One for the late night crew-Monk Higgins

One for the late night crew

"So keep abreast to the GangStarr conquest
Underground ruffnecks pounds of respect
I've never been afraid to let loose my speech
My brothers know I kick the code of the streets"

DEEP-did a sunday in the Torch, now Fionnbarras, in about 97, spinning jazz and soul like this-i'll have my Guru tribute up tomorrow!

One for the late night crew-Gang Starr

One for the late night crew

I'm digging deep in the crates for Guru and have about 100 vinyl records in front of me as i prepare a 3 hour special on Saturday-quite simply, I admit i would not be spinning records without Gang Starr, who helped elevate hip-hop to a level on a par with the greatest jazz and soul. Rest in Peace

"Ill be taking care of business regardless
And when it comes to rhyming you know Im hitting hardest
So you can kick dirt but in the end you'll feel pain
You little sucker, there aint no shame in my game"

I'm gone through an old Philly phase these last few days one of my favourite soul singers and one of my favourite albums this stands up there with anything the greats of the 70's did and that's saying something.

    I'm a DJ from Cork in Ireland. I work with RedFM, presenting Red Drive, The Hitlist and my specialist show, Black on Red. I'm probably best known for being one of the main hip-hop/soul DJ's in Cork and Ireland. I've been DJing in Cork since the early 90's in legendary clubnights such as Sweat in Sir Henrys, Mor Disco, Free La Funk, Yo Latino and also Jam and Jam Junior at the Savoy and the Pavilion. I've also held down long term residencies at clubs around Ireland such as Brown Sugar at the Kitchen in Dublin, U-Turn at Ri Ra in Dublin, Jazz Juice at the GPO in Galway, Thompson Garage in Belfast, the Soul Clinic, Dee-Bop, Meltdown and Mo Bounce in Limerick and i've played abroad in the United States and the U.K. on numerous occasions. I also write a music column for the Evening Echo and i'm a regular contributor to the U.K.'s Blues and Soul, the longest running black music magazine in the world. These days i run the Pavilion, a music venue in Cork, which hosts my Jam night every few Fridays http://www.pavilioncork.com also you can catch me at http://djstevieg.podomatic.com
