Thank you for the music Frankie Knuckles! R.I.P. & "Love Love Love" & "Fly away"

- Frankie Knuckles was the DJ at the Warehouse nightclub in Chicago from 1977 to 1982. It is widely accepted that his style of DJing and his selection and the appeal of the Warehouse gave house music its name, although in the beginning, the word 'house' was used only in Chicago to denote something which was cool, hip, fresh or bad. Frankie Knuckles had been long time friends with Larry Levan, they had had their musical upbringing together from going to clubs like Loft and the Gallery.

Due to his importance in the development of house, Frankie Knuckles was often known as "The Godfather of House Music", and as such the city of Chicago named a stretch of street and a day after Frankie Knuckles in 2004.

His accomplishments earned him a Grammy Award in 1997. As well, Frankie Knuckles was inducted into the Dance Music Hall of Fame for his achievements in 2005. -text credits: discogs.com
