Party Vibe

Evenson Allen’s lost a few dreads and gained a few kilos since I last saw the Rat Pack in person.

but that was around 1990… the station I was on at the time (first time I had DJ’d to an audience) used to share the same tower blocks for studio with Fantasy FM so we would all look out for DTI (now Ofcom) and warn each other (via the record shops, text messages weren’t invented yet and only really rich folk and drug dealers could afford mobiles!) if we saw the unmarked cars around. You could tell them apart from metpol CID because there were more Asians in the DTI – they got multicultural before the cops because the other Asian boys what did obey their parents had no problem with joining up with govt to judge the ones what didn’t. Which made eluding them more of a challenge as obviously they would know all the same tricks as I would for trying to look less suspicious in a tower block you didn’t live in (such as putting your records in a shopping bag or even old grannies trolley).

fair play to them they are still around and alive and working together though!
