Ger-many too !!! ^^

[BlackUnderground718]

Didnt matter when it got to your city or imported to you this timeless classic still kicks ass today as it kicked ass back then! I use to turn all the lights off in The Underground (Union Square NYC) and make it pitch black during the intro and then when the first beat dropped I'd flood the club with strobes! Oh man the college kids went bananas every single time i did this!

[Hubraoul]

[kierent73]

I remember listening to this on The House Sound of London 1988 The Jacking Zone back in '88. 4 years later, I remember listening to it alongside all the hardcore techno and thinking 'this still sounds totally brand new!'

[shazlouie]

This is one track that should have been left alone...NO REMIXES!!!

[birdmanbenjibeat]

Yep I agree, the original is the only one true fucking floor stomper! I feel young again!

[mchotmary]

[tuffty69]

Heard this at a club in leeds 89-90...era of classic house techno, rap hiphop

[dillonmerritt]

Getrufusized - DEFINITELY! I had this 12". BTW cool moniker, luuuuv the Rufus/Chaka of the 70s era.

[ev3nflow]

I first heard this in ....the hacienda summer 89..

perfection..cheers kev.

[GETRUFUSIZED]

Does anybody remember when everyone DANCED all night like there was NO tomorrow!! yessssss!!!!

[VideoGeek1973]

Longing for the days when techno and house were brothers instead of distant, somewhat estranged cousins.

[cubanmodel123]

theres a version of this song with a woman rapping but its the same song. SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME FIND IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mick2spic]

Chicagomack1 posted a woman singing along. I wouldn't call it rapping, you might, Reese "Rock To The Beat".

[offtoshop]

try the lisa m version, that might be the 1. hope this helps

[E23R0]

you are looking for 101-Rock To The Beat (original mix)

[flicker66]

Brilliant. Real props to the genius Kev 'Reese' Saunderson.

[LittleFellaDynamics]

Oh yes...

The fact that there are so many remixes of this proves it's classic status... and I do have to agree that original is still the best

There was an acid mix that went on for about 8 mins or so, all the same but with an acid line ovva the top... great it was ;)

[soupnmusic]

Here's how it's done. "Said A Rooooooooooooooooock to the Beat!" You have to hold that "o" for a little while. That's the correct way to sing it. Don't sing it like 101 or Lisa M.. Those versions I pitched right into the trash. They need to learn from Latonya Saunderson.

[LittleFellaDynamics]

heh heh ;)

Fully agreed there soupnmusic - - I was just thinkin' this and then read your post - - proppa statement I tell ya! ;) cool

[alvanson]

word

[innerspace428]

said rock to the beat,im top notch,i'll jump your rhymes like hopscotch,i was there in 89,when dancing was a crime,,and i was humming this stuff... all the time,it kept me in mind ,then i met ryhme, and corabelated thougths of a simalar kind..

[Princeben07]

This is the ORIGINAL version; don't forget it okay? n.n

[regiesuntan]

this original is best takes me back

[SeamusCFC]

Just too good this tune is..! A most excellent post,much apreciated..!

[deejflash]

Is there another remix of this to this song that has more sing? Lyrics are like, "Party dancing around, they need nothing but a good grove and a good sound ... said rock to the beat, said rock to the beat..." etc I'm looking for that track.

[elzangano2]

I think it's the "Hitman Mix"

[redfokker75]

It's the one by Lisa M. I've just found it!

[alvanson]

Yo I remember hearing this tune all coked up trying to find my way to the bathroom and being scared shitless cause this sound was so eerie,dark and wicked!!!!!!!!!!

[3charmed1s]

Great song...Do you have the orginal cut with the lyrics?

[aluoechler]

indeed wicked - best mix of this still hot classic.

[brothaman007]

MUTHER FUCKER !!!!

[njweddingdj]

classic..pure classic house... love every second of it

[JamBacchanal]

YES YES YES!!! I'M IN HEAVEN NOW AND i CAN DIE NOW....THANKS 4 POSTING. dAMN! HOUSE USED TO BE SOOOOOOOO GOOD LOL

[ressla]

Yes! what a record.Thank god this is the full length version of FFRR rather than the silly edit on the KMS release. Notice how he sneaks in "the sound" riff near the end.

[jammydodger05]

I love the dark sound to this tune ... its wicked.

[betaljuice]
