Club House (band)


Club House was an Italian house music studio group composed of Gianfranco Bortolotti, Carl Fanini, Hidalgo Serra, and Silvio Pozzoli.

Career

The group scored a hit in 1983 with a mashup medley of Steely Dan's "Do It Again" and Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean", titled "Do It Again Medley with Billie Jean". It reached No. 7 in Ireland, No. 11 in the UK and No. 75 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. In 1991, they hit number-one on the U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart with "Deep in My Heart", which used portions of Kier Kirby's vocals from Deee-Lite's 1990 single "Power of Love".
The same two songs in Club House's 1983 medley were also recorded as a note-for-note dance medley by the Detroit, Michigan band Slingshot, which hit number-one on the dance chart with its cover version. There was a further version by Brooklyn Express, a New York studio project by Began Cekic and Eric Durham, also in 1983.
Club House was also well known for the dance single "Light My Fire" which peaked at number 7 in the UK Singles Chart in April 1994. The follow-up single, "Living in the Sunshine", was not quite so successful as it only managed number 21 in the UK in July the same year.
