  • "In the beginning, there was Jack..."
    Although he recorded some of the most iconic House Music lyrics in history, most people have no idea who Chuck Roberts is. This is the story of how Chuck's chance meeting with the Chosen Few DJs at their 2017 Chosen Few Picnic - and an incredible impromptu performance that brought down the house - relaunched his career and produced a highly anticipated remake of his classic track.

    We had a lot of music that influenced us. In the beginning, those words changed us. It changed a conciousness. It allowed and gave us permission to be free and feel a quality of being. An expansion, beyond religion,

    This is cool. I have video of the Chosen Few House Music Picnic (The original name) from almost every year starting in 2002 at the original location behind the Museum of Science and Industry when it was around a total of 200 people in attendance. I might upload them to UA-cam one day.

      It wasn't that many pressed. The original is going for a lot of money now. I found a original 1987 pressing in the cutout bins at Gramaphone Records in Chicago for $3.99 in the early 2000's.
