Good job Bernie!!! I always enjoy hearing how the top DJ's did their jobs and I was real glad you asked for the example of the crowd-pleasing killer mix he used at his audtion.



What I missed was what John is doing now. He quit spinning at some point in the '80's and referred to a "music editor" job, if I remember correctly. Did I make this part up?



Just curious.

[markydefad]

Oh, and I loved the list of his favorite artists and their best songs.



Especially, the listing at #2 of Jackie Moore's great "This Time Baby" with it's classic John Luongo mix. That man sure knew how to remix to make you wanna dance.

I liked the mix. What did others think of it?
