Bye Frankie

This is what Frankie was doin' in 1987, inspired by Billy Paul, when we were kids and still hooked on Muppet Show and Smurfs.

Satoshie Tomiie, Robert Owens and of course Frankie Knuckles made "Tears" happen. I can still feel like a teenager when I listen to the Full Intention mix.

Frankie Knuckles playin' "The light" causin' delirium to the crowd. I'm so thankful I lived this kind of moment too, one of the three times I had the honor of enjoyin' his tunes live.

So long, Mr. Knuckles. Thank you for your music.
I still hope this is a very bad April Fools' joke.
