It became a Chicago house anthem classic – and it was cooked up in just 30 minutes by four postal workers after a tough shift on the letter-sorting machine
Marshall JeffersonI first heard the term “house music” in Chicago in 1983 when I was working at a post office. There was this girl there who dressed crazy, with her hair different colours. She said she was going to the Music Box, where they played “house music”. I went along and the bass was so loud it physically moved you back a couple of inches. I got into house from that point on.– 1984’s On and On – but lots of us thought we could do better.
Move Your Body was the first house recording made with piano on it but Love Can’t Turn Around came out before it. Some people said Move Your Body wasn’t house –at Trax Records disliked it so much, I had to pay him to press it up. I gave it to him to release under our band name On the House, but he put it out as Marshall Jefferson, which caused a lot of problems with the other guys.. Technotronic didn’t technically sample Move Your Body for This Beat Is Technotronic. They just played the riff.
