Joe Smooth – Promised Land

Of the many records dubbed as “Classic House” that came out of the US in the late 80′s there are few that can have as uplifting effect as the 1987 classic “Promised Land” by Joe Smooth.

Joe was a self taught musician who was also known to DJ around the early Chicago house scene but is best know for his productions with this week’s classic being the zenith of his achievement. With Anthony Thomas on vocal duties the tune speaks of brothers, sisters and always gets the smiles up when its gets played out. This has to be one of my all time favourite house tunes.
