Jazzy On the Mix



Here's Part 2 of the Jazzy Jay how to scratch vid that Monk posted earlier. This oughta give you an idea of how it's gonna go down on NYE - uh, except w/o Bambaataa, the b-boying, and the guy with the white hair and suspenders hanging out by the booth (unless Monk plans an extreme makeover w/in the next 24 hours). Other than that it's gonna be just as live, if not live-r, yo.
