House Music “Triple Crown” in Salt Lake City

I have been very busy over the course of the last 8 weeks. First there was the business trip to Cheyenne, WY, where on some free time I found a vinyl record store and bought some old school goodies. Then there was my annual vacation time in the hometown of Chicago – the birthplace of House Music. Last week I played a minor role in supporting the Springville World Folkfest which was a sight to behold. Now I will embark in yet another adventure this weekend as I gear up for the “triple crown” in Salt Lake City. Friday (Saturday morning) - Aug 7: “Afterhours (a deep house session)” – www.UtahFM.org, 12:30 AM – 2:00 AM, EST. I will be putting down some smooth/jazzy/funky/soulful grooves. Saturday- Aug 8: “Soul Revival” – www.radio.jerseydjs.com, 11:00 PM – 1:00 AM, EST. I will be presenting a special classic and obscure Disco mix, just for the old school Househeads (LTHS c/o 89 take note!). After the show I will actually be heading to the W Lounge in downtown Salt Lake City to investigate the sounds of Big City House as the guest DJ will be Frankie J from Chi-Town. Sunday - Aug 9: “Volleyball Sundays” at Liberty Park (Salt Lake City), 4:00 – 9:00, EST (4:00 – 7:00, MST). I will be the guest, along with resident DJ Danny Dance, www.danceisafeeling.com. For this set I have some tricks up my sleeve, to include a couple of classics that will be played at just the right time. (Salt Lake people – you’ve been served notice!) Get ready for a “jam” packed weekend! One more note (for the ‘Grand Slam’): The following Tuesday (Aug 11) will bring more goodies for the discriminating ear, as “Pryme Vektor” kicks in on www.radio.jerseydjs.com, 10:00 PM – 12 midnight, EST. 80’s classics for your listening pleasure (LTHS c/o 89…take note again!)
