Aye : As I said earlier I agree, people are not beyond salvation. From what I can gather Bill had listeners asking for it...leading to Soul Generation.

Nay : As for the quote from Last Night A DJ Saved My Life re: the two different DJs contrasted in the quote - do you think for every of the former kind of DJ theres equal numbers of the latter? I would have thought there's quite a few more of the former DJs and less of the latter DJs.

Yay : "As for playing choons that have become "popular" my attitude is if you actually still like playing that track and the crowd will enjoy it then play it."

I like that comment and attitude, and I don't think you can really fault this point.

Thoughts?

QUITE (none / 0) (#20)

Yes I think people can be 'helped', I prefer to describe it as showing them what they don't know they already like, or giving them another format that they can relate to more easily.

The quote from 'Last Night A DJ Saved My Life' (wow, someone else has this?!) I think aims to illustrate the two forms of DJ, as opposed to suggesting a 50/50 split. That said, I agree, there must be far more of the former. If only for the fact that there is a much larger audience to satisfy (or make money from, says the cynic in me). After all, 'popular' music is just that.
