THE WEEKEND 80's MIX

DJ LOLLIPOP's 1981 TOP TUNE MEDLEY

The man known as DJ Lollipop is back again with another one of his excellent Top Tune Medleys. Lollipop has ever so kindly let me have this mix before he has posted on his own site.

Lollipop writes;

"This is the first record I ever made. It is a 1981 Top Tune Medley. It is a collection of all the big dancefloor filling hits from my first nightclub in Chicago called "POETS" on 9 West Division Street. When I produced this first medley, I was still learning all the tricks of editing. Also, all the songs used were hits during 1981. Some were released at the end of 1980, but my production was a sonic snapshot of what was packing dancefloors in Chicago that year. I was 17 years old at the time and working with a fake ID that said I was 22 - I still can't believe I got away with it. lol!

What fun. I was so niave. I just wanted to spin records for a packed dancefloor.

I hope this brings back lots of great memories for you and the guests to your blog. Enjoy!
