Some people call Chip E. one of the godfathers of Chicago house music. But back in high school I didn't know anything about him. I just knew that I really liked to dance to his record, "If You Only Knew".
I used to get so excited when it'd come on one of the WBMX mixes. It was the house music version of a song by the Smiths. A bit dark, lonely and full of unrequited love.
Here's the track with some great footage of Chicago. Watching this makes me a little homesick.

I remember dancing to this song at a "juice bar" called McGreevey's in Chicago. I think it was 1986. I was 15 or 16. Thanks for sharing!
