Yo,Miller 4th 502nd! What are the names of those joints that played after Play That Beat,Mr. DJ at 0:07 and 0:30?

[miller4th502nd]

@oldschoolbx1970 simple .. at 0:07 it's "Two Sisters - High Noon" .. and and 0:30 it's "Awesome Foursome - Funky Soul Makossa"

[doublej999]

tight skills - what happened to these gys ?



[miller4th502nd]

@doublej999 They still alive and in music business, but not as "The Latin Rascals". Albert is working as music producer, and Tony is working as DJ in Clubs and events around the world.

They need to search the archives and put all the great mastermixes on a complilation CD,this is some memories here of what N.Y radio used to sound like,now it's just garbage,Hot 97 and power 103 suck.

I hear you. I don't even waste my time listening to New york radio anymore, and get this. I use to be a Kiss fm mastermixer in the late 1990's & early 00's. I was on the air Saturday night from 9pm to 12pm MIdnight with the Duke Johnny Allen. The best days of radio was from 1979 to 1984 when Frankie Crocker was on WBLS & Shep Pettibone & Latin Rascals on Kiss fm.

@doublej999 after their radio editing days ( 83 to 85 ), they pioneered the new york freestyle sound, producing the cover girls, tka, noel, nocera, tina b, safire and making a few club hits themselves with "arabian knights" and "don't let me be misunderstood". they broke up and went their seperate ways around 89 or 90. Tony Moran has been singing , djing and producing. Albert Cabrera has been editing.

@lentiniburns mixed ... 1. George Kranz - Din Daa Daa | 2. Awesome Forsome - Funky Soul Makossa

@miller4th502nd - Miller, what's that mix after Shannon on 7.03?

[basementbomber]

I can't recall if there was ever any pre- announcement when The Latin Rascals would be on the air. Maybe they did if you listened early enough.

I always tuned in on Saturday nights where you had either Red Alert, or Chuck Chillout switching every other week (i believe) from 11pm to 2:30 am.

If you turned on the radio, and you realized The RASCALS were coming through your speakers, u went scrambling to find a blank tape.

Which is why NO ONE has a complete Rascals mix from KISS FM today.

yo man this is the mastermix of all time for me. I found this tape on TDK in my house when i was 11yrs old and still got it to this day, and fixed it a million times.This classic made me the mixtape DJ i am today. thanks for this clear sound, DJ RAMON,Richmond,VA
