Wow! This takes me back a bit. So many old friends…some RIP, But I was gassed to see my younger self fiending over Superman's cape and Ortofon Concorde cartridges at 20.40. 36 years and I'm still a geek!
Me and my crew Shock Box were in electro rock, were not part of the main acts so no one would know. Sometimes history remembers the biggest noise. I basically started of at one o (10) club Catford, then much later ended up at electric ballrooms, where I bump into rock steady crew. My first crew were from penge called street system. I later teamed up with shock box who were a breakers crew from Bromley. We would often go Covent garden and charing x station underpass which had a nice floor. One of my great friends was Michael forsyth who was a great popper (Sidewalk Crew) Anyway just to say it was fun, but just a journey in life. Still dancing though shifless shuffle London 2019
peace,nice to see MAXIMUM SCRATCH of the MASTERMIND ROADSHOW as superman(shortly after this max and SECRET DAVE, to be known later as DAVE VJ went on to form the hardrock soul movement) DJ STREETS AHEAD(R.I.P.) kicks things off with the 122bpm workout from THE WILLSDEN DODGERS…THE FAMILY QUEST RAPPERS deliver the goods,and the late great SIPHO(R.I.P.) AND YANGKEE D with treble and bass,basically THE SPATS CREW,GRANDMASTER RICHIE RICH(EX SIDEWALK MEMBER)loose bruce and his ropey little firm got booed for the obvious gimmicks they tried to pull,this posted piece of hip hop history is as it was,shame about that cnut bambataa he ain't walkin' off into the sunset that's for sure….
