Farley "Jackmaster" Funk

Farley Keith Williams

b. Jan 25, 1962 in Chicago, IL
DJ and producer. First made his name broadcasting on Chicago's WBMX-FM as a member of the [l=Hot Mix 5] DJ team. Farley also appeared at the Warehouse club and then began a residency at the Playground.
Known as Farley Keith or Farley Funkin' Keith until 1984. He then adopted the name Farley "Jackmaster" Funk and together with [a=Jesse Saunders], created the first house single to reach the UK charts. His anthem [i]Love Can't Turn Around[/i] (cover of [a=Isaac Hayes]' [i]I Can't Turn Around[/i]) made the Top Ten in mid-1986.
By the late '80s, he had lost his DJ residency. His recorded output during the '90s was relatively small, preferring to concentrate on performing on the global DJ circuit.
