The Groove
Saturday August 23rd, 2014 with ELORIOUS CAIN
ORIGINAL UNDERGROUND ACRONYM : H.O.U.S.E. = Homosexuals Of Unusual Sexual Experiences!

Long before Frankie Knuckles played in the Wharehouse there was an underground movement in the streets of Chicago with it's own secret acronym directly tied to the struggle of the Gay community. As H.O.U.S.E. grew into a bold new disco counterculture, other mythology about it became quietly acceptable to the originals from the beginning. They knew how it really all started. It seems only fitting to play Gay House Music for Ottawa's Pride Week.

A show like this would not be complete without certain Junior Vasquez classics. All of this is just a tip of the iceberg.

Elorious! Stop giving valuable history to the public free of charge. Write a book and make some money with it. You are a walking encyclopedia of disco culture and everybody else around you is taking advantage of it. I know. I did it myself when I lived in Ottawa.

Greetings from the BIG APPLE! thanks for featuring some Kevin Aviance! I'm a big fan of her. Maybe in the future you could do a special on special divas like Devine and Kevin. There are quite a slew. I like your show. And I'm glad someone told me about it.

Thank you to everybody for your comments! Wow! What a response! As for df from Calgary - I am actually finishing a written copy of THE REAL HISTORY OF DISCO which, depending on the station, I hope to air in its 18 hour version on the 40th anniversary of THE GROOVE. All the best.
