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.

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!!!!!!!

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.

This is the greatest dance track of all time.
