One of the most acclaimed vocal house classics of all time, is definitely "Promised Land" by Chicago based DJ / producer Joe Smooth. The track was written and produced by Joe back in the year 1987, while Anthony Thomas can be heard on vocals. The track became a big success and after more than 30 years after the original release of "Promised Land", Joe is still very active in the music scene.
During the Amsterdam Dance Event in October 2019, I had the chance to talk to Joe and ask him about the story behind "Promised Land", his future plans and more!
Enjoy and thanks for watching!

Couldn't forget if I tried! Spain, 14yrs young, family holiday, late 80's. That song defined my musical taste from that day forward.

One of my favorite Promised Land moments was in a movie about a french house producers/promoter called "Eden". There's a club scene where the track kicks in and everyone starts singing along. It's amazing.

Great Video - Thank you! I had the pleasure of meeting Joe Smooth, Anthony Thomas and several other artists after the London gig of the '87 Chicago House Tour. (I was just an enthusiastic 21 year old and had fallen in love with HoUsE since hearing 'Love Can't Turn Around' by Farley Jackmaster Funk, Jesse Saunders & Darryl Pandy the year before.) I was allowed back through the stage door and then sat and chatted with them whilst they kindly autographed some of their records for me. (which I had for some reason decided to bring with me on the night and left them in the car just in case) An amazing experience which I still treasure and I still have the records of course. Great people and a very exciting time - the love of the music and the sense that something really big was about to happen. It was only years later that I discovered that it was possibly a tour to the U.K./Europe that had inspired Joe to write 'Promised Land'. Good times. Big Love.

Just wondering, one of my faves of all times were Warp 69 by natural high And Love Stimulation by Humate. Just certain versions played in the club, do not like all versions. Vraag mij af, mn favorieten zijn Warp 69, Natural High en Love Stimulation van Humate, zijn die al eens langs geweest? Zo ja moet ik zeker beter zoeken. Moet zeggen dat ik niet elke versie die ik later hoorde even mooi vond.

What a musical genius. Imagine if this loving guy was president and made it mandatory to have street partys every month. Oh and wages capped at 200k..if you did it was passed onto third world countries..No guns or hate just love..What a world it would be?..btw did he come from a rough neighbourhood?
