Ageing UK Radio DJ and Arch Tory Shell Suited Fool, Sir Jimmy Saville
reckons he was, back in the forties. Personally, I am sceptical.

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.
If I remember correctly it was probably some of the early Jamacian Soundsystems
that did what could be called mixing. But there is also the early rap dj's in
the late 70's that were experimenting as well. Someone has probably compiled a
history of mixing somewhere on the net.

I suggest reading Last Night a DJ Saved My Life by Bill Brewster and Frank
Broughton. It has one of the best histories on DJing and it's entertaining
to boot.

If I remember
If memory serves me right, dont they show a dj mixing disco records on
