Vinyl Love parts 1-10

I've decided to start posting up pictures of my favourite records. I used have about 20,000 vinyl albums and 12"s and still have well over half of that so as you can imagine there is some great art and some iconic covers.

Here are the first ten!

Let's start off with the legendary B-boy and graf artist who passed this week, this was a pioneering tune
Ramelezzee RIP



Since it's Jam's 8th Birthday tomorrow here is a classic from way back in the Sir Henrys days unreal cover and banging tune



"Now for my next record, i'd like to return to the classics"



"Dance this mess around" and other nice tunes from a great new wave band



One of the best Stevie Wonder album covers and an under-rated album



another great cover, another great band and one of the greatest songs of all time-great price too!



1993, Fish Records, Liberty St! (got it signed years later)



Gig is cancelled in Cork, but at least the music is still here EPIC music on Motown



Love this; Mahalia Jackson



Finally for now, a bit of modern day soul and a signed copy of a great album

Yo Latino paves way for Carnivale this Friday!

Yo Latino was a night that ran in the Half Moon for about 4 years at the turn of the decade in the late 90's. Originally it started off with DJ's such as Paul Murphy and guests and I ended up as a resident fairly shortly afterwards with DJ's such as Paul Tarpey, Aran and Ray from Shake and lots more. As a self proclaimed non expert in latin music it was challenging and i used spin a lot of latin based soul, funk, disco, house and hip-hop with the more conventional flavours from South America and even New York. It was a fantastic night and I learnt a lot from it-This Friday there is a similar night running in the Pavilion called Carnivale and all proceeds go to charity. Dress up and party like it's the dead of summer as we combine Carnivale with Jam on Friday in the Pavilion!
