Still as spine tingling as when I danced to it in New York and London when it came out. All praise to Marshall Jefferson, a musical genius. This is real peace and love given to a troubled world. Amen.
My brother who passed away in 2005.Loved house / trance music. We played this track open your eyes at his funeral as was a favourite of his. Was very emotional
We were smashing it in london at that time doing the same mate. Went every weekend to Black market records in London to buy imported records that would come in from NYC and Chicago that week. Went home to play them and then off to the warehouse raves to dance til dawn. I'm 53 this year. Peace!!!
Omg . This is timeless and at the same time so important to how how music developed. Marshal Jefferson . Todd terry. Ffrr. Strictly rhythm.. Frankie knuckles.. .. made on earth at the Astoria in London 1989 this played every Saturday.. it will stay with me like the smell of fresh cut grass 😊❤
A prayer, The sounds of house, The promotion of self awareness, and understanding. This track, Back then, Now... on my kitchen bass system, And in the future, Is as much of a revelation today, As it ever has been. Wether your swaying, full of your chosen vice, or even just full of genuine love, under the lights, on the floor, Or, on someones couch, smoking, eyes closed in contemplation, Or, In the woods, really tripping,.... All these things are relative to the understanding and inner peace this classic deep house groover brings. Man we're lucky to have had, and continue to own this, And all its comparative deep acid stablemates. This movement will never be repeated. 🕉💖🙏💖🕉
Fffr probably but if it’s on bug beat. Theirs 30 quid .. also. If u collect I’ll swap in line USA to uk. Baby because the postage at moment is hurrendus.
@@BasementDweller-kw2yl It was some DJs donated stash, there was at least 100 different records. Found some cool stuff including some rare hiphop and frankie knuckles but most of it was pretty bad haha.
2023 and still more relevant than ever. Good luck and best wishes.👍✌️☮️💜🌍❤️ X X X. Strength and Blessings to you all for whatever you have to face.✊✌️🤘🤟🖖✋🖐️
I was 18 years old. Fuck me, great times. My life was ahead of me. My life has not disappointed. Wife , kids and love. JUST MISS THE DRUGS REALLY 😀 xxx
When your coming down and waiting for sunrise, this is the tune you want to hear. Top tune and great memories circa 1986-1990. You're very welcome. 🙏🏾👍🏾😜
In the beginning there was paradise BUT MAN FOOLISH MAN WANTES MORE OUT IF LIFE so he built the apple to become wise but when stood there naked he realised that when he opened his eyes his was still Truly BLIND .... Marshall Jefferson THANK YOU FOR OPENING MY EYES in 1989 at an acid house party in the London Borough of Southwark at the CLINC IN CLINC STREET AND ALMOST 30!years later I am still truly blind .... My acid house brother and sisters receive the light .......
One of the most incredible pieces of music played on the scene back in the day when going out to appreciate the dj, the clubhouse and each other truly meant something. Thank you so much for posting this...much love and a Peace Profound to you and yours. Thank you! 💝
I was there to hear this tune when it came out. It's not that it's just a good tune, it's a pathway to understanding and peace. Ignore the illusion. Peace and love to my brothers and sisters 😁✌️💜❤️💙💎
Wow and wow so powerful spiritual uplifting the best spiritual house track ever made this song really ministered to my spirit healing therapeutic simply Powerful like no other RAISE UR HANDS IF U UNDERSTAND!!!
😊Marshall Jefferson - Open you Eye's has 808 State - Pacific 707 ( Pacific State ) vibes all over it .I bet 808 State were Inspired by this Choon late 1989 style of Fusion of Geners Deep House Hip House & jazzy Music using the House Machine Albeton Casio sampling equipment etc !!! Top of the league ne stuff & what was changing electronic music scene back then when Dance Music was just getting going . Sounds very distinctive in this one 😊 I absolutely love this Choon 😊
One of the best tunes ever CREATED ... In the beginning there was paradise BUT man FOOLISH MAN wanted more out of life So he built the apple to become wise But when he opened his eyes he realised he was still really BLIND .... nothing else to say is there THINK ABOUT IT AND THANK YOU TO THE ACID HOUSE ECSTASY AND MARSHALL JEFFERSON.....🤗
I grew up in the "Chi" during the glory years of deep soulful House and in my old "House music clique we all knew Marshall J. wasn't fuckn around when he dropped this tune! Cuz it was wayyy ahead of its time and Frankie played it one night and we knew that he possessed something supernatural on the "Technics1200's and we talking the 80's bro.
Everyone was inspired by everything back then, but yeah, hear the genesis of Pacific State, fer sure. Liked the 808 State cats. Nice guys; one of the first Brit acts to focus on floor v radio records, cueing off NYC... So let's have at it then th-cam.com/video/6jQ_bOP0HfY/w-d-xo.html First of, honestly, umpteen versions thru the years, updating floor beats and flogging that horse til it was foaming and collapsing. Surprised there's not an auto-tuned Nashville country rap version yet...
We were cruising with this amazing house track in my cousins Rolls Royce Phantom with the starlight ceiling and it was magical almost like being in a night club on wheels. But hard to focus when everyone pulls up and they are trying to 👀 peep in the car 😂

58 now, 23 when i was giving it to this absolute choon, stood the test of time x Still raises hairs
1988 NYC club scene. My 18 year old self can still appreciate this classic at 53 yrs old.
I was born in 88 and I wish I was 18 in 88 for the music scene hip hop house reggae.

Those times were so special. Choice, Sound Factory, Red Zone etc. God bless Marshall and RIP Larry Levan.
Me too. North of England. This tune was massive.

Rumor has it that 808 State's Pacific State was inspired by this track.
You can hear it for sure in the flute and beats for sure

It's difficult to think outside the box. As thinking is the box 😎 Stevie Wonder, views being blind as a gift. God bless.
#Truth👍
I have this on vinyl and forgot about it until now!

Fangoria- Abre los ojos
This song was big world over a true classic and jealousy and lies
yes a million yesses
One love
🔥🔥🔥
Incredible
♥️
Marshall Jefferson is still making music, to anyone interested. I'm using fruity loops11 currently doing bits of trax. ❤
Listen to Fangoria spanish version "Abre los ojos" from "Una temporada en el infierno" 1999 It,s a good version . Under my point of view... ;-)
Only for the real people.
Samadhi 😎 stay healthy brother. Trust your immune system.

Xavier the Renagade Angel?
Always thought those backing vocals were a bit musical theatre tho
Haha, yeah but thing is that sort of fake profundity works at 2am if you’ve adjusted your brain appropriately.
