Hello Atlanta, my name is Jamie Brown. Im a former
member/employee of, "The New York, 84 King St. Paradise
Garage". I was introduced to House Music in 1976, by a
friend, who had been on the scene since the mid sixties. I
was seventeen and hooked! I became a part of the New
York/Jersey club scenes. DJ's like Nicky Siano-Larry Levan ran his
lights-Tony Humphries, Larry Paterson, Francois K.,Tee Scott
and *David Todd from Philly-who taught Larry Levan how to
play. Places like, Al Murphy's Zanzibar, Docks, Melons, The
Loft, Buttermilk Bottoms and Reade Street. These were my
experiences!
Paradise Garage was king. It was magical heaven! And
still, for many of us, those precious memories live within
us. We was family! We danced to the worlds greatest sound
system with the worlds greatest DJ,
Larry Levan. We was spoiled! Today, some forty plus years
later, the 'house sound, is still breathing strong, with a
heavy pulse! When the Paradise Garage finally closed on
9-27-87, Larry said,"One day we will all party together
again". That day is here! I created LEGENDARY NIGHTS, to
celebrate the 'Spirit' of House Music- globally! I plan to
bring the most gifted, creative DJ's from around the world
to Atlanta. August 15th, I present to you - Volume 2-"The
Moment of Truth!", hosted by DJs Kemit and Kai Alce.
This will be a legendary night to remember! -J.B
