Fast Eddie / Let’s Go My Favorite Mix

The dance floor would go berserk once i banged this in from the very first beat…my light man Jumpin’ Jason would black out the room and build the lights right along with the build up of this track… not only that but the Funky Black Man, Timmy Butler would wait for my cue and play live keyboards as well…wow…what an experience!..i always felt like a conductor

yes we usually played almost the entire song…made dancers sweat their asses off and assisted in making many love connections over the years….very much the opposite of today’s dj’s that play for what i call the “short attention span theater” … More

Go Miss Thing / Jack and Jill

Well, it looks like i am reminiscing lots lately of my tenure behind the turntables…i believe it’s because it was such an important part of my life. I started mixing in 1973 (get the calculators out to figure out the age…it’s all good)

Our music and the dancers that religiously showed up to dance to it was a “happening” more than a regular club night.

We really created a very mysterious vibe with our music…anyway, i am working on my book about those days and this is just a miniscule excerpt extracted from the first drafts…enjoy….house music all night long…..

Salsa House / Richie Rich

Here is a house music track that became an anthem of sorts. Anytime i mixed this in it created a frenzy on the dance floor. I first became aware of the house music scene, mostly from Chicago and Detroit in about 1985, this track came out in ‘88.
