. Not just music, but the new drum machine stuff that was evolving. Ron took it on and took also the risk playing it. He had way more balls than Frankie on music exploration.

3000 views hahahaha almost a joke. Then those traktor djs believing the know history.
Exactly. I feel like the culture is dead in house and techno music.
Wow! Boggles the mind that the pioneers of HIP Hop and House music respectively came out of the slums of the South Bronx.

Thank you for sharing your memory ☀️
Why were his songs only played for 5 seconds? In the Marley Marl interview his songs played much longer
What a boss. Gutted I never got to see him. Treasure your kerri chandlers, ron trents and louie vegas while you can. God bless Frankie ♥️
1:13:42-1:14:50 love what he says here!
"Its what you play"
this interviewer sucked... i may be wrong but i noticed the interviewer harboring this attitude of "ugh can we just get this over with".
Why everytime the music starts to play you guys edit it out. We want to hear his creations not be kept out loop. Fix that problem.
They are avoiding a copyright strike.
The thing that I love about franky is that he doesn´t talk like some stupid gangster.
44:36 - What went on there then? Lol

31:02 When was the first time you heard someone refer to house music?
Maayybe 80-81
The Master. Listen to everything he has ever done. Way ahead of his time. Wish he was still here.
A glitch in the matrix: @28:41
Ultimate expression and relevance regarding the history of this incredible music called House!!
Love it 50:45 We all miss you Frankie!💜
Love the information, much appreciated for curating it.🙏💥
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First of all time
What’s that 1st song that made him famous?
"Your Love" with Jamie Principle was an underground hit. but his first record with Virgin records was the whistle song to really blow up.
what a great guy...
Thanks for this!
Niiiiiiice!
I'm gonna say that Chip E. is the "godfather of house", but Knuckles is definitely one of the brightest lights and major innovators.
Chip E??
Chip E. is shit man. Fuck off
dumb
