House music brings Black and White, Old and Young, Gay and Straight together to the dance floor and makes us appreciate one another and no matter what our differences are, in the end it's all about the music.
Taking house music out of the Summerdance Events in chicago, is just another phase of eliminating the black presence in chicago, and the loop. They get rid of anything that attracts a lot of black people, as much as they can. But, they seem to forget all races of people like housemusic. Getting rid of house music is like when they got rid of disco. Music is music it is all beautiful, We should protest to get house music back as a part of Chicago Summerdance.
@SantucciPontarelli yes we should have protested I thought the people were very civil to mant Blacks it must be a problem. Shame on summer Dance and Mayor Daley
and double shame for allowing it. It has been 2yrs.
the best el mejor dj del mundo tocando ese fabuloso house de chicago fabuloso soy fan de frankie knucles y de todo el house de chicago forever house music en mi heart
Hell yeah!!! I was in that crowd of madness IT WAS DA SHIT! to bad grant park stopped doing this!!! Summer dance dj series is deeply missed! Frankie is truly the GODFATHER OF HOUSE!!!!
Everything was going fantastic: I met up with Phantom 45 from Oak Lawn and he convinced me to go look at a record in the porta potty and next thing I know (OOPS) I was balls deep on Phantom's 4.5. now, I'm used to 8" but he could make it soo jungle that I had no idea he was white/short. Love you all!! lets do each other again sometime,
What's the name of the exact version of the very first song, 'Hold me tighter in the rain' by 'Billy Griffin' that we can hear here!? It's totally different on the iTunes store =/ Thanks!
Hi everybody, wich is the complete REMIX name of the song ""billy griffin - hold me tighter in the rain"" at the very beginning of the video ??? I LOVED IT! AND I LOVE FRANKIE'S MUZAK! PLEASE!!! I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW THE NAME!
You ain't never lied.....Summer of '06 I was there every Wednesday night gettin' sweaty and jackin' my ass off.....Why did they stop having house music in Grant Park?
There was a fight or something at a Summerdance event at another location, so the city canceled it altogether. There are countless fights and date rapes at every sports bar in Chicago every weekend, yet nobody has shut them down. Fucking lame.
Summerdance was brilliant. So great to see club kids, grown up, with their own kids on their shoulders, everyone with huge smiles on their faces. So much fun. I really, really miss it. :(
Minorities are not allowed to have bad apples in public places without shutting down the whole area. They were really on to something with this and they killed it.
I LOVED this night at Summerdance. And the rain made it so much more magical. I haven't returned to Summerdance since they killed the DJ nights. Those were my favorite nights!
You are so right!! The rain came and we still Jacked!! That was a night I will never forget..all ages, all races...gay, straight...true House...once they killed the DJ nights seems the magic left...sad...but memories never die...
hi everybody, Frankie`s the best, also i love da BACK N DA DAY song, but i have a question do somebody know the name of the first song of this video?, please i need to know it, i liked so much...
I was there too !! Amazing night ! They use have the house dj night at Summerdance ! No more though . I think the crowds were too much for the city ! I miss the house dj nights !! Great times
C&C Music factory was created by Robert Clivillés and David Cole - Morales was not involved. However, he did collaborate with them and Ralphi Rosario in 1987 (2 Puerto Ricans, a Blackman & a Dominican) for the track "Do It Properly".
Man... it's amazing the things one can learn from fans on youtube. I haven't heard that song since back in the day. Nonetheless, i have posted one version of Lisa Lisa's "Hit Em" as one of my uploads. I don't have a real video though. Cheers!
Thank you, Frankie is cool, but to me house did not start until the hot mix five came onto the scene, gimme farley, hurley, rosario, Kenny, and Mickey anyday.
Ossito, are you crazy? If it wasn't for what Frankie brought to Chicago the late 70s, we'd still be listening to Italo disco (which is what Mickey, Kenny and Ralphi were mostly spinning on WBMX)! Where do you think this genre got its name? From the (original) WAREHOUSE that Frankie resided at.
I was there that night!!! A Magical night indeed...the rain came and we STILL danced all the way through!! Thanks Frankie and groovefilms for the post.
q grandeeee!! can anybody put the complete tracklist plsss? :)

Thanks a lot. Morales was part of C&C Music Factory right? I've loved all their remixes over the years especially Lisa Lisa's Let the Beat Hit 'Em.
I've heard this song maybe 2 times before and never had any opportunity to ask the DJ.
Thx again.
