Album artwork for The House Music Anthem by Marshall Jefferson

Marshall Jefferson's The House Music Anthem. Available here on 12".

This track's claim to fame is the first use of piano on a house record — and its barnstormer melody on the keys would be imitated for decades. Jefferson culled the song's vocalists — including lead crooner Curtis McClain — from his post-office graveyard shift. And, with his lyrics, he helped foment the long trend of the self-referential track: house music about house music itself.

12" - Standard 12".
