I always thought it was by Chuck Roberts. I forget the original label, but it 
was one of those early Chicago ones. I'm pretty sure that's the first place 
the "My House" speech appeared.

Well, here it is AGAIN..TP should
start a history of house and
techno hotlinehe  he he he

This subject came up on the 313 list a few months
back, I saved the message
that Terrence Parker posted with the answer to this
seemingly omnipotent
question.  So with all credit due to TP, here is his
answer:

"The ORIGINAL VERSION of the famous speech "In the
beginning there was Jack,
and Jack had a groove . . . ." is by ITALO ECSTASY.
The track is entitled
"MY
HOUSE," and was ORIGINALLY released on XYZ RECORDS
late in the year 1986.

Yes, it was used as a "vocal drop" on top of many
instrumental recordings
over the years, including Mr. Fingers' "CAN YOU FEEL
IT." But don't get it
twisted ladies and gentlemen. The Mr. Fingers' version
(which was originally
a BOOTLEG) is NOT WHERE THIS SPEECH ORIGINATED FROM!"

the original is by the rhythm masters on catch a beat records, the track is
called my house. can't remember the year, and can't find it in the records
at the moment.
it really came to general notice when larry sherman at trax records put the
accapella over the top of fingers inc 'can u feel it'.

The vocal/speech is floating around on several different acapella records.
The one I have is Acapella Mash Ups - The Best Of Old School Acapellas Vol
1...The speech in question is credited to Mr. Fingers on this record,  but I
think Sakke is correct on it's true origin.  Btw this record also has the
MLK I Have A Dream speech on it as well.

Cheers,

I remember this discussion appeared on the 313 list about 2 or 3 years ago.
(semi-oldtimer here) :)  From what I can recall (wish I knew how to access
the 313 archives), I think it was Terrence Parker that cleared the air and
said that the acapella originally appeared on a track by a group called
Italo Ecstasy and the name of the track was called "My House"... originally
released on XYZ records about 1986.  Of course, it was sampled into the Mr.
Fingers track and is much more well known being associated with "Can U Feel
It", but that's the history behind it, from my understanding.

Is TP still on the list?  Do I have this correct? LOL

check the archives.

terrence parker gave a very long and knowledgable history of this speech and
the records on which it's appeared, oh, about a year and a half ago.

do you know where it is sampled from?

we found out with matthew that there is this track "Osheen - my house" 
which supposedly used first this vocal - _possibly_ even before "can you 
feel it" was originally released (original is the instrumental afaik).

anyway, i have no idea when the mix of "can you feel it" that has the 
speech was originally released. i bought mine when trax uk released 
those 10" records in mid-nineties.

i just can't remember the artist but there is this track called "let 
there be house" from WAY back in time, and i've been told that the 
speech would be from that track. 

i recall that this speech has also been used by dj sneak in 
mid-nineties.
