    I stumbled across this video and am sad to hear that you have passed. I am sure you wouldn't have remembered me, but know that you spared some time for me and that simple act of kindness to a kid from the ghetto sparked a wonderfully lived life. I always figured I would get to thank you in person but I see the time for that has passed. So if there is a heaven, I hope you get to look down upon my words and know that your words helped saved a life from poverty and disrepair. I didn't go on to be the DJ that I said I would be, but I did get to see the world, have kids and now in the 51st year of my life, am happily married and living a life I never thought possible. Thank you brother, god bless and may we meet in the next life.

      Exactly DJing like it should be done, Tired of watching dj's faking stuff turning knobs for what, and screaming everybody jump just to get some crowd reaction, because they bore the hell out of people, instead of focusing on their craft and playing top music, they focus on being a star, and look at this room has more life then those dj's playing at 50,000 crowd festivals, where they need to scream at the crowd and wear halloween costumes to get them to do something, Pathetic!!!!!!! Frankie Knuckles total respect. People will be watching this more and more as they get sick and tired of the fake stuff and come back to the roots of all that crap they made it into and just make it simple and dance till they drop. Like the good old days..

      In theory, nothing, but they very often are deployed to hide the fact that the music's sub-standard. It's like going to watch a film and getting excited about the explosions and fight scenes, regardless of how poor the story and characters are.
      In respect of the knob twiddling, why the need to constantly mess with your levels? Again, I find it's a way of the DJ trying to distract the crowd from poor music and trying to make it look like they're constantly 'doing something'. Just my opinion of course.

    1:03:50 when he placed both hands on his heart it brought tears to my eyes. it's impossible to overstate what Frankie did for a generation of LGBTQ Black, Brown, and White kids growing up in the 70s and 80s, the HOPE contained in these tracks is undeniable..you think about the length of his career, how many sets just like this he played, and the amount of joy, hope, and affirmation he brought to so many people. rest in peace KING

We use to hit the clubs and party none stop to House Music, and Club Music. Nothing Like it.

Thanks for sharing, and thank you Frankie for creating,pushing, sharing, and all the countless things you did for House music. You left your mark on so many people, helped open minds, and changed lives. Thank You.

    Magic Man. I love that he always kept it true to his origins in disco/soul/funk. Getting harder and harder to find anyone spinning disco house/funky house/Chicago house (at least out here in Cali)...seems like it's all dubsetp and garbage "EDM" these days. Long live the Godfather.

    Just now found out he died, didn't know. This man is a legend and i was about to say that it breaks my heart to see all these legends going to decks that do everything for you, it even matches your beats. These guys are very talented and should be on the wheels of steel with vinyl and not that crap. I am old school and vinyl and turntables will always live in me and be my preference. I don't mind using one of them cd decks for music i can't find on vinyl and can only get in digital. It's a lot more work to lug around your vinyl collection but hey, YA GOTTA LOVE IT to wanna do it. Today you have a lot of people spinning cd decks and mixers that do all the work for them and then call themselves DJ's. These type of people wouldn't earn the respect of the DJ community. It's like a cheap shot in instead of earning it the hard way. R.I.P frankly!, ya made my Friday and Saturday nights back in the day! on the radio!.
