the piano chord was an established part of disco music and house music
before marshall came along and made move your body. his claims that using
piano chords was so out of context and came more from fats domino is a
little hard to take.
here are some paino tracks that predate marshall.
cheryl lynne ' you saved my day' - a disco piano stormer that was big on
theearly chicago house scene.
thank ya by sweet d on trax samples the piano from 'you saved my day' and
predates move your body.
discogs is down so i cant check, but didn't 'someday' come out before 'move
your body'? it has to be the all time piano house track.
there are more examples, but the point is - don't beleive everything that a
chicago dj tells you.
btw - i noticed that the cheryl album has been re-released, not that it is
hard to find second hand.

I remember Marshall Jefferson saying something similar about how some of
those early piano riffs were inspired by 80s rock music.
