If this is the tune I'm thinking of, then it comes from an old Frankie Knuckles track. If it isn't, then it isn't.

'Your Love'

Jack Fact:
Original Trax 12"s were pressed on secondhand vinyl so quality is often awful

it's a pretty easy bassline to recreate if you can get your hands on some soft synths or indeed actual synths. do you want to buy my Yamaha CS1x for £100?

it was by jamie principle, NOT frankie knuckles.

and the Source's version is fucking horrible, it's not a bass line in the original, it's a pulse, you can hear the horrible chugging in their badly replicated version plus the You've Got The Love vocal has nothing on the original.

stirmonster - what's the root of this Jamie Priciple/ Frankie Knuckles confusion?

"You've got the love" means more to me just because of the memories that are tied to the first times i heard it but i agree "your Love" is better.

the You've Got The Love vocal has nothing on the original

it is the original vocal isn't it? the track is just a bootleg of that acapella and the Principle track isn't it? so surely it can't actually sound different. unless you mean the Rob D-esque remix from '97?

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:27 (twenty years ago)

No the original vocal is not by Candy Stanton (staton?). The track is re-recorded on the Source's version too.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:28 (twenty years ago)

then why was it credited as The Source featuring Candi Staton in the charts? i remember the Staton track and it's the same!

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:29 (twenty years ago)

i mean it makes sense if Staton re-recorded her vocal for The Source but i couldn't tell the difference between that and her disco version from whenever it was, but this is just based on 1990/91 memory.

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:31 (twenty years ago)

I think Ronan just means that he prefers the Male vocal on the priciple track to the female vocal on the source track.

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:33 (twenty years ago)

Ronan hates bootlegs shockah ;) sorry for any confusion

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:34 (twenty years ago)

confused now, yes I know the two Staton vocals are the same, I meant I prefer the male vocal in the Principle track, as Jed said. Also the music in the original "Your Love" is definitely different from the bootleg.

x-post haha!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:35 (twenty years ago)

i assume i'm one of many people who heard The Source before they heard Candi Staton AND Jamie Principle. possibly a factor in that i always liked 'You Got The Love' and never thought the vocal was awkward or out of place (no more than say Lumidee's 'Never Leave You' which is another case of a vocal being put over a track it was not initally intended for)

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:36 (twenty years ago)

yeah i knew "you've got the Love" first and i think it's dearer to me for that reason.

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:37 (twenty years ago)

does anyone remember the '97 remix i referred to? it's very similar to 'Clubbed To Death'!

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:38 (twenty years ago)

it's sort of funny that instead of being old enough to have heard "Your Love" and then outraged at a different version I am in fact too young to have heard The Source but I heard "Your Love" well before it.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:42 (twenty years ago)

Ok - here's what stirmonster said elsewhere about the jamie principle/ frankie knuckes confusion:

" frankie knickles has NOTHING to do with this record musically. jamie principle originally gave frankie a tape of this to play at the warehouse and it became one of his anthems. EVERYONE in chicago knew who frankie knuckles was and at this point, house records were really only made with a view to selling them locally - a big house hit could sell up to 25000 copies just in the chicago area. this is an incredible figure - more than most house records today could hope to sell globally. because of this, there was a trend to name records 'so and so presents...' (ie - frankie knuckles presents jamie principle) as the fact that frankie knuckles or ron hardy had their names attached to a record would massively inflate the local sales. sadly this has led to confusion over the years that frankie knuckles must have had some input into this record. he didn't."

yeah -i'm that old ronan and i feel it :'(

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:43 (twenty years ago)

now can someone clear up how much of 'Tears' is down to Knuckles and how much is down to Tomeii?

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:45 (twenty years ago)

the first time I heard The Source was on Eskimp's SUMMER MADNESS comp, which is great btw.

Jed you can stay rocking forever!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 2 December 2004 13:48 (twenty years ago)

No sure who did what but I do know Frankies Knuckes and Satoshi Tomiie wrote Tears over the phone.

Sorry, don't know what happened there.

― wtin, Thursday, 2 December 2004 16:14 (twenty years ago)

Tears > Your Love for me

― Frankenstein On Ice (blueski), Thursday, 2 December 2004 17:18 (twenty years ago)

one year passes...

I own 2 versions, the acapella on ZYX records which is only 17 seconds, and the housapella from 1986, but it has snaps and beats.

Does anybody know if the REAL acapella (obviously used by Principle and The Source) has ever been pressed? I'd love to get my hands on it..
