Just Vinyl

In a world of Pro Tools and mp3 mixing, you have to respect the people who throw a party named Just Vinyl. Pure and simple, sometimes life doesn't need the bells and whistles, just a decent sound system and a 2 record mixer. It was a small gathering, again because of building regulations, but the music was heart wrenching and soulful. It's very nice to have Greg Cuoco back on the scene after such a long disappearance. I could not make it to Aqua Booty on Thursday at Le Lupanar, but I hear it was quite a spectacle. So last night I made it to Mixx lounge on 7th Ave to get a doze of vinyl.
The leaves were falling down, the sky was crying...was playing when I got there and I haven't heard this haunting beauty in years. Great taste in music and a collection of rare records like those of Greg Cuoco can't stay locked up for long, they need to breathe. He went on to play Butterflies, by Alicia Keys (Sanchez Mix) and then The Cure and The Cause by Fish go Deep, that summed up the theme of the night. Don't take your love away, your love away....
I must have been lucky last night because that one of my favorite songs and it was played at another party I went to after, as if the DJs were tugging at my heart strings, reminding me of what really doesn't need a reminder. There is only one cure for it and it's music.
As usual the vibe at Greg's parties is so relaxed, you feel like you are at your best friend's living room and he is playing some records just for you. Great to have you back Mr. Cuocco, thank you for the soulful set of classics. I was deeply touched by the performance.
