    Good house tracks people might not know.

    So after seeing this thread: http://www.deephousepage.com/forums/...d.php?t=229479

    I was thinking there has to be a lot of good tracks that people don't know or missed hearing when they first came out.

    A big track back in the day here was The She Project - Main Squeeze.

    When the album came out no one even listened to it cause of the name of the album "Technofusion"



    Another one that never got the recognition it deserved in my opinion was The Mighty Riders - The Better Way. Samples Urban Soul - Alright.




    Both albums came out in 1991.

    Got any really good tracks you feel people might not know. Post them !

    Have not met many folks outside of Chi-town who are aware of this track:



    Really tough to find, too.

    That's a pretty expensive record...if you can even find a copy.

    Always reminded me of Marcus Mixx or Joe Lewis style.

    Cool. Don't hear too many 80s Chicago house tracks made with the "Oberheim system" (ob-8, dmx, dsx)

    I'm pretty sure all the Chicago Heads will know this one.

    Outside of Chicago I'm not too sure...

    I was lucky to get this on a bootleg. Still trying to find an original copy for the Spanish version.

    Love Of My Own was impossible to get around here.

    I knew guys willing to pay $100-150 for it back in the early 90's.

    I'm sure it goes for more now.

    This got booted a few years back on colored wax, but even those are now starting to get hard to find:

    The price of vinyl is insane these days. Glad I'm over my record collecting addiction

    And a copy of this. Played this at the hidden lounge a few years ago and the other DJ's was like, slick, you got that on wax? Man I forgot all about that...I didn't. Even got a few of these on the album JL put out. Actually I put this in a mix I posted last year. Back in the day #1.
