I've been DJing over 30 years! When I first learned, I used to try to sound like the Grand Master Flash! The first record I learned to spin was "Good Times." I STILL feel fortunate to actually see this living legend in Crotona Park 2009. Never knew we were the same height. Much respect Grand Master!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Flash for keeping hip hop alive. Ive been listening to you since 1985 and you were /are a big inspiration to me getting involved with spinning records and breakbeats.

@24Adrian24 Yes your words are so correct.. i wish i had that camera from back in the day.. so many parts of my youth i could have captured..those days we will never witness ever again.. the music just that time period as one unit was just MAGICAL!

[24Adrian24]

It would be real nice if you could incorporate some pictures or even some video of those days/parties, to give the viewers some real visuals of what things were like. I'm sure if you knew what you know now, you would have 1000's of pictures. I know I would have been walking with a camera capturing my youth on film if I could do it again! Some beautiful days!!
