This set is dedicated not only to this particular area but my best friend, DJ Magic. When I was still stationed in Germany, he had relocated to Reston , VA & while he had a day gig, he also DJed & worked at 12 Inch Records which was located on P Street at DuPont Circle. So he would send me some joints, then when I came to stay with him, I went with him everywhere; all the clubs, etc. So while we are plugging away in D.C., I wasn't in Chicago to see first-hand Hip-Hop take over as the predominate music of choice. Everytime we came home, we would always go up north & out south, but we went to hear House so when I came back home to stay....it was 2 different musical worlds & I was very confused. Anyway, this collection of records was some of the stuff Magic & I bought(plus now I get to play it on my new toys). Salute & a hat tip to my brother for this journey.
