Who said old school is old hat?
Every summer in Crotona Park in the Bronx there is a succession of (free) block party jams featuring the REAL old school of hip hop.
Hosted by Grandmaster Caz, these jams bring back the spirit of the party funk of the 70's with such legends as Grandmaster Flash, Kid Capri, Grand Wizard Theodore spinning the breaks. Yes they still continue even today - and why not?
Here's a vid of Flash cutting and scratching from a recent jam.
Now I don't have to imagine what it was like to hear him cut live back in the day at the parks and the b-ball courts.
