The Anthology Continues-Vol.4 (PUMP UP THE VOLUME!)

This ClubHouse 31st Anniversary(May 12, 2006)CD is a copulation from the dance party on April 18, 1985, at the world renowned ClubHouse Disco/Dance Club in Washington, DC. The Clubhouse DJâs (Two-time Billboard Magazine DJ award winners) were known for "Specializing in Positive Energy" through music on their turntables.

The music of the legendary ClubHouse(1975-1990) in Washington, DC, its DJ's, and world class entertainers set the standards by which all other House/Dance Clubs and DJ's aspired to in the '70s and '80s.

The ClubHouse opened its doors on Saturday, May, 10, 1975, in a large warehouse at 1296 Upshur Street, N.W. in Washington, DC, with 300 members and their guests. "We began with just two lights, a mere eight speakers, and a large mirror ball in the middle of the room, but within a year we had the best sound system in the world", recalls former owner John Eddy. The famous audiophile Richard Long was commissioned to design and install a state of the art sound system that included massive sub-woofers and tweeter arrays above the dance floor.

From anniversary to anniversary, The ClubHouse grew (often in the face of all conventional wisdom to the contrary) to become one of the best entertainment, dance and social clubs in the world. Famous for its house/dance music, and first class entertainers, but unpretentious and not forgetting its roots, The ClubHouse successfully survived over an extraordinarily long time. Entertainers such as
Bobby Thurston, Fonda Rae, Jennifer Holiday, Jocelyn Brown, Loleata Holloway, Martha Wash, Phyllis Hyman, Sylvester, Two Tons Of Fun, and many others appeared regularly at The ClubHouse.

By retaining the feel of house parties, The ClubHouse afforded its world wide membership (over 4000+ at its peak) and guests the paradox of being out on the town, yet at home with friends and family. The feeling was no accident. Although entertainment was the method, community building and outreach was the driving force behind The ClubHouse.

Finally, after providing the best House/Dance music and exposure to national entertainers, The ClubHouse shut its doors on its fifteenth anniversary in May 1990. Although closed, the legendary ClubHouse and its parties will continue to live on in its'music such as this anniversary issue "The Anthology Continues-Volume 4" and in the hearts and memories of thousands of people all over the world.
