I like everything House Music related but if we're gonna take it way back here's my short list.
Must have Classic House singles:
1- Jungle Brothers - Ill House You
2- Can you Feel it
3- Voodoo Ray
4- oh we have to throw some Todd Terry up in there. My favorite is his Bango song.

5-Steve 'Silk' Hurley - Jack Your Body
6- Lil' Louis - French Kiss
7- Inner City - Good Life (now this was the feel good tune of the day along with Big Fun)
8- Ten City - Devotion . . . I wanna give u DEVOTION
9- 2 In A Room - Somebody In The House Say Yeah! This song defines what House Music is all about, fun & dancing
10- KRAZE -THE PARTY (Another fun must have dance single!)
11- White Knight - Jacks The House (just because one can never get enough jackin; plus I would love to hear an updated remix. Let's see who will get inspired)
12- Adonis...No Way Back (so many to choose by Adonis)
before we leave the 80's enjoy this hip hop house tune: Deskee -Let There Be House
Then House Music morphed into something closer to pop music. This change made it easier for the masses to consume with groups like C& C Music Factory and Black Box with Strike it Up. It was strange but kewl to get these small doses of house music on the radio.
1- Crystal Waters - I hated that Gypsy song when it came out but I totally fell in love with The Ghetto and Making Happy. Definately explore her albums. There are gems in there.
2- DeeeLite - What a great voice, not to mention the creativity of the group.
3 - Finally by CeeCee Peneston (that's the jam!)

4- Degrees Of Motion - Do You Want It Right Now
As you can see, I love those powerful female vocals that are so great for singing along to.

Oh yes and the Acid Movement . . . It started in the late 80's and continued for a bit in the 90's before morphing into other styles.
YOu must check out this tune cuz right here you can hear the beginnings of techno & progressive rumblings: Bam Bam - Where's Your Child 1988

Then as the 90's progressed there was even more diversification in House Music. Acid turned into Techno and later into Electro & Progressive. There was also Garage, Deep, Jazzy House and alot of stuff in between like that tune Perculator.
BTW - you can find these songs on my blog.
Enjoy yourself now you've got plenty to play with.
Peace & Love
