I think Phill Grasso is credited (or takes credit) for being the first DJ to
have a continous mix of music.  This would have been in the mid sixties.  He
was the resident at Santuary right when the disco thang began to get big.
Check "Last night a DJ saved my Life" (someone help me with author), the
book has a definitive history of DJ'ing.

Peace,

Subject: [313] first mix


hey... my boss asked me last night, and I didn't know.

who (or when) first decided to mix records and figured out how to cue and
x-fade, etc? what equipment did they use? ie, i assume there weren't mixers
with crossfaders then.
