Found this obscure article on Trax on a search engine (sherlock), very entertaining, does a nice job going over the origins of chicago house. http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/1392/Trax.html
Jessie Saunders: "So I'm looking for someone to help me make a record, and it so happened that Vince [Lawrence] had come in the club looking for me to play a record that he had, this way-out avant, garde thing, 'cause at the time I would play Devo and the B52s. He'd talked to me about how his father had this label and where they would press records, so the first person I thought of was Vince. He took me down there and that's where I met Larry Sherman. And that's when the nightmare began! [laughs]" As far as Jesse Saunders book, cant comment cause I haven't read it but he does have a web site for the book. http://www.justsaypro.com/ Peace. stephen.
