Our thanks to the forever generous Robert Williams for his donation of pictures for this month’s photo spread. Being the owner of the legendary Warehouse and Music Box, Robert has photographs of him and his fellow clubgoers partying it up. Look carefully and you’ll see the young mugs of people like Robert himself, Frankie Knuckles, Ron Hardy, Wayne Williams and Dave Medusa.
How wonderful is it that so many of the people pictured are still active in the scene, spinning and throwing parties even to this day? Soon pictures of us will be looked back on 20 to 30 years from now, and hopefully our grandma/grandpa asses will still be shaking it on the floor with all them young bucks. So enjoy this issue, stay warm, and keep supporting House!
